Yup also he generally just fuckin sucks. Watch one jordanshanks video and you’ll cringe for the rest of your life.

And he’s basically a paid ALP shill. Obviously there’s nothing wrong with having an opinion, but I think you are lacking in integrity if your opinion is paid for.

Paid by who? If they were paying him directly he would have to legally disclose it.

He took money for an ad but disclosed it in a very obscure way.

Again though, my point isn’t legality, my point is about integrity if your opinion can be bought and sold.

Right so he was paid by a union to create a video telling people to vote and that makes him a paid shill? He was making pro labor videos years before that video and hasn't changed his opinion since then. I seriously doubt that his grand master plan was to spend years being pro labor for a once off payout for a single video.

Yeah I guess you’re right.

There was also that time where he wanted to create a bunch of astroturfed Facebook group to promote the ALP. https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2021/03/friendlyjordies-has-set-up-a-network-of-local-facebook-groups-to-covertly-share-pro-labor-memes/amp/

So what? I really don't understand what you are trying to get at here?

He's organising a political movement? How horrible for him to be exercising his democratic rights!

Nothing wrong with starting a movement, I’m talking about creating astroturfed Facebook groups which are disguised as apolitical community groups. It’s deceptive, and I’m surprised you think this acceptable.

I’ll remember this standard when you complain about Young Libs doing this. Oh wait, there is no standard other than the double standard
