I checked the posts, and although I don't agree with Meriting them, I don't expect him to be removed as a source over this.
I just check his merit sending history too and the posts he merited for Bitcoin SV (shitcoin). It's clear that Vlad2Vlad is one of the honest user defined by Bitcoin SV.
Bitcointalk is forum of scammers. Only me and several users here are honest
Good thing.
But after going through the other merited posts I would say it's okay. I will also not want him to be removed. It's just some emotion he responded other than that he is doing fairly good.
