It begins with uninformed and/or ignorant people with low-IQ who think they know all there is to know about how something is supposed to happen or work. And when something doesn't happen or work like these people expect, they immediately assume fraud. What is worse is that these people are crippled by their low-IQ such that a person of even just average IQ has learned enough to know that he knows next to nothing about the world and instinctively does independent research and gathers factual information to develop an informed opinion. The low-IQ people neither know that they should do independent investigating nor how to do that, nor do they have the focus, discipline, and determination to conduct such extensive research. Most critically, they lack the humility to conduct their research with the goal of proving themselves wrong and accept whatever truths they encounter regardless of how opposed it is to their initial assumptions.
It's called confirmation bias. Everyone knows the sky is blue. If you believe the sky is green, and you conduct your research in a way that you are looking for proof that the sky is green, you will find proof that the sky is green. Valid research for someone who believes the sky is green begins by looking for undeniable proof that the sky is blue and then looking for science that proves every one of those discoveries invalid.
That's a lot of words to say this - That webm is extremely low-res. First, find the original videos (yes, there is more than one) of the various LM lift-offs. You can clearly see a plume reacting with the platform of the descent stage in the first second or two of the lift-off of the ascent stage. Also, at around 10 to 11 seconds after lift-off, you can see the area of the engine growing bright yellow.
