About all it’s doing is getting publicity, which is nice I guess, but I do respect him a little less despite still liking him the most out of all these people.
YouTube ad revenue wouldn’t even apply to Crowder because he’s been demonetized on YouTube.
Crowder’s correct that the social media channel rules are all BS but incorrect in thinking DW can really do anything about that. YouTube is their primary viewership platform which funnels people into DW memberships. It also helps with their live ad reads because it’s a larger audience.
It isn’t a bad deal for talent so much as there’s not as much reason for someone like Crowder to be part of a network like DW. There really wouldn’t be a point in DW to sign Crowder if they didn’t profit enough on it. It also puts the rest of their network at risk.
Crowder’s not Alex Jones but in terms of strikes and bans and what not and flak, he’s a lot closer to that than Shapiro. He’s a risky guy, and that comes with a price. I think him and Jeremy knew they couldn’t strike a deal that’d work so they’re mutually working to drum up a news cycle to talk about all this that will benefit both of them. The rapid rate it’s happening and all that all speak to that.
Not take other business precautions?
Them being friends doesn’t mean he just hands Crowder a 50 million dollar budget for 4 years. I really like Crowder. More than DW. Crowder’s great, but he’s overtly handling this to stir up drama, which I can do without.
They definitely did him dirty, like banning him for citing the CDC, but the whole point of his show is pushing that envelope in general.
It was a starting point for negotiation, and honestly isn’t really that out of the ordinary. It’s very clear Crowder’s trying to drum up trouble to promote his launch of his own service. He even recorded the call with DW and registered the domain name for ConPro already. DW may very well be in on it.
Whether or not you like the offer, Crowder’s knowing trying to stir up attention for his own launch of his own service.
That’s not how those work. You don’t add them up, they’re different things. The ad drop is the live read ads. Content strikes and bans are also different.
Seems like Crowder’s doing all this to get more interest in starting his own thing. DW’s offer is pretty standard. The entire brand was built by playing within the YouTube rules, much like Tim Pool did, and Crowder’s been banned multiple times for openly skirting them.
DW wouldn’t make any money if they gave him another offer so they gave him that one. The main issue is that Crowder’s better off going it alone, which he has to know. DW and Tim Pool and everyone would immediately give him shout outs for support. This all has to be planned. I refuse to believe this is a real ‘stand’ he’s taking, which I say as someone that’s on Mug Club and will follow Crowder wherever. I’d rather see an uncensored Crowder, which DW can’t provide. Go full Alex Jones on it.
That’s what I thought. Would even people in wheelchairs want to ‘role play’ as people that also can’t walk? The point is everyone’s going around as a warrior of some kind fighting or supporting them. Being in a wheelchair wouldn’t even permit people to move around in most of those fantasy type worlds.
Are they going to climb a mountain in the chair? Or venture into a dungeon…in the chair? Are they going to run away from a dragon…in the chair? Better hope the Nightmare Castle™ has wheelchair ramps. Maybe it’s the Nightmare Castle™ because it has no ramps?
Pretty much. I’ve even heard professors teaching classes where they told people only to use good sources, which they defined as ones that were not right wing. The argument itself was a left-wing argument. They literally told the students to only trust the sources that agreed with them.
Had a conversation with one lefty guy one time, and any time I brought up something he said that was factually just wrong, he always asked where I got that information. If the source of the information wasn’t something like CNN, he didn’t believe it. It’s kind of sad really. A lot of this stuff you can factually still look up if you know how to not just read a headline from CNN.
A lot of media outlets are also gaslighting people openly now, like the NY Times. Jan 6 came up with one guy and I said the only person that died there that day was one of the protestors it would seem, who the cops/security shot. He disagreed and said hundreds of people died. I said they weren’t even armed. He said they all had guns. I asked him for the names of the people that died. If you looked on the NY Times, by then they’d rolled things back and had info on around 6 guys that had strokes or killed themselves the following die, but the protestors didn’t kill anybody, which they didn’t directly state. That’s not what they were telling people before.
