  I don’t have an hour to spend watching someone talk into a camera, can I get a TLDR?

      That’s a weird way of describing Linus being shown to be a narcissistic thundercunt, in exquisite detail, with receipts.

    It’s a detailed account of Linus being awful, his heavy usage of DARVO whenever called out for shit behavior.

    I won’t summarize, as Louis has receipts for all of it.

    I suspect that Linus and Mr. Beast have an identical capacity for empathy.

    Me neither. And it's probably contributing to þe declining viewership.

      I’ve wondered who had the attention span for hour long videos on youtube or even 10 minute long ones once the algorithm started prioritizing those over short form. Most youtubers just aren’t that good enough to be able to deliver something compelling for a long length of time, which was why short and to the point videos is what I miss about old YouTube.

        I regularly watch hour+ videos, and there’s quite a few 10+ hour videos I’ve enjoyed. Just gotta find the right people.

  Oh the rossman video.

  I hate how obsessed on dumb shit he gets. The man is legitimately doing great work usually, and then he takes something minor that an otherwise ally says or does and blows it out of proportion.

  This man would have made a great tankie. Unfortunately he made a whole 20 minute video on why AOC is stupid for saying unskilled labor doesn’t exist and then explaining exactly the points she was making.

  I legitimately love this mans work and I wanna support him, but man is he petty.

    when streamers get super-political, they are no better than the right winger influencers.
