Thank you for sharing the video. I ended up watching the whole thing and found myself of a similar mind as the presenters: he makes a lot of points that sound downright reasonable. I expected some vapid jock-type like you typically see on reality TV, but he’s able to articulate a lot of problems about our current society in ways that I can’t really refute. It’s just his solutions to those issues that are wrong.

And I think that’s what makes his position as an influencer so dangerous. He’s speaking to the genuine lack of class mobility that Millennials through Gen Alpha have had to accept as reality, and “proving” his point through his own life. Sure he might die by the age of 40 with how unhealthy his lifestyle is. But I think a lot of people in the younger generations would likewise rather party it up to unhealthy degrees while young than work a menial dead-end job for 50 years, hoping you get a couple years of retirement in your old age before you die.
