(Honest) Videotube Reviews

[Skeptic1]

Why do most all videotube reviews, even those in which the host claims it is an honest review, seem to be bullshit.
Almost feels like I'm watching infomercials on sunday morning.
Especially optic reviews.........

Kinda like how people call the Ultimate Reloader the Ultimate Advertiser.

Most of what you will see here are some random (and not so random) thoughts on sporting optics of all sorts. I will also intersperse these with other gun rel...

They're shills who create video product ads in exchange for free products and sometimes cash. They pretend to be "average folks, objective hobbyists- randomly choosing products to review" instead of the compensated advertisers they are.

I could be confusing YT channels, but wasn't he the channel that had no problems at all with a 365, but bashed it anyway for what his crony YTubers alleged happened to them with the 365?
