SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

That might be because the video has a lot of cuts in between him speaking a question and a person saying "yes" - so it doesn't show what the question is that the person is saying "yes" to. I'd be curious to see the original unedited video for specifically what each person is actually responding to. I'm sure it's also bad, but accuracy is important.
I'm sure he's doing a Project Veritas and has the unedited video ready to deploy if anyone says he deceptively lied. Then he'll get 10 times the eyeballs watching the unedited video than he normally would have. There is also the fear of lawsuits if any of the responders got death threats for their comments.

I'm sure you're right about what will generate the most eyeballs/clicks, but it's frustrating if one just wants to see what the actual unedited question and response were.

Or (I know it's a crazy idea but bear with me) the video is edited to make it shorter, and the faces are blurred so as not to drive any "hate" towards the imbeciles responding.

Then of course your (both of you) baseless conspiracy theory could be right.
