Round 1
why do people say the world is fucked. Are they in their emo kid phase? really? the world is fucked? no. it's not that bad. firstly, there's certainly more good than bad. If one guy gets murdered, kidnapped or whatever, do you see the hundreds or thousands of people coming together to help? If an accident happens, do you see all the thousands of people offering condolences, showing empathy and sympathy? If someone needs help, do you see all the people that come forward to help, if they do realise help is needed? Charities can rack up a ton of money really quickly, and it all comes from empathy. Maybe not all the time there's this much help, but certainly, there's more good than bad, and not by a small amount. The world isn't fucked.
Burden of Proof
No specifications, default on Pro. Pro needs to prove that the world is less "fucked" than youtube comments make it out to be. At least comparisons from cases of Youtube comments against IRL examples should be made for the BoP to be made.
Lack of Affirmative Cases
Pro has brought zero examples from any Youtube comment of any Youtube video. Comparisons are null in this case. As a result, the BoP from Pro is not being met. I will wait an extra round to make arguments if necessary as I can only type on my phone as of this moment. However, this is literally at least the minimum that is required to stand up my position, which I clearly have.
