      To quote a couple of 20th century philosophers: Mick and Keith.

      You can’t always get what you want

      But if you try sometimes well you might find

      You get what you need

        Yeah. I don’t know if this will produce change, but saying what they’re saying is the best first step. I’m sure we’ll all be watching for follow through.

        Incidently, it’s a good thing that Linus Sebastian recently handed over the role of chief executive to an experienced manager. I think it would have been very bad for Linus and the company for someone who has acknowledged being ill suited to running a company to try to handle this.

          Going from personal experience working in companies with techbros in charge you cannot fix the culture without removing all management and starting again from scratch.

          The fact this happened for so long with LTT I doubt it can be turned around.

          It doesn’t matter if LS is no longer CEO. The culture he allowed to develop and did nothing to change lands the blame squarely at his feet. As long as he remains there it does not matter what his title is. The company will stay the same.

            It doesn’t matter. Ownership hasn’t changed… CEOs are still beholden with the board and he has a controlling share. Nobody is dumb enough to pay actual money for a debt laden company that trades on the old owners name.

      Needs more click bait.

      Title: I did a bad

      Description: just plugs for all his channels and sponsor and merch store. Fuck describing the video

      Thumbnail: Linus soy face wide open with red arrow pointing to a 💩 emoji. There is a red circle around it.

      Dude probably didn’t want a Forbes headline at all. I don’t think his personality holds up well to basic scrutiny for the public at large. If my dad for instance asks me about him he’s already lost.
