Corridor Digital’s hyper-realistic AI renders of gaming icons like Metal Gear Solid’s Big Boss are hard to look at

Not surprising since corridor digital is owned by money grubbing techbros.

MAGA money grabbing tech bros

I hadn't heard, that's too bad. Any sources?

Well, I had seen them partner with Black Rifle Coffee at some point, which is a pretty pro-MAGA branded company. Their content doesn't seem to lean that way though.

I don't really see the "sucking trump's dick" aspect there. Most of the video is spent going over the legal framework that was being used by the administration with little to no editorializing. And the end of the video directly calls the politicization of the emergency powers a threat. If anything, I'd say the video was critical of trump, not supportive of him.

Not sure I want to watch that video

It's not that bad. Kinda pointless, tbh, particularly for a channel that's focused on vfx, but it's not biased like they're claiming.

You clearly missed much if this was your takeaway. Did you even watch the video, yourself? Because it isn't what you say it is.
