I see this kind of post a lot and just want to toss my rebuttals out there:
>Feng does some scandalous shit
I have only ever heard "the victim's" side of the story, never Feng's own account of things. In fact the only time I have heard Feng weigh in on some controversy thrown at him was recently when he was accused of appropriating another artist's "format" for teaching design to more advanced students. Since you're the kind of seething faggot who obsesses over this stuff I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

Feng was accused of something like stalling the original creator and stealing a trade secret to get a jump on the market. I think those are very minor crimes that were blown out of proportion. Feng's argument is that there's enough room for both of them, they both have pedigrees that will attract students, and the maximum number of students they can both attract is limited both by the niche and the teaching method. I think that's all rather reasonable, but what is not is straight libel against Feng because apparently he sleeps with clients and whatnot to get jobs.

And I'm not trying to accuse people of lying either, though I've yet to read someone go after Feng with straight facts. Everyone tries to demonize him in rehtoric. But my issue is that when you start with the "Ben Muaro said this, Eduardo said that" it becomes a game of "he said she said" and there's no neutral party that can break the tie.

How is your own judge of character? If Feng is putting up a front, it's got to be the most insidious thing ever to be making hours long videos where he's drawing and making goofy noises but is really some Captain Planet tier capitalist villain.

1/3

He has no "end game". He's your typical Chinese businessman, exploiting naive artists and beginners to get as much money and power as possible without any sense of moral, ethics, or decency.

His free youtube videos are basically advertisements to beginners for his overpriced courses that he barely puts effort in. Although to his credit, most of those videos are useful and informative.

I think people mostly hate on Feng because he's an asshole. But also because his work is incredibly bland. Never understood why people hate on Algen, though.
