His fans believe any video by him is the god given be all and and all statement on any topic.
He employs a large number dishonest lines of arguments. Drawing large conclusions for limited unrepresentative data. Not actually fairly representing the things he is arguing about. What he does is build narratives to lead viewers to the conclusion he want them to reach.
> Can you point me one of those egregious errors he made? Because I looked at this whole thread out of curiosity, and every single commentator criticizing him, did not provide a single concrete example.
I have not one of his videos in a long time. I remember watching his videos on Falcon 0 and struck by him clearly have no understanding of the issues with his driving goal seeming to be to gather all possible evidence and building a 'Busted' narrative while ignoring any evidence that points into another direction.
In general, looking at his videos he seems to have made a career out of calling Musk an idiot. To be fair their are a lot of low equally low quality channels that made a career out of calling Musk a genius but those are equally stupid.
He even attacks some of those channels in his own videos, but its very telling that those are the kinds of channels he interacts with. Because that the level he is playing at.
> It's a new genre...Scientific Entertainment ( bit still scientific) Not sure everything in this short life of ours, needs to be taken so seriously:-)
You don't have to be serious but I very much get the vibe that he thinks he is very serious and his fans think he is very serious as well. A also think he is deeply unfunny and his videos are pure cringe to watch. Somehow he is a genius who knows everything about everything and yet his videos production quality is worse then a 8 year old on Instagram.
His channel is the kind of channel that is designed around making online interactions worse for any topic, not better.
This is the kind of video that I find actually helpful:
