Says the obvious controlled opposition who have never been censored or banned from anywhere and who still haven't had the government come after them the way that they are currently starting to attack gaming sites and alt media

controlled opposition

I wish more people understood this.

If a publication is neither censored nor being consistently attacked by the law and/or politics, they are in on the grift. No real "thorn in their side" would be allowed to make millions and freely travel the world.

Ben Shapiro specifically gets boosted by Facebook, or at least he used to.

And the Crowder drama showed that they are beholden to the Karens that censor YouTube and whatnot. You say something that gets you flagged on YouTube, dailywire penalizes you.

You mean the organization founded by Ben Shapiro isn't genuine in what they say and do?

Heh, I've had better shocks at work last week.

Tradcucks are faggots who spread their ass cheeks for the danger hairs' strap on while telling everyone how conservative they are. They give the game away with their war on gaming and the Manosphere.

Jeremy never covers any of the Kiwifarms censorship drama or the lengths that the alphabet mafia go to deny them access to the Internet and their constant DDoS attacks.

I've seen Null mention in discussions about crowdfunding that Hambly is a lot wealthier than he pretends to be on screen and values protecting his revenue streams over getting down in the mud to help out the fights that need fighting.

Patriot Front,

Why do you support the feds?

Careful now, with that kind of talk someone is going to call you a glowie.

I'm not big on Patriot Front (lukewarm on Vox Day) cause, well... But you are not wrong. No one ever does anything

For me, at this point, anything happening outside of a 20 mile radius of my home, or outside of what I can pick up on my antennas, is not my problem. I keep an eye on and engage in state politics but I understand that even at a state level things may go south.

When it comes to well-to-do conservatives like Limbaugh, I can't say much. I remember listening to him when I was young and I remember when he passed. I don't know where his money went.

Tucker, though, seems to be using his money. I doubt it was easy to get flights to Russia from the US. I don't know how you think Tucker would use his money to fund para -anythings at any level, though.

Sailor, I know you've been around but certainly you can see why you get some pushback.

I see what you're saying, but I think you'll find that people have their own ideas of what success is, let alone the direction to take to succeed.
Rush and Tucker may have felt content to spread their own influence, to spread their message or morals as much as possible. Alternatively, they might not have trusted something that isn't directly in their control to prevent compromise or contradiction.
As a thought experiment, consider how you or others may feel about Gab, Rumble, Odysee, Brave browser, Truth Social, communities.win, Prager U, Turning Point USA, O'Keefe Media Group, or whatever else you know about. They are things being built, but which takes priority, or even granted support in the first place? Why?

It’s exactly what the left does except conservatives don’t have the added benefit of having the media in their pocket to brainwash an audience of idiots. Trump was trying to drain the swamp and I think he did a lot to fix the party but there are a ton of grifters who bend the knee to special interest groups and bitch that nothing can be done.

I don't know why people ever rallied behind TheQuartering. He's a giant douchecanoe. He's not the kind of person we need trying to represent us in the anti-SJW movement

douchecanoe, fucknugget, twatwaffle, shitweasel, et cetera.

They're called 'shitgibbons' and there's few styles of writing as grating as those, it's as though I was reading a tumblr/huffpost/gawker/reddit-mod/breadtuber style opinion piece.

People who use 'douchecanoe' are also not the kind of people we need trying to represent us.

His videos start off OK. Sometimes a clever meme clip to kick it off. He usually introduces the video with a good summary of what's going on. But after that he spends like half the video reading Twitter comments .

I tried watching him at 1.5 times speed-- it's still not fast enough.

Quarterpounder lacks concision and gets lost on tangents. So I invariably feel like I'm wasting my time watching him, so wind up I stopping after the meme/intro 9 times out of 10.

We learned from the first time.

One of the things that fractured us back then was we didn't have a clear definition of our enemy, it's why we did the 'ethics in gaming journalism' angle. When the older guard conservatives came, we thought it would to define and target the enemy but it was just them trying to make us THEIR boyscouts.

A decade later, we KNOW who the enemy is, we KNOW how to define ourselves so when the old guard try the same grift, we can say to fuck off and either fight in your own area or shove it as we'll do it ourselves. They still haven't adapted to the times and are largely still controlled opposition.

They look more like controlled opposition to me. Ego is one thing but they're just doing the left's dirty work at this point. Feminists and tradcucks are two sides of the same coin.

Jewish

I'd use "Zionist", because it's a bunch of (mostly) Christians under a Jew (and another Christian). But if the heretic is analogizing to their beliefs, he's correct. DW is the "Christian" or (as it was typically phrased) "Religious Right" of the 90's and 00's.

Feels like people get egos the size of their audience when they've been in the spotlight for awhile.

Which also makes them walk on egg shells given to them by others so they don't walk too far away from the ideas the egg shell givers want them to cover.

Never trust a talking head.

They're telling you what you want to hear. And when they get something obvious wrong, or won't cover what you'd like them to, you begin to understand that they're in it for themselves when it counts, and for you when they can profit off it.

And when the tide shifts and they can't possibly not cover it, because it's supposedly in their wheelhouse, they'll cover it with about a third of their ass and gloss over a lot of it, while taking at least the bare minimum amount of youtube minutes to get that sweet sweet revenue.

I've gotten many downvotes by saying that every right wing personality is basically a grifter.

I'd rather listen to 100 anons like you guys, than to listen to Matt Walsh, The Quartering or any of these assholes.

You guys give your honest opinions, and don't view this as a business. You are free to give your honest and sincere opinion.

Internet celebrities aren't free. If they make their living by being a right wing personality, then everything they say has one single goal: keep the money coming in.

If they pay their bills by voicing their opinions, then their opinions can't be trusted.

While I agree that Daily Wire is more interested in grift and allows themselves to be controlled opposition at times, I think there's a bit of overreaction to the highlighted sentence, because there's actually a lot of truth to it, a lot of gamers are losers, or incels. A lot aren't, and the issue of DEI destroying gaming because it's white male dominated is very real and something that all on the Right should be fighting against.

Ben Shapiro on DW specifically said he doesn't care about the browning of America it's about ideology not race. They aren't fighting to defend white males or their spaces.
