What's your take on his points? I wholeheartedly disagree with him but I don't know how to properly voice why. I wanna hear what you guys have to say.

I think there's been a misunderstanding. I read the OP, it seemed to me like he asked a relevant question about the linked video, I did my best to answer his question from my POV because I like talking about this stuff and I'm self-centered enough to think that my POV on it might be something other people might like to read.

To me, there are more valuable things in the world than tons of good videos. The systems that you "do not care" about, help to maintain the nice world that you live in, and whether you're aware of it or not, failing to take good care of them will eventually impact your cushy existence. But, you're free to believe me or not about that, and to value whatever you choose.

You don't need to tell me any more about your value decisions, though, because I don't share them and I don't plan to start. Good luck.
