Is there merit to the arguments made in this video? Or where are they wrong? They seem like good arguments to me, but I am interested in other perspectives.

I listened to about half, the perspectives in this seem fairly normal and mostly reasonable. Listening to this kind of thing always gives me a shiver up my spine because everyone's being very sane and normal about a world that has totally gone mad. It's creepy.

And if you talk bad about it, even on Lemmy, you will probably be banned.

I guess. I didn't leave corporate social media to get away from difficult people with big opinions, I just don't want my troubles to be making anyone rich.

Trouble is the money maker.

Exactly, it's a conflict of interest. Hell is other people, I don't need some dude in a polo shirt monetizing that.

I've watched some documentary where it was commented that actually we are living in an insane situation and vein/being ok with it is crazy and not the other way around. I think it might've been the movie the corporation 1 or 2.
