I like Critical Drinker, but I have noticed that he tends to have very low standards for something that is 'good'. House of the Dragon was 'excellent', and Dune 2 was very good, even though both were extremely cringely woke.
What is 'barely worth watching' for me is 'excellent' in his book.
I have seen the same pattern with Shadiversity.
But then again, it might just be impossible to run a Youtube account on shows and movies and then bash literally everything.
Shad is australian though, so he's extremely cucked anyway socially.
Well, as a European, I'm not one to judge. To me, he seems OK.
I find it interesting that viewers seem to run in the same channels. Offline I don't know a single person who watches Drinker or Shad or half of the weird shit i do. Then here on some random group that I don't even know how I found this place or wtf Kotaku even is, I find people who name-drop shit that I watch left and right. Whatever you are, you are my people.
And also, I think us Americans are less inclined to pull our punches when it comes to criticism about stuff. If something is just barely tolerable I've noticed that non American whites (Euros, Brits, Oceanians, Canadians) will be like "well this wasn't TERRIBLE" and Americans will just call a spade a spade "that shit was gay as fuck". I think the general pro censorship culture of other countries affects their banter even when private and online.
American (right wingers) wonder why our Canadian and NZ/Aussie compatriots are so inclined to go along with whatever the government says, for example.
Fun fact: The Brits' tendency for understatement got 600 men routed in 1951 during the Korean War.
