I have watched pretty much all his videos. I don't think he is racist since he does acknowledge the racist nature of suburbanization and has even talked about the racism in the car friendly infrastructure in Bahamas. He is also one of the few YouTubers to point out the success of that "abandoned" metro station in Chongqing.
But you are correct about the rest.
yeah idk where I got that idea tbh. honestly I think it was just seeing his face in this video combined with his very... gentrified perspective. He slobbers all over amsterdam but amsterdam is incredibly unaffordable and the cheaper areas in the country aren't necessarily so good from an urbanist perspective depending on who you ask.
Its not fair to call him racist just based on him looking like a an albino white devil but idk I just can't shake the feeling
