memes

In the beginning it was very nice, but somehow the guy became repulsive somehow. I used to watch every video but lately I skip many. But since the older videos were interesting, I added it to the list. I also used to like Mark Rober but his videos I really dislike for a while now. It's so over the top "look at me, I'm an engineer, I'm going to do extreme shit and be super popular for kids" instead of "I'm going to teach you something super interesting".

they did some self-driving car propaganda a while ago iirc. their latest videos have been mostly pretty focused physics and math history though, so they've generally been pretty okay imo. but any time they mention anything that can be sold i become a lot more suspicious

I googled it and apparently there's been some commotion about him and his views. Especially about a video about why people are so easily offended, one I haven't seen myself. I'm only on YouTube and Lemmy, I completely missed everything else on other platforms.

The videos I've seen had no political content so I never noticed anything, but it's good to know as it might have influence on the information and nuance he provides. So thank you for pointing out his bias.
