Look, I get it, no one wants to see their favourite youtubers or political commentators get outed for doing something potentially shady or stupid. I'd feel the same way if it happened to Count Dankula or the Lotus Eaters crowd who I think are quite chill. Do I know who they are really? No, I don't so I'm not going to get that attached about it despite having seen both of them live and spoken to Sargon and Dankula RL even though they probably wouldn't remember me.
It's entirely possible they could have just been idiots like with Jack Murphy and did zero background checks on the people they were taking money from but that's all the more reason they should be maybe a teensy little bit paranoid about who they receive money from or who they let on their shows.
This isn't about fanboyism. The government is the enemy, and this attack is coming from them. Fuck the DOJ, and fuck Mayorkas, that slimy rat.
Do I know who they are really? No, I don't so I'm not going to get that attached about it...
Well, you should get attached. This matters. This is about free speech, not any individuals. Of the batch, I mainly like Matt. I'd have more negative things to say than positive about many of the others. (Benny Johnson is boring and adds nothing to his content. Lauren Southern has flipflopped way too much. Dave Rubin is a washed up shill. Lauren Chen goes way back and is kind of cool [and hot], but can also be a bit flipfloppy and milquetoast. Tim Pool is obnoxious, but I think useful. Taylor Hansen seems cool, from the little I've seen. As mentioned, I like Matt Christiansen.) Doesn't mean I'm going to toss them out as Russian agents, because that's complete and utter bullshit, and I'm not retarded enough to believe the DOJ.
None of these people are Russian assets. I could give you an "at worst" scenario, and it wouldn't even be that bad...but I don't even want to give the fed fuckers even that much credibility. This is too convenient; until proven otherwise, I just assume this was the US DOJ pulling their standard bullshit.
I didn't claim they were Russian agents, just involved with glowies generally, you can be a glowie asset without being directly involved, if this turns into a thing it's easy to see they got duped at best which doesn't make them look good in this situation even if they weren't malicious. Fyi, to be clear, I think this is an issue because it shouldn't be 'illegal' to simply take money for certain videos. However from a personal perspective I really dislike it when there's a lack of transparency from these people about who they take money from and for what reason because they're attempting to deceive me.
This is why I largely stopped watching most political commentators, especially given that they're not really saying anything that revolutionary either. They either turn out to be some form of glowie shill or they're open shills where their sponsor reads take up half their video before they get to the point and you realise any random internet commenter could have made the exact same point for free anyway.
Edit: Honestly surprised with the usual paranoia on this site about glowies that you guys are going out of your way to stick up for them, they are not looking good if they got greedy and took money under the table for videos, this does reek of fanboism and I'll call it out regardless.
...it's easy to see they got duped at best which doesn't make them look good...
If nothing else, I can respect you sticking by your absolutely retarded take, and doubling down.
'If the massive globalist government claims to get someone near someone you might know, you totally deserve getting your shit destroyed by the powers that be.'
Shit, dude. You're smarter than this. You live in the UK, and area always going on about the nefarious and dystopian shit they get up to. But now if you can get six degrees of separation from a fedboi you're complicit? Again, just absolutely braindead take.

The glowies are the ones doing this. What is your hangup on this? You're the one "sticking up for the glowies," if anything.
...they are not looking good if they got greedy and took money under the table for videos, this does reek of fanboism and I'll call it out regardless.
What are you even talking about at this point? That's not even close to anything anyone but retarded leftists are saying...
Wow didn't know Calvin was doing that, yeah I'm not surprised, it's something I have planned myself, not necessarily the US because I'm waiting to see the results of the election first. I've mentioned it before but weighing up the options.
I happened to catch his farewell episode on the LE this week. He also had an interview with Dan Wootton discussing it in more detail.
Apparently it's been in the works since he was fired from GB News. An American church contacted him shortly thereafter asking if he would lead them.
He gave reasoning that there are not enough "'soldiers" currently in Britain to fight the evil. He also claimed several times that he fears for his personal safety as the UK media has essentially declared a fatwa against him.
He did allude that he was thinking of returning in 5 years to run for public office. But five years is a long time from now.
You're an idiot. I'll let other people tell you why since you clearly can't figure it out for yourself.
I didn't want it to be me, but he's being so thick I had to step up.
So no different than usual?

Thank you for your service. I know tard wrangling is a difficult endeavor.

Again, quit being retarded.
This is the best tl;dr of all those talking heads.
And this is what the DOJ is punching at. Milquetoast flip-floppers against Kammunism.

Shit.
Off topic, but how do you feel about Calvin Robinson leaving the LE to flee to a parish in the US?
I suppose that indicates he's jabbed as well.