Same with the Rittenhouse thing. I made a joke about it to one guy and he said ‘fuck that guy’. I asked why, and he said for shooting all those black people. The people he shot in self-defense weren’t even black. It’s all on camera. It’s super creepy to see what people are willing to believe.
Another guy was going to break up with his GF for not wanting the vax because his mom was sick and he didn’t want her to get Covid. I said if it makes him feel better, her getting the vax wouldn’t stop her transmitting Covid, so it wouldn’t really affect that part of it. People are willing to believe anything when they’re scared and busy. We wouldn’t even be able to know how well the shots did for like 20 years after the fact anyway since it takes that long to test and do all this stuff legitimately.
Some gay people have to have been nurtured into it at this point with the astronomical rise of people claiming to be gay.
All this crap mostly made me want to be a conqueror because people are going to be pissed off at us anyway.
A lot of tribes also wanted to mingle and mate with the whites because they had cool shit and were better at stuff.
Being a Native American now is amazing. Everything’s free and you can start your own casino with black jack and hookers.
Knowing many Asian girls, might be both.
It gets pretty creepy when there’s a tendency to kill off and vilify white people in heroic roles and replace them with alphabet folks. The trans kid thing’s also not particularly realistic during a zombie apocalypse because nobody’d have time for that shit given the circumstances.
I saw the opening and some change for the second game and had no desire to play it. It’s basically strong independent woman beating a man to death and then there’s trans people. The entire point of the game was the narrative, and I saw that they ruined it within the first hour just with the beating to death thing.
I’d pay to see them do this. I doubt it’s real, but it’d likely just tank the whole super hero film industry. It’d be the stupidest and most political casting decision in all of history that’d mostly piss off the entire world.
People apparently paid to see Jack Murphy fucking bitches, so it’s not outside the realm of possibility.
The whole thing with Tate does sound a little too on the nose though. He was already rich and famous and it would not appear to have been from human trafficking. Why human traffick now?
I always thought he was grifting but it is pretty alpha to literally buy and sell women in a certain warped sense I suppose.
That’s just a conspiracy theory.
The real issue is that most of the internet is censored fake crap now, and that’s what AI’s scrape and learn from. Even if you let AI do plenty of things, the information base has still been tainted. The only way around that would be inserting counter opinions.
Pretty much. I’m fine with people being guy, but I’m not fine with being gay being an issue we should at all care about at this point. People are free to be gay. That’s about where it ends. There really isn’t anything else. Although I’m fine with gay marriage, it’s very clearly a subversion of what marriage was supposed to be, much like many marriages now that are basically advanced dating with how easily and quickly people can get out of them. The point of marriage was a man and woman being in it together to make kids and raise them. Not being happy all the time isn’t supposed to be grounds for divorce. Being stabbed and beaten up or not having access to sex is.
The establishment left is generally a caricature of crazy women, and the establishment right is generally a caricature of crazy men. Girls go crazy bitch making endless incoherent demands as a shit test and guys jump over themselves trying to sleep with them while making fools of themselves and not actually getting laid.
A lot wrong with Trump and I’d rather someone else run this time, but he at least had the right idea of responding to most issues on the left with a big ‘fuck you, fuck you, and fuck you too.’
I haven’t looked into it much, but haven’t seen any AI art that wasn’t crap. Most is only interesting in how bad it can be, like Trump going Super Saiyan and such.
Wouldn’t work for him since he’s a guy. Fat acceptance only works for women. Men are inherently bad so they only get shame, unless a bunch of women really like him, then he’s the GOAT.
Oh come off it. It’s standard to make someone an offer that’d take into account the risks involved that’d make it work for you. Then they counter and you go from there. Crowder did make a counter offer, so he wasn’t completely against the terms.
Why would Jeremy jump in to suck Crowder’s dick? DW made Tim Pool a similar offer and it wouldn’t work for him so he turned them down and they just did work together periodically. I’m sure Jeremy’s in on this at this point too and they’re just getting themselves into the news cycle and both of their subscribers will go up.
