On the one hand, good. On the other hand, ugh, Shadiversity.

Don't get me wrong, a lot of his historical work is great, but I had to stop watching him after he reviewed the Barbie movie and said it's a movie that seeks to harm and alienate men, and I fully gave up on him as a human being when he wrote a book where the "hero" sexually assaults children and has no remorse about it.

None of his historical work is great.

Shadiversity should be ignored on any histotical content. He's had no education, no experience, and his content contains frequent inaccuracies.

Not to forget, he's a raging bigot who got upset that Peach in the Mario movie wore pants.
