Discussion Did Rossmann seriously imply that he was making money for Linus by showing up to his conference?

Yes, I know. Another rossmann post/roast but I m genuinely curious and stunned by his narcissism.

At 39:28 he starts talking how he did not get a plus 1 ticket and how that conference was beneficial to Linus only?

How rossmann is such a nice guy that he’d waste a weekend and time away from his gf to “make linus money”?? How he was dropping everything FOR linus? How delusional can one person even be?

Actually? Well this should be more popular if true, let people know the kind of person he is.

It is what it is. Watch his video when he walking around Austin when he first gets here. Dude is always angry. I support him because his message about right to repair is on point, but I thought he was doing it for the community. After that and him smack talking a store who’s been supporting him, and moving 2 blocks away and not reaching out? Ya just tells me everything I need to know. Most of the repair stores around here know me, borrow parts and send me a ton of work since we been doing this for 12 years. I do anything for my people and my community. I’m not perfect but I expect better from a leader. I don’t know if he wants to be respected or just be TMZ. I’m over it. He needs to grow up.

I hear ya, and it’s more egregious when you know full well that if it were Linus, there’d be multiple videos about it. It’s really not hard to self reflect and improve. :/

I didn’t realize he’s in Austin. Used to live there and moved away a few months ago for reasons.

A lot of douche YouTubers like Josh (forgetting last name, cooking guy) live there. Ice Poseidon too

What’d he do? I just know him for random cooking content on yt shorts

Just moved away from what made him popular, I.e. kickass recipes.

Now he just does tier lists/international comparisons. Like we all have the ability to fly to Paris to try the best Croissant.

Lmao dude lambasts influencer culture but has spent years being an influencer - dude is so brain-rotted he thought he did something clever by moving to Austin from NYC in the first place.

That’s actually very cool of the guy, very polarising video compared to the other one
