A video about disposable vapes, and how addiction became the goal of every single company on the planet.
Guy is completely tone-deaf when he pushes some fitness as a service crap for his sponsor, immediately after complaining about how monthly services are replacing one-time purchases.
Well you can watch it ad free on Nebula, as linked in the video description.
I honestly can’t hate on him for that decision, he needs to eat as much as the rest of us, and unless we’re paying for a Nebula subscription, video sponsors are the only way to do that.
Because YouTube and Twitch are notorious for reducing ad payments or demontising creators. Have you forgotten about the adpocalypse already? Patreon also increased their fees with very little notice in 2019.
It’d honestly be an idiotic move to not take a video sponsor if they’re offered, because that is guaranteed and likely upfront, supplemental income to support the creation of videos.
Nebula is collectively creator owned, so it’s the only one of those that won’t fuck over creators for more money, but as I said, not a lot of people are paying for subscriptions. It’s small, the per-creator payouts are probably even less than Youtube.
And finally, the real answer: Man’s gotta eat. Simple.
All of that considered, I didn’t even see the sponsor ads you’re complaining about because I have Sponsorblock skip them automatically.

He criticizes capitalism and yet he participates in it! How hypocritical
I’m more surprised the sponsors allowed it to go through.

Considering he takes money from YouTube, Nebula, Patreon, and Twitch, I don’t know why he feels the need to take sponsorships, too.

Yeah quite a few of his videos feel like that.
The content is good but then comes the ad read being read with the same enthusiasm as the video which just makes the video feel insincere.
It seems like he removed the ad read from the video. So I’m guessing he was taking the criticism to heart.
