    Is that because of a technical definition? I thought he does do a load of good for people. Regardless of whether he also profits from it. Isn’t that sort of a win-win? More reason to give back for him as well. But I don’t watch his videos and don’t know the fine details.

          Of course – Pretend to be generous and giving on the front-end, while raking in the cash on the back-end.

            Ok, but how is the person they are being generous to not benefiting from this arrangement as well?

              … Because they’re the mark. He’s making his money off of their responses and reactions through his content.

                Yes, and they’ve accepted this arrangement in exchange for some benefit. Why is this bad?

                I don’t understand your annoyance. I would 100% be ok with my reaction being on the internet if my living situation gets a 1000 times better lol, and I’m pretty sure all the people in the videos feel the same way. You seem to have some Vendetta against this guy.
