The guy appears to be an idiot with a bee in his bonnet. I suppose Eliezer or Luke might want to watch the video just to get your $50, but what do you expect to be interesting about their response?
(I dare say he isn’t an idiot “globally”; he may for all I know be very smart most of the time; but in this context he’s being an idiot. There’s nothing there but mockery for mockery’s sake.)
I don’t know how I would react to such videos being done about me, so I wonder how they would react.

It’s that many people find them to be very interesting and intelligent on area X of their endeavors while at the same time the same people find them to go utterly off the deep end in area Y. I don’t know about anyone else, but when I see a contradiction like that I find myself compelled to find more about that person or group and to try to figure them out. edit: often with a good deal of laughing or frustration which is ultimately unresolved as anything more than ‘well, they just dont get it’ or ‘humans are nuts’
