I could hardly follow. Sounded like those disclaimers after commercial ads. Would have been better to go a bit slower and explain every chapter a bit (for example 30 s for each chapter).
The possibility to dive into this more thoroughly is not eliminated by this video. I suspect Medhi made this to grab the attention of people who don't have the patience or attention span to watch an in depth video.
Seriously, all these negative comments about a quick intro into something anyone can research, as there are hundreds of summaries and analyses online. If he talks too fast, use subtitles. People need to lighten up a little. Sheesh!
Very entertaining. But can you now do a 5 minute one that actually informs. I think I'd have to watch your 2 min summary at least a dozen times to taken in what it says.
It was fun to listen. May be to gain some views/likes on social media. But there should be a supplemental video or a talk to discuss the 30 chapters in detail so that people understand what they really mean.
Great succinct summary. You did well. I'd like to think we're sheltered in New Zealand but we are heavily reliant on international trade and international relationships. The only response I have is.. Wtf? How can even half of m that be real!? Terrifying.
It is an major policy document of the far right that has huge negative implications for the country if Donald Trump is elected. I think it deserves a more through and thoughtful response. I welcome your commentary and your insights. Take time and share it with us.
I don't know, I think the 2-minute clock is effective. Helps people whose attention span is short. Really packs all the HORROR into a nice, tight byte.
I've read all 922 pages and Mehdi breaks it down where I concur that he avoids the word salad coming out of the mouths of these conservative fellatrixes. You don't need 3 more minutes to understand what is relatively simple. Wake up people this is no joke so get with the program and stop acting like a bunch of aggrieved MAGATs unless you are.
I love it! I remember the 60 second rants when he has his show on MSNBC- very entertaining and informative! It underscores the fact that news media works in sound bites and those who seek to truly understand in depth have to speak fast! I don’t think this quick video is for those of us who already listen to Medhi’s show or otherwise stay informed. I think there is an audience out there of young folks who would learn a lot from this! It serves as a good introduction to what Project 2025 is at least, and maybe could get some people interested who otherwise wouldn’t be, given how much craziness there is packed into it! Please share it with the less well-informed! After all it’s just 2 mins!
Why the outrage at this excellent summary? Yes it’s fast, and fun— and will be great on Youtube! It’s extremely powerful to realize what an insane number of nightmarish actions the 2025 monsters want to unleash, and this format points that up.
Don’t worry, lovers of seriousness— I’m confident that Mehdi can and will be tackling this document in detail.
I'd be happy if Mehdi wanted to do this in one minute while riding a unicycle and juggling some bowling pins, whatever it takes to get this to those low-info voters out there.
And I LOVE the witty side of Mehdi. I felt it was more on display when he was at MSNBC— but I imagine he’s been feeling more responsibility to carry all the heavy stuff all the time at his own channel. It’s great to see him stretch out and show his brilliant brain in this way now and then. Also, he could probably get a side gig as an auctioneer!
I would prefer you to take five minutes and do it with more authority.
I'd love a 30 min deep dive video

More authority? B/c 3 more minutes would definitely give Mehdi that-. Joy Reid will be doing a deep dive. I hope she has enough 'authority' for you.

I also suspect they don't realize they can adjust the playback speed on the videos.
Sure, people without much patience or attention span vote too.

Try listening at 0.5 speed
Or just read the subtitles.

Deena - not helpful, do your part & just read the 900+ pages on your own.
Dang, how many takes did you have to do?

Precisely! And he DID it precisely!
I know right! Incredible, thats for sure!
Had to slow it down to 0.5x speed to listen! Wow!
Pls do a slow version
Try listening at 0.5 soeed
Or read it with subtitles.

It is just a lesson in fast reading. Not helpful
