I've only watched LMG content for a few months, but this out-of-context snippet sums up my feelings on the company.
Sebastian says that it's a consumer-first, employee-second, profit-third company. But his actions don't always support that.
Sebastian says that he doesn't believe anyone should ever be a "fan" of anything because it's irrational. But then he turns around and dismisses anyone who doesn't show his brand absolute loyalty.
Sebastian says a lot of shit which sounds absolutely amazing if you can assume it's true. And the problem is that you can't assume that the company line is true coming from any company. You can just watch their business practices and make the best judgment on if the company seems honest. And Linus Sebastian, who effectively is the company as the owner and face of it, has increasingly come off as dishonest. It makes it damn near impossible to trust any of the good things he says that he does.
