Why Did I Report this Advocata Plus’ YouTube Video as Misinformation?

I can't justify watching YouTube videos that are hours in length (like most mature adults), but I do use the indicative subject matter to gauge what people are interested in. I reported this YouTube video by Advocata Plus as misinformation because the title in its thumbnail uses allegory (or should I dare say allusion) to imply the current fuel related fear felt by many Sri Lankans should be blamed on the failure of a person or a group to woo a bride. Absurd!

Is it Awurudu or Avurudu?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I just realized the entire country has made a grammatical error this year when we wrote the phrase ‘Sinhala and Tamil New Year’. Because It should be Sinhalese and Tamils’ New Year. Are the grammer Nazi’s laughing at our paid television, newspaper and social media advertisements? Should our professional English writers be humiliated or penalized for shaming us at such a grand scale? As someone who favours descriptivism [1] over prescriptivism  [2] I believe we should all forgive each other for committing this unforgivable crime this festive season. Whether we write it as Awurudu, Avurudu, Avrudu, Awrudu, Sinhala New Year or Sinhalese New Year, we all know what the writer means.
