Wow. Almost every single thing he listed at the beginning (before I turned this off because I was getting the urge to punch his face so strongly my work computer’s screen was at actual risk) has taken enormous amounts of “big government” subsidy. And well over half of them (possibly much higher!) are actively damaging society.
Advances were made and sustained principally through labor organization, not government regulations.
Much of the manipulation in the presentation from PU is based on constructing a false dichotomy between organization through either private business versus central government.
A common tactic is to bait an antagonist into attacking private business, but then shifting from a defense of business to a criticism of government. It is employed by proponents of marketism, and commonly involves insertion into the discussion, often as a straw man, the Democratic Party or the Soviet Union.
Such proponents often respond poorly to suggestions about cooperative organization, or to reminders over the natural tendency of business to seek increasing protection from the state.
There’s something disconcerting about the structure of that person’s face and the ways it does and does not move how it should when the person it belongs to speaks.
PU has already compiled the best ones.
The one mentioning the iPhone will long be a favorite.

Not many would do well reading that script.
Argh, I watched two seconds of it. Now YouTube will recommend that stuff to me forever.
Holy shit those comments are as cringey as the video somehow.
It’s a wonder the commenters don’t drown staring up at the rain with their mouths agape.
I watched about 7 seconds and turned it off. What a punchable video
Most content from PU is rough to watch, but the one I gave can be used for comic relief.
You can see the Wilks’s oily paw prints all over.
