Normally the comments on that video are something I could laugh along with, but reading them after the article is... sobering.

The interesting way is the way the pinned post primes people to attack without it being obvious. Basically, they use assumptive language - "is this just how it's always been. Modern marriage or traditional marriage?" assumes that this two minute clip shows this couple's entire relationship.

And that kind of language to "get discussion going" is well know to those aiming for views.
