Flashiness is Inversely Proportional to Clue

The more cut scenes and hype and shit you encounter in the world and on the Internet the more likely the person or persons producing it is absolutely full of shit and making up for it with kitschy crap that draws in people without the ability to think critically. You can always tell these people because they will have nothing of value actually out there and focus on things that draw in more viewers for no other reason than getting more viewers. Inevitably, they will peddle their sponsorships on you, they’ll pretend to have authority, but will have no actual experience nor solid research to draw on. You just have to get good spotting these types of people in all areas of life and just plain ignore them. Look harder for the people who are too busy getting work done and producing value than make yet another cut-scene with them in a bathroom that only people from Idiocracy would think is funny. Unfortunately, the world is full of happy, exuberant, clueless people just like it always has been. But you can take it upon yourself to thwart this by producing authentic content about things you are learning in that way.
