It's a great idea and well executed, I hope you continue! (Even though I firmly disagree with the epistemology described in the post.) Please note that there are a few spelling mistakes (seperate, privilige), maybe you can fix those.

Thank you for the feedback! I do plan to make many more, but unfortunately, these videos will easily have 2 or more months between each other, unless I can get the income to support myself working on them near full time. This little project took >80 hours of work.

As of now, I don't plan to go back and fix small errors, like misspellings. It's possible, and I do apreciate you pointing them out where they exist, but it's a lot of trouble to do.

Do you have someone to help you for future videos? I mean, just one other person to help you would probably cut down on mistakes like misspellings quite a bit.

I don't really, though I did show the video to a couple people while making it, at different in-progress points, but there was never the specific instruction to look for spelling errors. If there is anyone here interesting in joining such a group for official "proofreading" purposes, comment here or send me a PM. I'll get to organizing a mailing list/subreddit/something to suit the purpose.
