Ok the guy is 100% biased, he states his point of view. But how does that make all of his points moot ??
People need to understand that bias is not innately bad. Doing something, completely bias free, is virtually impossible. As humans, the vast majority of our existance is based on intellectually ingesting the messages of our environment. When it comes to complex intellegence, we are the cumulative result of thousands of years of development, which in turns bends and molds our perception, behavior and complex thinking. Seeing as bias is a predisposition, it is a
parallel with what we are. To successfully and
completely remove bias, where it is applicable, would require circumventing thousands of years, (or easily more), of development with a pure and unbiased definition of "bias"- i.e., largely impossible.
What is important is that we acknowledge our predispositions and explain them. If they are logically founded, (logic being developmentally biased, as well), then we call them "Sensible Judgements".
What this video portrays, largely, is sensible judgement. Outstanding bias is almost always declared and the rest is explained qualitatively, which is the most we can logically expect.
