I am sure you have it figured out already, but many others have not, so I'll have to explain myself to the rest of the gang (sigh).SJConspirator » 28 Dec 2022, 11:17 pm » wrote: ↑ I see it as no different than the reams of ridicule and hate directed at CNN on this board. He is just targeting media figures on YouTube. Even Trump called the media the enemy of the people. I harbor a good bit of contempt for American media in general.
YouTube is arguably the most popular platform nowadays, as people (even the dimmest of lightbulbs i.e. retards) have finally figured out paying $100+/month only to have their favorite shows littered with ads 40-50% of the running time is pretty bad...and a gigantic waste of time.
It might take these slow individuals several years before they also figure out something called "Adblock" exists, so I guess not all hope is lost for corporations and online businesses desperately trying to shove ads into their face while they transition to YouTube.
Anyway, I digress - many YouTube personalities garner millions of views per video, which is roughly comparable to the ratings enjoyed by popular TV political talking heads. So I believe it's fair for me to critique their style as well as substance since so many people rely on them as a source of information.
