Not sure why you do not understand it, but I will explain it to you. Some people like to argue and debate, and some have fun debating paranoid conspiracy people (9/11 threads are much more potent examples of this).
The poker is regulated and it is also analyzed so deeply by the marketplace that riggies do not have a clue as to how watched it is. If you saw some of the detailed analysis some of the players I work with do on their own databases and analyzing opponent's plays you would be totally stunned at the information.
Riggies operate in a world where action hands exist and doomswitches and boomswitches exist which are fun, but they are so simplistic that anyone who does real work on the database side of the equation (and I am not pretending to be a freak like some players I know) laugh at the riggie beliefs because it takes them about 5 seconds to disprove with their databases (not that riggies ever believe that as we saw with spade's billion hand study).
As to the gain one gets to debate stupid people? Frankly, it's fun once in a while to tweak people who cannot think logically, but I at least try to instill some of my snark with actual advice (which is generally ignored). Many shills here do low brow it a bit with the ******ation calls, but everyone has their own style. We all do it free of charge (sorry to pop that conspiracy belief). If I got paid to make fun of paranoid people I would not hide that fact, I would ask for a raise since I am pretty good at it.
Hope this helped answer some of your questions. Feel free to think logically about some of the points I made on those videos and other topics or go with the easy path and get into an "oh yeah, yeah " match with other shills on the topic of your IQ.
All the best.
