ABANDON HOPE SUGGESTION THREAD
🕑 Added 2020-06-08 04:56:19 +0000 UTC
It's time to ABANDON HOPE once more. And as usual, I will rely on you guys to help me find shit to watch. So, here's the criteria.
1. Please include a brief description of what your link contains and why you feel it would be a good fit for the show.
2. Try to avoid sending in excessively long videos, as the format makes it difficult to tackle them. If you do send such a video, perhaps include a minute-marker to let me know when the relevent information is conveyed.
3. Please keep in mind that these videos are designed to cause despair, so hopefully or optimistic topics are unwelcome.
4. Keep being amazing, as I know each and every one of you are.

At what point do you feel that were entitled to use our 2nd ammendment against the policr invasion. Considering their place of business is public property, would we ever be entitled to evoke our 3rd amendment rights to give them no quarter?
CS Joseph might be running a bit of a scam by means of unscientifically sound psychological methods for personality typing. His videos are on YouTube and there he describes his ‘method’ for personality type, which he developed himself. DFF could maybe do an episode on him and his method... if it is correct it can have serious implications on society. If it’s incorrect, he’s running a scam.

"What Does Separation of Church and State Mean?" - PragerU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_yS0X5s0lo -- The video is 6 minutes and I believe it's obvious what their position is going to be. They use the hackneyed talking point that the constitution does not *explicitly* state the phrase "separation of church and state", therefore there shouldn't be any.

Terry Crews on Twitter is talking about black supremacy. What does it mean? You’ll have to read his latest tweets yourself and figure it out because I am not sure what to think. At a time during BLM protests, it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on an uncommon perspective. https://twitter.com/terrycrews

Here's a list of 'woke' questions we "should be asking ourselves" about this pandemic. I considered commenting with my own line by line refutation, but I think a response would benefit from your artistic touch. I imagine you could have fun with several of them (#26 in particular 🙄). The utter stupidity of the arguments paired with the comically condescending tone sure has me abandoning hope. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CfehbUKYO9f8xrhtAx174Ad5wopRdP7w/view?usp=drivesdk

“Children being brought looting” https://youtu.be/D3Rl6CrN8qM At 3:49 in this video you can see a mom, followed by her child, at the Minneapolis riots on May 27th. The kid had goggles (presumably to protect from tear gas), and was most likely brought to help mommy with the looting. What’s your opinion on the riots, and now very unlikely revolution’s affect on kids? Should they be fighting the war with us?
