12. Nope. I'm not mistaken. No mater what was at the other end... the mystery-link itself was clickbait.

You accuse me of having a "heavy axe to grind" ?? You accuse me of being "obsessed" ?? You accuse me of being "invulnerable to reason"?? Oh, FFS!

The "title" you're defending was context-free. Your attempt to help-along the OP by providing an after-the-fact summary was a nice touch, but that did not change the fact that the original link, as presented, is clickbait. Perhaps it would change things IF the OP had made the effort to edit his own post and add such a description after seeing that the video had been restricted. But he didn't... so the clickbait label is accurate.

Now, let's circle back to the personal comments you made about me. I've made no such accusations about you, or your motivations, or your mental capacity. I wonder why anyone would think it's okay to do the same about me. There's no need to get personal or analytical or insulting. I've explained my position carefully and I stuck to the facts.

It's been my experience that if someone starts name-calling or insulting, that's a good indicator that they realize that they are debating from a position of weakness and they feel that they've already lost the argument.

Oh well, "my friend"... Bye.
