He doesn’t have sufficient substance to hate. Boredom is a more appropriate reaction.

What are you trying to say? That your attention span is limited to 4 Mins 33 seconds ?

Wonder how you’d cope with an entire weekend which is how long it takes to perform Wagner’s Ring Cycle ?

Cage a path forward? How does he provide that when his ‘music' goes nowhere ?
One the other hand he could be comforting for those with the short term focus of a gnat.
