    It’s becoming more common now that news videos contain edited video. We shouldn’t have to worry about it but we do.

      Your so called “video” is clearly just a bunch of dots on a screen.

        Right, but sometimes the dots are recordings of real people and sometimes it’s a screen recording from Arma III

    My critical thinking professor told an anecdote:

    “This is a pen; how do we know? Because it does everything that a pen does. And that’s good enough for now, but when the pen gets up and starts talking, it’s time to reevaluate whether it’s still a pen.”

    I think that applies here too. We are the sum of our experiences and education is a part of that experience, eventually we have enough knowledge in a particular subject and a concept for gaining new knowledge. So, to a certain extent it never happens, we should always be asking questions.

    I would say when you are aware that what you see may be subject to illusion or deception.

      The test for that is generally “does what I see contradict what I know?”. In which case the argument is already over.
