Gotta love internet videos. Can completely swamp viewers with one side of the story, play parady music while they quote snippets of the other side's discussion, and make their viewers come away with a "Holier than thou" view of the issue where they assume the other side is full of loons.
Entertaining, yes.
Reasonable to think you can learn anything at all from them or that they add to the extremely complex issues that they "address", no.
However, both sides have seen it's effectiveness and use this kind of thing to it's utmost. It's why our biggest problem in America is that we have a completely polarized electorate that think the other side are complete idiots. This leads to gridlock in congress where there is no compromise because to have a discussion with the other side is seen as immoral (or even evil). Let's celebrate the gridlock and inability of democracies everywhere to deal with the very real debt crises that are going on because governments are shut down as politicians yell at each other.
Issues are complex, both sides have excellent points, and a rational discussion with a bit of humility would do wonders. If we don't figure that out soon, we'll all have the kind of open and free policies they do in China.
