    Obviously it would be better if he wasn’t making money off of it, but would it be better if he stopped?

    Yes it would be. The accumulation of so much money into so few hands is a net evil, and his videos glamorize and are used to justify that evil. Even if some (and it’s always a small portion) of that accumulation is used for good ends it’s worse than if it weren’t allowed to accumulate in the first place.

    Put more simply, if wealth inequality weren’t so out of control there would be much fewer people requiring the charity.
