In theory you are not wrong but you ignore that language evolves, in modern times it means someone agrees or at least sympathizes with NSDAP ideology/ideas and no "they don't hate Jews so they are different" is not an excuse Nazis back in the days only chose Jews because they were a minority and could be blamed for everything.

I don't know what exactly you're referring to but I assume you mean the bill of material cost that sometimes goes around in headlines like "new phone only costs $150 to produce and is sold for $500" or something like that.

That's a flawed way of looking at it because it ignores things like:

  • Shipping cost (both the final product and individual components)
  • Development cost
  • The % the retail store takes
  • ...

And of course profit which ideally is used to finance the development of the next device and ofc the greedy execs at the end who put the rest in their pockets (that's the only part which you can actually cut)

Overall what he promotes/fights for are good things. But in short what I don't like about him is:

  • he believes to be the morals authority
  • the standards he is advocating for don't apply to him (for example fighting for open source just to release an app which isn't open source)
