    Why do you feel the need to make it so black and white? Clearly, helping people is a good thing, even if done with another motive in mind. To ignore this and say it’s all bad is simply dishonest.

      When the “other motives” are literal propaganda that helps maintain inequality at the expense of the people it exploits under the pretence of “help”, it is black and white to anyone who isn’t too busy licking boot.

        First, fuck off with the name calling. Lame and uncalled for, and not indicative of good faith in discussion.

        Second: How do his videos constitute propaganda that maintains inequality? Is he not literally preventing inequality by giving away money or assistance? He also serves as a role model to encourage his viewers to do the same.
