Agreed. Quite a bit of casual racism, among other things.

If you're just going by that video, I can see why you might think so.
But he has a lot of respect for Japanese products in general, because they are well engineered and manufactured. And a lot of the stuff for sale these days in Norte America is very cheaply made, and he really doesn't like that.

That video isn't unique in that way. I do enjoy his channel, but he's not afraid to let his racist/sexist flag fly.

Now you're making me question how much I should tolerate that sort of thing. Where is the line between "he's just joking around, he's not really serious" vs. "deep down he really believes this". Am I just too complacent? I'll have to think about that.
