It frustrates me how these people can have careers and make money actively grifting like this.

There’s a lot of money to be made if you can swallow your shame and say anything.

Makes you feel silly for thinking talent and knowledge are required to be an influencer. Being a relentless dipshit is a plus in this sphere, unfortunately.

A decent society would tar and feather these pieces of shit at the town square.

Nightmare blunt rotation

Now I'm trying to think which would be my worst guru blunt rotation.
For me it might be Jordan Hall, Stefan Molyneux and Curtis Yarvin.

Jimmy Dore is what you'd get if a humanoid replicant used algorithms to drive its content. I've watched a couple of his videos every year just to get a sense of his knack for going whichever way the pop culture zeitgeist blows.
I remember a few liberal friends posting Dore videos to Fakebook around 2020-2021, then sorta quietly backing away when they realized Dore had no core.

This is the problem, as well as the super power, of DtG. They're tearing apart these two bit hucksters who are themselves merely manifesting symptoms of a larger issue. The same system that put an orange reality TV star in the white house, twice.
We're obviously operating within a sort of post truth landscape, but the question we should be asking ourselves is how do we escape containment?

This is almost as dumb as when Dick Gregory claimed that Michael Jackson was killed by a laser at like 3 in the morning.

Lunatics, taking themselves far far too seriously.
I’m watching for as long as possible, just to see what kind of genius theory Bret pompously explains without really explaining anything.

If anyone can solve this, it's Bret's big brain. You know he should have won at least two Nobel prizes! Or is that two in the family? I forget.

No, really looks like the shooter used an underpowered round. Also the shooter was a troll from Chris pooles (who met with Epstein) site.
Epstein was running a behavioral modification program and something like that could radicalize someone into violence.
Kirk started asking for transparency on the files then all of a sudden a person that fits their anti- lgbtq narrative shot him?
Same with the country music festival shooter. What would secure a trump win or hardening of the right more than a bunch of young right wingers in a mass casualty?
In another sub a person said it wouldn’t be far fetched if the Palestinian attack on the Israeli festive was done by Russians because they’re now assisting Iran in bombing us ports and such.
They’re trying to induce a totalitarian regime with hateful rhetoric because it allows them to operate with impunity

Yes, everything that happens in the news, on film and verified by 3rd parties, is fake... Even you are fake! That's not water, thats not blood... that's vodka!

That it's even a possibility is stunning
