Just look at the hate filled messages in this thread. He shares his opinion on video games but people act like he spreads bigotry and prejudice. He doesn't want to sign a petition to regulate video games. He's allowed to have an opinion.
It's not some fucking witch hunt. He's a pretentious asshole, who thinks he is better than everyone else.
And yes people can have their own opinions, but he misrepresented the goals of the petition on purpose. Then he refused to debate it with someone (who knows what the petition was actually about) on live when called out.
On top of that he deleted ross's comment, rebuking his shit opinions. How much more of dickhead can you get?

He is just a nepo libertarian shill who has no real balls or mana.
Right, but there are people who are openly Nazis. I get that he's got an ego but he doesn't seem to have hateful views. I just find the amount of hate he attracts just for being a know it all seems way out of proportion.
He is also a grifter. Why would you be surprised that content from a fraudster (irrespective of whether a "know it all persona" is used in marketing or not) gets downvoted?
And generally, there is reason to be skeptical of content from gaming content creators that does not directly concern games (pricing and inflation is a much broader topic). There are much better sources for such discussions.
