Don’t know that much about him but sounds like he’s part of the “public intellectual” crowd, which is pretty much a liberal fifth column supported by the west. One of the hopes from the democrats in Washington (this was around the Obama and pre-Obama era) was that these elements within the education/media/online sectors would poison the minds of the younger generation, making a full colour revolution and “peaceful” overthrow possible.

Hell, some of these grifters on YT for example are former teachers or CCTV anchors from the mainland. The best part is they all fight for the attention/funding of western groups, so often there will be a dog-eat-dog situation when some of them get too popular and the others start attacking them lol.

Recently some of the ones that now live in the US held some “important meetings/conferences” where they started assigning each other roles within a fictional government called the “New Federal State of China” lmao.
