      Have you seen Linus’s response? He played victim, ignored parts of the criticism and apparently straight up lied about the proceedings with that cooler startup.

      Also this video was the result of many incidents and it seems like they never even got over the “trust me bro” thing. I honestly don’t understand why, because that was a way less spicy video on GNs side.

      It’s our job to ignore relationships

      They handled LTT the same way they would, and did in the past, any other company. If you think it’s bad that they don’t do favouritism, then there’s something seriously messed up about your moral compass.

      Man, scrapyard wars is not a set of words I’ve heard mentioned in a while. I have such fondness for old LTT stuff but stopped watching years ago as they started growing and pushing out more and more videos. I guess that’s why scrapyard wars also got rushed / dropped by the end. Doing it right just takes more time so it isn’t profitable in their business model. What a useless channel this has become.
