People really need to stop putting condescending misogynistic white cis hetero dudes who talk confidently on the internet on a pedestal. This shit happens like, every other week.
The whole knitting saga showed that Hank Green knows nothing about the world but he's ready to confidently spew his very wrong personal notions as facts.
Because in the end, that's the biggest problem. He always talks with over confident authority. Sure, he puts the whole, this is just my opinion as it exist in my brain, spiel. But hidden as a footnote to the end notes. He acts the part of the know it all dunce. His content is so off putting when you even tangentially know a bit about the topic he is talking about. It highlights all his biases and misinformed opinions and how he enjoys showcasing them as scientific facts.
Then there was that time he made a video with harmful information about trans people and completely wrong facts about HRT. Seriously, about AI is not the first time he's been a menace.
EDIT: If you disagree with me but want to know more, here's a video from someone from the knitting community that articulates my gripes with the Green's brand of slop better than I can in the limited space of a Lemmy comment.
Here there's a commentary about the whole HRT misinformation problem.
BTW: If you read white cis hetero dude and think that's an insult, that's on you. That's not the part I disagree with and is not even the most important part of the comment.
