Dailymotion is a french site, good to know!
Without sound the video wasn't very interesting (no subtitles) but the description mentions lemmy so that's fun. :)

IIRC, Dailymotion has ownership ties to Vincent Bollorรฉ, a French billionaire who supports the far-right. Perhaps the better option would be PeerTube, for video hosting, which is also French. We don't need our own Broligarchs to gain more traction.

Ah, good catch.

Let's be honest, are there any billionaires that aren't far-right (openly or otherwise)?

The amount of money they have is the problem.
