    Dude is giving iffy vibes for a while now. Watch a few videos of his and a clear pattern emerges:

    1. Every negative aspect of the modern world is reframed as an intentional conspiracy of capitalism.
    2. A fantastical version is sold for the socialism of Nordic countries, and all ground realities and challenges are conveniently ignored.
    3. Uncomfortable leeway is given to past communism crimes, because the evil capitalist sabotaged them.
    4. A vision of the world is sold where away from capitalism, somehow all inherent human evils will vanish, and we all will act like Captain Picard for some reason.

    It’s a perfectly fine channel to counter PragerU garbage, but don’t take anything he says without a sack full of salt.
