Yes. Because while he makes persuasive arguments himself, I can't stand how frequently butchers the very psychological theory he's using to support his arguments.



You're smart enough to realize that the credibility of Adam's arguments is independent of his credibility in trying to course correct our political destruction.

If he can affect outcomes positively under the guise of persuasion expert, the critique you're, quite possibly accurately, making becomes entirely misplaced in regards to Scott Adam's goal

Maybe fighting fire with fire will work, but I think it just makes a bigger fire.

But his influence seem largely limited to Trump supporters and just confirms whatever bias they already have. Maybe I'm wrong, but at least for me, he would be more effective he was a little more critical, since everybody deserves some, and less hyperbolic.

Maybe his goals are well-intended; I just don't think they are effective at fulfilling those intentions.
