i cannot stand this greasy bastard. i followed his company and all of its various YouTube channels for years, but i eventually got so fed up with the constant shenanigans and ridiculous individualist ego-laced stances.

no, you don't need a union, i'm a good boss :)

oh, sorry! didn't mean to accidentally ruin an entire company (multiple times) because we did a bad review in bad faith because we didn't properly use the devices and left plastic/shipping protections on the devices! whoopsie! time to auction the device off now!

sexual harassment and coverups at my company?! absolutely not! the investigators i paid said there was no evidence! but i'm a nice guy, i won't pursue anything!

well, yes, we do work an absurd amount of hours past the point of productivity and yes we sacrifice the quality of our content to do so, but we acknowledged it and worked to improve it (we did not).

here, have this video of me in my boxers because we get hacked like 4 times a year!

seriously, fuck this little bastard, i hate this fuck with a passion

    shout-out to Emily though, and honestly, all the wonderful folks I've left behind because I can't stand Linus Sebastian. Riley is an angel

      I always wished Emily would spin off a Linux channel. I think she wanted to do it, but it was never allowed because everything Linus does has to maximize returns and it'd have fewer views than their usual content. Not because they have shareholders, but because he is the shareholder, and he needs more gizmos in his house.

    I just find the thumbnails and titles so gross. Every other day it's "we levelled half the Amazon rainforest and turned the area into an LCD screen" with Linus or one of his minions soy facing. How many times can you rinse and repeat this formula?

    It's all slop, and surprise surprise, the captain of the slop factory is a greedy criminal bastard.

    I could write a thesis on why i hate this guy. My favourite part is his performative poverty where he says he isn't that rich while being absurdly rich. He's a control freak and a massively egotistical manchild

      Please write thesis, I don't follow enough and just know him as the guy who used to do NCIX reviews and is now the Mr. Beast of computers

      yea so basically when they got hacked and someone got into their YouTube account, they insisted on displaying how dire it was by showing Linus' home security cam footage of him walking around his house and getting on his PC in his underwear while talking on the phone
