I had such a blast watching this video the yesterday. The USA is so utterly fucked in manufacturing capabilities in comparison to China that I'd say it's not even funny if it weren't hilarious. I was wheezing laughing when at the 37 minute mark it's revealed that the patently sinophobic choice of buying the chainmail in India instead of China was just a scam that made him pay even more because it was made in China anyway.

The Chinese destruction of the american manufacturing economy demonstrated through burger tool by an unaware yank: literally my dream come true.

I mean he has a point in that the US not having like, any basic Tool/Die ability is pretty bad (for the US), and fostering local ability isn't a bad idea.

But he clearly impregnates the rest of the video with anti-Chinese bullshit. Like, he couldn't find any US supply for the chain-mail, so he compromises and imports it - but going to great lengths specifically to avoid China. Then when he does find a supplier (in India), turns out they're just drop-shipping Chinese parts lmao.

And at one point he specifically mentions the CCP as some evil force.

The whole video kinda made my skin crawl I dunno. Dude makes some interesting videos but this one is kinda gross. It reads less "pro-local" and more "anti-Chinese"

Ok so I just got up to the chainmail part.

This video isn't a "i want to make something in america" video, it's a "i don't want to make something from china" video. They're quite content in using India's manufactured chainmail.

Seems pretty sus tbh.

Can't believe the extremely Christian coded fella is also a racist???

It was funny watching him eat shit in the form of productive forces.

The video was interesting, clearly American manufacturing is fucked 😂 He had a couple of sinophobic moments for sure. I loved the part in which he got Chinese chainmail from "India". Not ordering it from China when he could not replace it was a revealing choice.

I get his mission, but it just so incredibly clearly shows how capitalism is a shitty system and that little "invest in local manufacturing even if less profits" speech seems more like a selling point than inspirational.

I read that this thing costs 75$, which is ridiculous. I would like to see the actual costs, can't imagine it being near that price. If it is, then what a shitty deal. He understands one thing though, his IP does not mean shit, if someone can produce something good enough or equally good for 1/3 the price.

China really is beating capitalists at their own game 😂

This guy weirds me out and I've never watched his videos. I just know him, Mark Rober, and Jerry Rig Everything seem close, and they all weird me the fuck out. Its not even something I can pinpoint exactly. Rober at least showed his ass when he did that Palmer Lucky colab for his automated killing systems.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HE WANTS $75 FOR THIS THING AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAA

deep breath

AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAHA

BUY A NEW GRILL EVERY YEAR FOR 8 YEARS OR BUY THIS?

Hey, this is that creep who makes his kids call him sir

The funniest part of this video is that his product ends up costing $75 and still sold out because americans are so stupid. He still manages to gaslight his viewers making them think his product is inherently or more quality and it's gonna last longer because its american made.

As if you needed a $75 grill brush when you can just use some aluminium foil 😭 influencers once again proving they're salesmen.

Afaik this guy used to work for a military contractor so do with that what you will

Oh and also ROFL at the little businesses in the US getting their IP stolen... THROUGH BLOODY AMAZON. Petit bourgeois in shambles when they discover that IP was only there for big corpos all this time.

Oh hey it's this stem hick

It's a shame this guy is such a tool.

Depends on what you are doing. But machine time is incredibly expensive in the US. But many of the repair parts for the machines will likely have to come from China so...
