YouTube Salesman

We all know him, the guy who insists everyone else watch random (usually only semi-funny) YouTube videos one after another in a charade of courteous laughter. When encountering one, a true test of one's patience and tolerance lies ahead. Grab a Snickers.
"Dude, you gotta see this!"
--"Fucking YouTube Salesman"
"Just one more!" (several times over)
--"That's enough Randy, quit being a YouTube Salesman."
"Ohh shit, have you guys seen ________?!?!"
--"Is YouTube paying you for this??"

YouTube Smart

Folks on the internet who think they've become expert on something by watching a few YouTube videos, but have no actual knowledge, experience, or critical thinking skills of their own, ESPECIALLY when they reject "traditional" bodies of knowledge or schooling in favor of the long, rambling videos to which they've become addicted.

You can't - and I cannot stress this enough, CANNOT - win an argument with someone that is "YouTube smart".

Example exclamations from this crowd include:

Flat Earther: "At least she is smart enough to know that 5 gallons of water can't spin on a basketball at 1000 mph" and "It's called atmospheric refraction. Research Flat Earth"

Delusional Tightwad: "I'm a sovereign citizen, you have no right to impound my car or arrest me - hey, hey, ow! Let me GO, ow OW!"

And any of: "Alex Jones said fill in ridiculous claims here shouted in an angry, gravelly voice before trying to sell you vitamins!"
Dude, seriously, give up ... Dale is YouTube smart, his kids will have polio and HPV before he'll let that doctor give them autism-by-vaccination!

Anti Youtuber

Youtuber whose content predominantly consists of satirizing and commenting other Youtuber's output of videos. The main characteristic of an anti-youtuber is how they subvert Youtuber customs, in a cynical and ironic manner. (i.e. the average Youtuber will tell viewers to "like and subscribe" ; an anti-Youtuber will do it while adding an ironic spin).

A Youtuber that does this while also creating content that isn't focused on another Youtuber can be considered an anti Youtuber. (i.e. iDubbbz and his Content Cop series).
A clear example of an Anti Youtuber would be MrRepzion.
