Why hate the guy? He has a real repair shop afaik, and mostly talks sense.



If you know the vaguest thing about the topic he is talking about, you will know that he frequently omits critical context in order to get clicks. I am guessing that is what you mean by “mostly talks sense”


Unfortunately that's a disease that has infected nearly all Youtubers beyond a certain level of popularity.


There’s an effect (forgot the name) when you read an article about your area of expertise and think it’s awful. But then you read something you don’t know in the same journal and its okay. Are you sure that’s not the case here?

I mean, I don’t watch Louis and blocked him due to my non-interest and him being populist-ish with auditory, but talking this way about him is too much, imo.


This isn’t about the effect you are referring to. He has domain knowledge about what he is talking about. He isn’t Fox News 6 Cincinnati.


This reference doesn’t help me understand the issue. He disingenuous and omits critical context, isn’t fox news. Well, fine, I guess.
