MODERATORS
His video with one of those "genetic research" companies was very bad anti-privacy propaganda, where they used the excuse of catching the Golden State Killer as justification for storing and using the related genetic information of masses of unconsenting individuals.
He's also dipped several times into making state department propaganda like Smarter Every Day consistently does. Not nearly quite as bad as him yet though.
And he's made several videos about failures of capitalism, wherein he very obviously refuses to identify it as the problem. Like the one about planned obsolescence or leaded gasoline and another I'm forgetting.
He also has a habit of making videos that are just long ads, like that self-driving car, or that shampoo
I've watched his leaded gasoline video, capitalism doesn't seem like something he would need to bring up? Unless I'm not remembering the video correctly, the cause of the problems aren't something he goes into
