I wasn't aware that the validity of arguments made by someone hinges on how popular they are. I guess I'll have to wait until this gets a million views before I'll consider the arguments made in the video.

Thanks for reminding me that we live in a society where striving for popularity still pays off. Please help me out by upvoting this comment.

It's how we know Mr Beast is the wisest man in history, a modern day Plato or Aristotle, because his youtube channels gets the most views.

I remember despising PewDiePie when he was the most viewed content content creator and was throwing slurs all over the place like an episode of Oprah giving away free cars to the audience. Now I realize his popularity made him a genius doing a gaming inspired interpretation of Mein Kampf for the modern age.
