People who genuinely believe that short form content is good because 1 min is all you need to convey the most important information about just about anything (including educational/scientific topics) terrify me.

Like no, 1 min is not enough time to provide any nuance on any topic. At best you're getting an oversimplified, useless factoid and at worst you're missing crucial details and end up believing in potentially harmful misconceptions.

It's scary that people are actually unwilling to spend 10 minutes learning something because "it could have been condensed down to 1 minute, I respect my time and brain too much to bother with this"

Like just one of my uni classes takes 90 min and I need a whole semester of such classes to even learn the very *basics* of a subject. No you're not getting ANY value from 1 min no matter how condensed the content is..
