Oh man, when they started ranting from 1:50 onwards I just about puked.  They called the restoration of the original versions a "waste of time."

Jesus.

In GL's point of view.

His point of view is wrong then.

Wrong opinions?

An opinion is open to moral scrutiny.  For instance, I believe that having the point of view that all books should be confiscated and burned, is morally wrong - despite that it is viewpoint that has appeared many times around the world.  Similarly, although less dramatic, the idea that preserving a piece of history is "a waste of time", is in my opinion also wrong, for similar reasons.  It reveals a surprising lack of respect for the importance of history, education, and the roots of freedom, in the person who said it.

Unfortunately, young people who've grown up on the internet have the mistaken impression that every opinion that tumbles from their mouths is valid and worthy of a gold star because "we're all entitled to our opinions and you can't fault someone just because you think differently." Oh, and forget arguments of morality because don't you know that "everything is relative"?
