I think the anti-woke content creator bubble is going to burst at some point. Not because people disagree with anti-wokeness, but because people are getting tired of hearing the same shit over and over again with no results to show for it.

None of these creators are offering solutions. Most of us are well aware of both the problems and the perpetrators. We don't need to listen to yet another "based" rant from an army of enlightened centrists who are still so brainwashed by leftist idiocy that they refuse to even name the devil, let alone fight him.

How is engaging with these creators improving my life? They're certainly benefitting from my views. What are they giving back to the cause other than lethal complacency?

Solutions to American problems will adversely affect Jews disproportionate to other groups. Disparate impact.

The House Un-American Activities Committee was also anti-semitic.

There's a difference between blaming jews for all problems, and for pointing out based on socjus rhretoric, Jews are super-whites in terms of sitting at the top of every "oppression" hierarchy that exists today.

Richest, Most billionaires, least represented in prison sentences and arrests, highest college admittance, vast overrepresentation in government offices, etc.

I'm not saying Jews are the problem, but the fact they're omitted from socjus's "oppressor / oppressed" model is highly suspicious.

None of these creators are offering solutions.

Discussing the solutions openly is a good way to get yourself on some lists with the FBI and ATF.

For sure. Creators who pivot to offering solutions would be more likely to end up in prison than riding a renewed wave of ad revenue. But that doesn't mean they won't fade away as their current shtick becomes less relevant and useful by the day.

Solutions would solve the problem which would put them out of work and they don't want that, they want you mad at someone so you watch their stuff and they get paid.

To me they are no better than the big news networks they so often bitch & moan about and neither of them are honest about it so fuck em.

I think timeframe and mindshare play a part in this determination. Five years ago, daily videos sounding the alarm on woke idiocy were valuable, useful, meaningful. Five years on? When everyone knows the score? Such videos are almost pointless. They're like pulling the fire alarm for the hundredth time after the building burnt down. Yeah, fire is bad, we know. What the fuck are we going to do about it?

Everyone knows the score, but not everyone knows everyone knows the score.

Over half the population says it's likely or very likely the election outcome was due to cheating, but democrats believe it's only a few extremists who question the election. About half the population is anti-abortion, but the far left believes 80% of the population is pro-choice. Every issue there's a huge disconnect between what people believe other people's opinions are and actual reality.

This is why 4chan is so great because it shows you what people are actually thinking, but it doesn't show you how many people.

What's needed is an "is this retarded" poll app. It needs to be real people with real demographics info, but anonymous. I don't know how to accomplish this, maybe with crypto or something, but if somebody could figure out how it would solve a lot of this woke bandwagon insanity.

Depends on what the solution is. I follow a number of nonpolitical homesteading channels that go into a fair amount of detail about off-grid power generation/storage, water catchment, permaculture and irrigation-free gardening/farming, and so on.

For those of us who think "going Galt" is the only solution we have for the forseable future, that sort of information is invaluable; and those channels are never in trouble with the censors.

HighTechLab has a rather elaborate solar setup for his off-grid ranch. Also does a few videos on his water and septic system

Better Together Life has some good starter videos for homesteading. I think they live in a pre-fab wooden shed they insulated and finished

Townsends is more of a re-enactment channel of Colonial American techniques but could be interesting if your goal is to go full-on Uncle Ted.

A lot of channels are kinda hit or miss. They'll have a few good videos and a lot of filler. I suspect they're more dependent on youtube ad revenue and sponsorships money than they want to let on. Might be better off just searching for videos on the specific topic you're interested in.

There's also the CYA angle to consider.

For example: If I were a popular influencer and I had definitive proof that BLM was going to crash an upcoming based rally in a certain way, I may tell my many listeners to converge on that rally with personal defense implements. And the small minority of committed listeners would dutifully comply.

Then when the rally happens, a big fight breaks out. Shots are fired. Some people are wounded, maybe even killed. Next thing I know, I'm under arrest for inciting violence. And that's just the beginning of my life and the lives of my friends and families getting ruined.

They don't have serious convictions, which is why they're centrists, they're mostly just in it for the money because going full right wing is career suicide at this point.

I stopped listening to the Quartering for the same reason, the constant complaining without getting to the root of the problem was just boring.

Tim Pool is a man that preaches standing up yourself and your community, then whines that it causes bad optic for your side when you march and get mad. He is a man who says 'shame on you, Portland men, for making it so that some random old woman has to stand up to a violent mob by herself,' and when the Proud Boys arrive and cause a ruckus, suddenly that's nonconstructive and a waste of time. He demands that the citizens of America's cities stand and fight against the woke mobs rioting in the streets, infiltrating school systems and plundering small businesses and multinational corporations from the inside out, but takes all his youtube money and F's off to the mountains somewhere, fleeing his own city in the process. It only took one year for him to go from 'no guns in my house ever' to 'Shall Not Be Infringed.' Life comes at ya fast, eh?

His fence-sitting has gone from something I shook my head at, to something for which I damn him great suffering and miserable life. Tim strikes me as a conniving snake, eager to take the path of least resistance, uninterested in having his viewpoints truly challenged, whose head grows fatter and fatter with each passing month as Enlightened Centrists continue to throw him $20 and $50 for whatever Based Guest is on his talkshow today, who he interrupts constantly to reassert his worldview.

