I don't suppose you've thought about the possibility that the people he's "interviewing" are saying exactly what they know will generate a response because it's obvious he's not an actual journalist and is just looking for gotcha moments for his social media feeds.

Then of course there's the fact that he could easily have talked to hundreds of soldiers who didn't say what he wanted, and he's just cherry-picked the small number of soldiers that give him what he wants for his social media feeds.

But that would require people to think critically. Or at least just think.
