I said it in another post: if you see a bunch of influencers all suddenly peddling the same stuff, stay away. All of them can be bought.
Especially anything from Linus, theyβre a very scummy group.
Am I the only one who, upon seeing his videos for the first time, immediately thought he was an annoying little pinhead?
Like, I've watched his channel(s) surge in popularity over the years, and this entire time I've just been wondering why, and the issues that have come out about his little empire since have only confirmed my initial prejudice.
I got that creepy feeling from him the first time I saw a video of him. Every photo of him I saw set off alarms. I've also never understood why anyone even likes the guy.
This was years before all the issues came to light.