All the while he shies away from broaching anything truly controversial because he knows the moment youtube decides that he's crossed a line too far, his business will collapse. He takes a 10 minute video, and pumps it up to 20-30 minutes by adding in unnecessary anecdotes about his life and career, and repeats himself at least 3-4 times by the end of it. I really liked Tim a year or two ago, but at this point I just find him grating. I just don't know what he offers me now that I need to watch him to learn or understand.

Seconded. I was already starting to sour on him for his chronic blackpill doomering (more on that in a minute), but I think the moment that really hit me was when we finally saw the much fabled Beanie Compound.

For a guy who talks about how money is meaningless and he would be fine living in a van down by the river, homeboy seems to be living EXTREMELY high on the hog. We are talking, an actual, honest to god mansion. And when I saw where it was located because of the info on the forum for Small Bird Ranchers, I realized that for all of his talk about being "out in the mountains", he is still within spitting distance of DC, which is FAR from isolated. "Leave your homes because they are on fire, and run to the mountains!" he says, from a million dollar mansion.

And of course, there is the blackpilled doomering he engages in, where he just seems bound and determined to be a miserable bastard at any cost. It hit me when he had Michael Malice on last time. Michael was doing his usual Malice-ism about how "if they were winning, the propaganda would not be necessary", how he is extremely whitepilled about the future, that this pain we are in is temporary and people will absolutely revolt against it, that with each passing day more people decide they dont want it, all of that stuff. And yet, the whole time Tim could do nothing but say "your wrong." Never said how, never said how to fix it, never even entertained Malice's point. Just "Your wrong. We're doomed." And then I thought to when Tim was always talking about how Journos want you depressed, angry, scared, or some combination of the three. And I looked at his desperate attempt to remain the Eeyore in the face of positive news, and all I can think is "How are you any different Tim?"

This is why I have started moving toward his old cohost Adam Crigler. At least he is upbeat, offers up positive news in addition to the usual stuff, and seems to truly believe that America (and humanities) best days are ahead of us.

I dumped Tim years ago, he hasn't done anything worthwhile since he made his boots-on-the-ground videos in Europe. He's become just anther money begging tuber like most of the rest of them.

Get a job Tim.

My favorite thing from him recently was when he said the new Ron Desantis big tech bill will protect journalists "like him". No, you're not a journalist Tim. You sit on your ass in the safety of your home and read articles. You're a youtuber.

He says he's outfitted a van for mobile on the ground reporting, but all he's used it for is driving cross country to be on Joe Rogan.

I also love how he constantly says he's self-employed. No Tim, you're not. You work for youtube. If you were self-employed you wouldn't need to censor yourself, and be in constant fear of youtube deleting your channels.

If Tim actually got off his ass, held a real opinion, stopped calling situations "weird" when he knows exactly what's going on, and stopped trying desperately to be the next Joe Rogan (which will never happen) people might take him more seriously.

Like I said, he just stays safe in his home with his roommates. Remember a while back when that guy came over to his house in the middle of the night and started beating on his windows? I think that lowered his testosterone levels quite a bit.

All these Antifa and BLM fags know who he is so he won't risk being on the ground. He's content sitting safe at home reading articles by Andy Ngo who's actually doing the job Tim claims he's doing.

In his defense, he’s doing more good getting the word out and funneling people into non Big Tech channels than he is giving YouTube the bird and accomplishing nothing.

I found myself fast forwarding through his videos so I could read the text of the article he was blathering about. So I asked myself why am I not just reading the articles? Unsubscribed and it’s so fucking nice not to have his bullshit littering my feed.

Tim is a coward that likes to virtue signal as a courageous man with principles. His constant waffling shows the lie of his principles,however.

He likes to constantly call people weak for not standing up... until they actually do. Then he’s all, “No no, not like that!” Yes, exactly like that.

I do still watch his content though, since I find he often highlights issues worth looking into. I just don’t imbibe his perspective as particularly authoritative on anything anymore.

He seemingly lives by all of his principles. Not all of them are conservative, however, which might be the disconnect.

I quit his BS long ago. He seems to play both sides, and has no principles whatsoever. He's in it for the money, the viewership and that's it. If he could double his viewers by spouting SJW crap, he'd do it in a heartbeat.

It also doesn't help that it takes him 20 minutes to say something that would normally take 5. Or the fake acting of him getting "angry", or his repetitive rants.

Do yourself a favor and quit watching him if you're still watching. You can spend the 30 minutes to 1 hour a day doing something more productive, like cleaning your house, learning a new skill, etc.

Don the Pleb at Plebian Media is what you're looking for. Ex Marine artillerymen, has a series on the Fabian socialists/Frankfurt school, actually was on the frontlines when shit broke out like in DC and kept people from getting jumped, holds meetups with people in his private server, calls the left faggot commie scum hourly, goes over military doctrine and COIN manuals for "educational" purposes so the right can fight the left effectively in kinetic warfare.....Funny as fuck drunk (gun asmr) streams with SSGT Sniper/Snipers nest.
