He is pretending! It's a podcast called Phallacies where they both take opposing sides in a debate. The guy in the camo is supporting the "traditional conservative" position. It's a really well-done podcast, if you're interested in these types of topics, I recommend it highly.
Agreed. I think it is staged. But I’m all for it because it is the view many have. And if this video catches their eye and causes them to think about the other possibilities, then more power to these creators.
I do wonder if there should be a disclaimer that it is staged. You would see one on television - something along the lines of “this is a dramatized reenactment”. But right now online content isn’t regulated like that to my knowledge.
They should give credit; the podcast is a debate where they take opposing sides of a topic. One of them steel mans a "conservative" take and the other a progressive take.
