What’s really wild is that people arguing for things like Right-to-Repair would be anywhere near right-wing to begin with.
Like, Louis, you don’t see how the entire conservative ideology undermines ideas like right-to-repair? How can you be like “Yeah, I trust these guys who all would shut down the things I’m arguing for,” and just be oblivious to it?

Louis’s videos are posted to multiple platforms out of principle, not politics… that means they also get posted on sites with creators that have been kicked out of YouTube, like the one linked here
My principle is I don’t hang out in fucking Nazi spaces.
Like, I wouldn’t go to a bar that advertised itself as a Nazi bar, and I wouldn’t upload my content to a site like this, that has enough Nazis on it that they’re in the recommended videos for a fucking Louis Rossman video.
If Louis is happy hanging out at Nazi bars, that’s on him and you can hardly hang that on “principles.”
Repairing things used to be normal. From that point of view, conservatism is perfectly right.
Conservatism has only ever existed to keep an aristocracy. Look at history, it’s literally why it developed as an ideology, because a lot of the aristocracy from Europe didn’t actually want the aristocracy to end, so they needed to make up political positions that supported the idea that there should be an untouchable elite to whom laws don’t apply.
It has literally never, ever existed to “conserve” anything like natural resources or the rights of individuals. At it’s core it was about retaining Kings, Queens, Dukes, and Lords without actually keeping those, but instead making it about wealth.
So yeah, gonna hard disagree on that. Conservatism is the source making laws that deny you the ability to repair, the conservatives aren’t the ones out here fighting for it.
People get old, they do not want this to change. That is where it comes from. Regardless of the persons status.
It is also irrelevant where it comes from.
I think I just realised that the term “conservative” is just a lie. Just like “pro-life” or whatever other BS they come up with, it’s just a smokescreen to cover their real agenda, which is to dominate others.
he has some very dubious takes - he’s very correct on how shitty it is to be a consumer but he’s completely blind to any systemic analysis of it, willfully I would imagine.
Here’s the conservative angle, at least in my view:
“We’ve always had the right to repair our possessions before, and we will conserve that right for future generations.”
Then again, what I consider conservative has never actually matched up with the political party, which is a big part of why I am no longer right wing.

A person of principle wouldn’t post there. Simple. It walks, quacks and shits like a duck.

And yet the top suggested videos were about how the Crusades were justified and how cop shootings are justified.
I would think if the largest community was programmers, those kind of videos would be suggested, not this shit.
Top suggested videos sadly speaks otherwise about the people on this site.
Because both videos have the word justified in them
Still a shit site that we’ll never hit main stream.

I doubt he is right wing, given what he says and does.

Dude sounds a lot like a libertarian business owner tbh. I wouldn’t be surprised if they align very well with the right otherwise.
