Imo none of this is even remotely news to me, one of LTTs most popular videos is that "I've never been this angry at someone and fired them before" where he had taken some new guy to go to his house and install a bunch of writing and stuff, totally outside any and all expectations of his job, and he'd done a not so stellar job, and it's like, what did you expect? He's not an electrician, he was like some sort of video editor or something? And you're the fucking CEO? How do you think the guy felt? Oh right, you don't give a single fuck. I don't know man, that's giving of some small business owner psychopath vibes.

Yeah, I saw this coming at least 5 years ago.

It’s the way Linus talks and acts, how their whole business revolves around a parasocial relationship with the viewers.

He actually became what he hated about NCIX so much.
