The above videos are the equivalent of opinion pieces in a newspaper. Like many articles and videos around the internet they present a strong viewpoint (sometimes even sensationalist) where they pick and choose specific supporting evidence. Headlines are generally meant to grab your attention (clickbait!) and you should always consider where the information is coming from, the research that has gone into it, who has produced it and why. With any opinion piece, as a viewer or reader you should think critically about the ideas. You may agree with some and disagree with other points that are presented. You may want more information.
