Anyone else afraid of Dave Ramsey?

I was new to his talk show a few years ago because I was looking for advice on how to make/save money as someone who is below minimum wage. Holy cow, the more I watched him, the more abused I felt. At one point , I felt so shamed and uncomfortable, I just stopped watching his videos. I didn't find a single bit of his advice to be helpful and I was shocked to see so many people actually applauding him and taking his advice seriously. Does anyone else get 'toxic-self-help guru' vibes from him? I noticed a lot of finance talk shows are becoming more like his. It's tough to find any realistic money advice out there without felling like I'm getting scammed by by sociopaths.
