I think the issue with Paul lately, for some, is he basically rejects anyone's claim that they're making money if they're not a tube.
When people take the time to explain how, he argues with them and rejects it. It seems Paul has a fundamental disrespect & disbelief for anyone still making content and making money without a tube.
I lobbied for Paul to be unbanned for over a year and I'm glad he's back. It is easy to see how, after a lot of effort some take to explain things to Paul, that they get fed up and write him off as irrelevant. You can only be called a liar so many times before writing someone off. Respect is a two way street.
I love it when Paul tells us stories of his life, current & past. Great stuff! But when he talks about the current state of things he always gets it wrong and refuses to absorb what's going on currently.
