So is the central thesis of the video that reviews are unreliable and easily manipulated?
Wrong again. The takeaway is that indie games have a huge dick-riding problem that is unique to them. With triple-A games it's the journalists who focus on meaningless things like dev team diversity and LGBetc characters when writing reviews...with indie games it's the players themselves.
I have no idea why you're getting bagged, you're completely right.
Steam aids and abets this too. They make it incredibly easy to be positive and nice (and globohomo) but if you're critical or normal or anti-degenerate, you're battling uphill.
Plenty of people dickride AAA as well. The Marathon situation is downright comical. There's just no money or clout in publicly shitting on bad indie games with no sales, so you won't find a hundred hot take youtube videos attacking indie failure number ten thousand and seven. You're mistaking apathy/invisibility for a free pass.
Edit: And if your look into it, indie games absolutely get promoted by certain communities based on LGBTQ bullshit. The video even acknowledged this. That's what furry devs are.
