Hook template
Steal this for your own video
but what about ?
- — He was a hardworking small business owner and this isn't fair — but what about the zoning laws that only crush small businesses?
- — Politics aside she was a mother just trying to afford rent — but what about the housing policies they keep voting against?
- — We all agree kids deserve safety — but what about the gun legislation they've blocked for 20 years?

Hook and payoff
The promise the opener makes, and how the video pays it back

Payoff
The Kinetic Verdict: The audio delivers the final punchline ('I don't like [X]'), perfectly synchronized with the creator breaking the fourth wall or making a specific facial expression to confirm the text's argument.

Okayyyy true no one should go through that. So "politics aside" are you going to ALSO post about the kids who got shot at school today??? Or push for stricter gun laws so that no one has to go through this? Oh, you aren't?!?
Transcript
Do you like hardcore punk rock? The answer to that is no. I think she's gonna ruin our house. I don't like republicans.
