Your offhand dismissal of citizen science with an anecdote about an endless stair video edit is not a well principled application of critical thinking.

One has to set prejudice to the side and examine the claim being made to apply criticl thinking.

This is a spectacular misread of my comment on practically every level. I noted the absence of numerous contextual things we typically, appropriately(!), rely on as indicators of credibility, gave an example of unsourced video illustrating what can go wrong, and emphasized that I wasn't dismissing it outright! If this is a words-mean-things conversation then those are meaningful points you haven't even pretended to address.
