Because this is a forum, as the mod above stated, and not your instagram feed. If you want to engage in a discussion forum add discussion, spaming random videos isn't how forums are designed to work.

The guy says at like the 5:25 mark. "Where are we in two years if they steal the election again?."
You're right about the car bomb thing not being in the first one. That's in the full video.
Kari says "You should go public with this."
Then the guy goes "Oh, no no no no. If I did that I'd turn the key in my car and then pwooof (fireball sound)."

I have no reason to believe a video link posted by some rando is particularly worth my time.
If you do not provide a reason, that's not going to change. I have a half-dozen videos in links already waiting for me to watch them, and weeks of podcasts to catch up on.
If you don't give me a reason to think it's more worth my time than other ways to educate myself, I'm not likely to bother.
BECAUSE IT IS POLITE

I am not going to argue with you on this. I gave a video to further discussion, not be a nice guy. It was polite of me to give a source, I do not need to explain the source when the source openly explains it themselves. This argument is stupid.

Then don't spam the thread with what are functionally junk links.
Post a Tl;Dw

👆👆 THIS, a thousand times this 👆👆
Unless it's in a videos thread I ain't clicking on a video link which doesn't include a short tl:dw. I have better things to do than play link content roulette.
Most of us are here to read and discuss.
A lot of us are in places where we can't watch videos, like an office or something.
And finally, we don't need a huge detailed summary when you post this stuff. Just a quick blurb on what the video is about, so we can choose if we want to watch it.
In this case, all it needed was "quick 5 minute video of leaked audio concerning Kari Lake and the establishment's attempt to bribe her"
Boom. That's it. Super low effort on your part, and everyone is happy.
Do you HAVE to do it? No. But people would appreciate it if you did, and they'd be more likely to watch the content you posted.
We don't want to click a random video, with no idea what it's about. I pretty much always ignore those, because so many videos are just trying to be a certain length. You end up with a lot of BS like Tim Pool spending 20-30 minutes talking about a headline and only 1-2 minutes of the video has anything useful.
And judging by how many people have asked this of you, just consider that it's polite forum etiquette. No, you don't have to do it. It's just the right thing to do.
As for me, 90% of the time I am on this site, it's for a quick 5-15 minute burst. I can read a lot in that time. I can't watch many videos. Additionally where I usually am at, I CAN'T watch videos because it's a quiet place and it would be pretty rude and unprofessional. A quick summary tells me if I should come back and watch it later once i am in a proper environment.

No you spammed the thread with a random video and refuse to engage in discussion.
Because some times were on break at work instead of being at home and if you have a shitty data plan like I do, playing a video of anything will cost you a fuck load of money. That video you posted? On my data plan thats 7 dollars cash. Text very affordable actual audio and moving pictures expensive.

You're absolutely right, thanks for the timestamp. The car bomb is a joke though: before that he says "I'd be dead forever" (death isn't normally temporary) and afterward he says "I like my car" (not a logical priority). He is now experiencing the political death he was afraid of.

It really isn't a joke in AZ. people have in fact been assassinated by car bomb there. AZ has had a lot of influence from the mob and the cartels in there politics.

I hadn't heard about that reaction, but AZ is a one party consent state when it comes to recording conversations (and shame on CA, DE, FL, IL, MD, MA, MT, NV, NH, PA, WA for not being the same)
