Nah, publicly advertised for and defended some right-wing Youtuber. [0]

Might as well cancel most programmers while we're at it. It's insane to lambast him for this when all he did was recommend some of Uncle Bob's videos on project management and programming.

Uncle Bob? Stating he is just "some right-wing youtuber" sounds mildly reductive, the guy co-authored the agile manifesto[0].

I won't go as far as defending his views, but recommending his talks and books seems pretty normal to me.

He doesn't even have a whole "getting cancelled" section on his Wikipedia page yet, can't be that bad.
