Ah, he’s emotional. People shouldn’t be outwardly emotional, especially men. Otherwise I can’t absorb the content of their message. /s
Joke aside, did you have a point? One could alternatively say that he’s passionate about the fights he chooses. Should we not all aspire to be passionate about the fights we choose?
I’m not familiar with his videos, and I haven’t watched this one, but I can say for sure that people who over-act for YouTube videos are a turn-off. Yes, I know it gets people to engage more, but it’s almost always at the cost of being informative.
He’s not emotional in that he cries, screams, rages about things in a “reality TV” kinda way. He sits down and discusses things, and sometimes he veers into “this makes me feel XYZ” or “I got letters from XYZ’s legal dept last week, and they spoke to me in a way that made me feel XYZ”.
Honestly I don’t think he acts over the top at all, he’s just comfortable talking about his feelings, and some people don’t like that, particularly in men.
My (minor) problem with him is one completely different - his videos are so long, and he rambles. The guy could really benefit from writing a script lol. It could cut the runtime of his videos in half.
Granted I have only watched maybe 20 videos of his, but he’s covered topics that frustrate and anger him, and on the contrary he’s always been very calm and collected for someone speaking off the cuff about things that makes them upset.
From my perspective, it’s toxic to always get your audience worked up over minute things. That kind of content is what I tried to avoid hence my move to Lemmy
Did he makes the youtube thing a men’s rights issue? I don’t understand, I only had time to watch the first half of the video so far. I’ll check out the rest later.

He doesn’t overact it. He’s genuinely and rightfully salty when it comes to companies and governments screwing us and him over.

💀 at making it a men’s rights issue.

No, he didn’t.
I mostly got tired of the constant repetion. Felt like most of his rant videos could have been half the length and had the same content.
Fair critique, he is known for being verbose, I suppose his audience likes that though? Shows us the value of editors :)
