Coffin is literally a person who started with the desire to build an online brand and worked backward from there to find an ethic and perspective, as seen in how they started out doing dumb skits and self-ball-kicking for money.

Maybe I’ll give a minuscule amount of credit to Peter for not just being another internet reactionary, but that just means they’re either a little bit canny or draw the line at concentration camps, which isn’t really worth any credit.

I feel conflicted about Karl Jobst because I love his commentary and presentation but god drat does he go in hard with the "why do they get to say it but I can't???" rhetoric. At least JonTron had the decency to apologize and admit he had no idea what he was talking about.

To my understanding the only thing that really stops him from spewing junk is whoever advises him telling him to shut the gently caress up about politics and even then he still can't help but say that he just wants to grill

I guess I must have badly misremembered because it reads less like an apology and more of a "I just wanna have an honest conversation" weaseling.

Yeah I definitely caught that this time around as opposed to when the video first came out ~4 years ago.

What baffles my mind is how people like this don't realize that you NEED diverse gene pools to, you know, avoid birth defects.

Nazis like to keep nonwhite nazis around until they're not necessary any more, for cover and help with their stuff. From Jon's perspective, he's probably guessing that he's one of the good ones and will eventually be accepted or spared. (He won't)

i am curious how long it will be until folks like coffin and dore go full strasser because branding or some lovely other reason. Coffin has always been a weird scammer dipshit and them going full strasser/alt light seems like the most probable course to me. dore seems to just be pissed that FTV flopped and him getting mad AOC and the squad about it didnt take off either.

ehh. your giving them do much credit. they never had ethics and while i don't think coffin is some evil secret bigot, i think they would go strasser/alt light in a heart beat if they sensed they were too damaged in the left or if some strasserite said the right words to them.

Peter Coffin really gets on my nerves because they love to play leftier-than-thou games, but as far as I know they don't actually engage in any leftist/progressive activities outside of producing Content. I feel like if you call other people "breadlets" and don't at least work at a soup kitchen or something you're a massive hypocrite.

On the subject of the YT algo, I never suffered terrible recommendations for the longest time. Occasional spurts of dumb bullshit I had to meticulously prune out - oh you watched one funny Korone clip, that means you want literally every single piece of Vtuber content ever produced right? right?? - but for some reason this week the dam finally broke and I'm getting every last terrible channel recommended to me.

"wich the worst part was what troll face did to sonic's corpse after words wich was rape it. at that point i looked away"



Hey all. A few weeks ago I finished my video on the future of Qanon in which I interviewed a cult deprogrammer about the movement. I was very proud of the finished product and was happily surprised it didn't brigaded by believers.

That is, until today. Don't know who posted it where but I've had to delete a bunch of comments the last 24 hours. Stuff I expected - I don't know what I'm talking about, deprogramming someone is worse than letting them be in a cult, that I (or the deprogrammer) have been paid off, etc. I've been deleting comments like that, but is it the right way to go? What do you all recommend?

There's no value in keeping comments like those around. Personally I always think it's great when I see a creator who takes the time to keep a basic level of quality control over the comments.

you could make minimum wage six billion dollars and it wouldn't affect the economy because money is just an abstraction.







actually i take that back, it would affect the american economy because they would bankrupt themselves printing $1 bills.

thanks for reminding me about your video so I can save it

I don't think you have any obligations to try to argue or fight to deprogram people, because well gestures broadly. I see no reason to keep those kinds of comments around, but also don't think you need to worry about deleting them out.

i had a lot of problems with the accuracy in this and i bristled pretty overtly at the claim that a movie from 1972 was the first movie to depict concentration camps, let alone "one of the first holocaust movies". this could be easily fact-checked with a quick glance on wikipedia. orson welles' "the stranger" uses documentary footage.

the behind the scenes footage is very easy to find:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VFqHCAyv4o

the reason why the movie has bad sound and visuals (allegedly) is because lewis walked off with the rough cut to make sure the film wasn't lost. it's an unfinished print. it's not "shoddy quality", its...not done lol.

anyway. that's me nitpicking. please release the day the clown cried on a free streaming service immediately 2021
