Is the Youtuber Thunderf00t a shill and/or a phony?

I am asking a genuine question here since I am low IQ and this guy shows up often in my recommendations and he seems to claim everything but nuclear energy is bad or fake, seems suspicious.

I suppose you guys know better.

Well I dont know, I guess his videos popped up since I was watching anti feminist stuff, so I am not into /sci/ stuff, I came here to ask because something seems fishy about those videos, but since I have no idea I wanted to ask.

He's becoming sloppy. His arguments sometimes are not logical at all. His recent video on aluminium fuel cells didn't "debunk" anything at all, just rambling about how it wasn't a special technology (even though the inventors never claimed it was) and that it wasn't a battery (again, not claimed by the inventors). Still his fanboys suck it all up though.

Also I think he has ADHD or is losing it because his videos these days are an hour long with 50 tangents.

He used to mildly based, now he's a cringeworthy nerd with an ego that doesn't line up with his downward trajectory.

Clamping the umbilical cord before the completion of palcental transfusion cuts off oxygen to the infant and causes permanent brain damage and developmental stunting. Clinical trials found measureable decrease in myelination at 4 months, and lower IQ.

So yes. You're born, you're stuck existing and you've got what you've got, and yet we let these clowns muse about when they should clamp off your oxygen and iron supply. It;s absurd. You leave the damn thing UNTIL IT'S DONE, then MILK IT IF APPLICABLE.

In conclusion, I find that:
- DCC is a clear winner for preterm children
- There is no statistically validated negative impact to DCC in healthy neonates
- Evidence of negative impact to ICC is both lacking and disputed
One problem I note is that the definition of DCC is not set. I suspect that if you ensured DCC means >= 5 minutes, you'd get better results, so you should focus on looking for relevant literature at this level.

You have to look at a lot of literature, the underlying physiology, and synthesize this into a general picture of the way of things. The difficulty with your request is it requires me to either include a wall of links with summaries, or write my own review. The brain myelination studies are fairly clear, and a few papers demonstrate an effect lasting longer than 3 months.

This is just one part of a large constellation. Many things are on the list.

>You have to look at a lot of literature, the underlying physiology, and synthesize this into a general picture of the way of things.
That's why I asked for literature overviews. There are no doubt thousands of papers about the topic and it's even harder to sift through them because related-term papers included, they will surely number in the tens of thousands.
At least a few examples to start with should be helpful.
> it requires me to either include a wall of links with summaries
No, it requires 3 good papers and that's it. You have provided 0. At best 0.5 since despite the low sample count in that study, it's still not THAT low that I would discount it irrevocably, but I'd only accept it in light of other studies to basically add to the sample count.
>or write my own review
You're just trying to find excuses now.
> and a few papers demonstrate an effect lasting longer than 3 months.
None of which you have provided.
> Many things are on the list.
I went through every one of the papers you posted and found nothing to support your claim outright. In fact, some of the papers you posted directly contradicted your claim, suggesting you have not actually read any of the papers you posted here.

You've missed the point of his videos completely. He's literally making videos "debunking" the cringeworthy ego filled shills selling their bullshit products to the world.

There's a reason he picks on products that have raised $1 milllion on kickstarter and/or have gotten news channels and universities to shill their garbage and he won't pick on people who sell things like telescopes and microwaves for $50 built in their garage for free. Next time, maybe watch the content before complaining about it.
