PJW was running these and several others I can't remember right now. I thought it was a fun idea and considered buying one. Good thing I'm a habitual procrastinator.

Or they just need the money since YouTube keeps demonetising their content.

Its that. Pre them demonotising everything right of Mao a lot of them would be doing very well just off the YouTube ad revenue with their channel sizes

Or they just don't know you retard. Who the hell would care enough to find out that they're fake. This such a weird take. I cannot understand your logic

Sponsors reach out and offer you money to read their ad.
Same as basically all advertising ever.
Are you also mad at TV channels because a late night informercial convinced you to buy piece of junk?

He qualified it as a reforestation project with the bonus of getting the title.

The Quartering as well.

He made a rambling video about dropping ET as a sponsor without actually addressing at all what the actual controversy involved.

Sponsorblock or using something like freetube which has it build in. It'll skip sponsored stuff and others people have reported. I've had it with sponsored content, I just skip all that shit nowadays.

Matt and Blonde are the only ones whose ads I trust. The only things that get advertised on their show are businesses run by people who watch the show and are part of that community. Only buy from fellow shitposters.
