Static passive stretching is useless, most of the time. Passive flexibility does nothing to increase control, reduce injury risk, or improve overall health. That said, SOMETIMES, static passive stretching is good for you. Sometimes passive range of motion work is necessary, and sometimes passive flexibility is the only option available! This video comes to the defense of passive static stretching and teaches about several situations in which passive modalities are actually fantastic options! You don't ALWAYS have to be working on active range of motion, and active stretching such as found in PAILs (progressive angular isometric loading) and RAILs (regressive angular isometric loading). PNF stretching and dynamic stretching are other good forms of active mobility work, but they aren't the ONLY positive option. Sometimes a good old-fashioned passive stretch is GREAT. So, it's not always true that stretching is a waste of time.
