i'm so edgy i killed toriel twice in the same playthrough
The video's alright, it's basically about how Undertale is a commentary on JRPG standards and that the things you do actually matter, so a Genocide route would actually be pretty violent but that's almost sidetracking now. And at least his clickbait titles are generally relevant to his premises, unlike this one obnoxious Undertale video this thread reminded me of, which was Toriel and Undertale Logic 101.
I expected as much. The guy's not a twit, he just enthusiastically embraces intellectual overreach.
Truthfully, I'd much rather that than the sort of videos I referenced. Rugnetta is enthusiastic without being annoying unlike others (although that is subjective), at least tries to give a variety of content, and doesn't feel like he wastes his words. I do also like his Reasonably Sound podcast, but I'm also not nearly as well-versed in those matters as I'd like to be, so there is that.
Saw this last night on Polygon. It ain't bad, though it does use a pretty esoteric definition of 'violence' to prove its point.
I've seen a few of the channel's videos (the guys on staff at my high school's satellite computer lab would watch it pretty frequently) and I don't particularly buy into everything on it but it's never been something I could find myself being actively annoyed by.

I remember the Game Theory video that insisted that Adventure Island was set in the Philippines. It was riddled with so many inaccuracies that after a point I stopped being offended and started laughing at it.
the first video of theirs I saw was that Chrono Trigger was a Jesus metaphor, which while dumb is hardly a unique reading (cough cough Chrono Compendium)
then I looked at more of their videos and the stupid was just so

Hold back the talons of your paws,
Let me gaze into your beautiful eyes
Of metal and agate.
When my fingers leisurely caress you,
Your head and your elastic back,
And when my hand tingles with the pleasure
Of feeling your electric body,
In spirit I see my woman. Her gaze
Like your own, amiable beast,
Profound and cold, cuts and cleaves like a dart,
And, from her head down to her feet,
A subtle air, a dangerous perfume
Floats about her dusky body.
