More of an O for offer. If you are willing to watch this video on Tim Pool, I will watch any video you want of a similar length. Unless it’s about demonic possessions cause that shit freaks me out.

Country music has it's Kenny Chesneys and Toby Keiths.
MSM News has it's CNNs and Tim Pools.
It's called a marketplace, crybabies.
If there’s ever something you want me to watch, just ask.
My biggest issue with Tim is the hyperbole in his headlines, as he rakes in clicks from Trump supporters like me.
But as he gives his sometimes spastic commentaries, I believe he is 100% sincere in what he is saying, and that he is dedicated to trying to find the truth without an outside agenda. In this day and age that is increasingly rare, which is why I value Tim's videos.
For this guy to do a 45:00 video on Tim Pool seems a little Obsession by Calvin Klein, if you know what I mean.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Tim is mostly guilty of hyperbole in his headlines, and then talking so fast at times that he spazzes out. His hyperbolic headlines are sometimes so cheesy that they're almost begging Trump supporters to click them. But in his videos I find that he's sincere and works hard to present the truth as best he can see it.
You can go ahead and watch 20:00 of that video posted by Bob_C. It's an oldie but a goodie, and quite sobering and prescient.

Basically this. I more-or-less jackbrownsocksquitwatchinghisstuff.gif because I knew it was @dnc classic confirmation bias. Frankly it's boring.
My contribution to the 'watch this' is Eric Weinstein telling Glen he doesn't actually believe in free markets, and being mildly contemptuous TO HIS FACE throughout.
1. I do not support and would not support anything that looked like the USSR. I’ve said that before but it’s always worth mentioning.
2. It is undeniable that in the early stages of a socialist or communist state there is a susceptibility to power grabs. Capitalism has proven it is stronger in these early stages but I view these two as mirrors of each other.
Capitalism helps to prevent it in the early stages but because it allows for and actually demands the accumulation of wealth and power, it will inevitably result in the power being condensed into the hands of the few. Communism is more susceptible early but inevitably prevents it as it goes on (yes this is the “wait till we get our guys in there” argument but we’re also advocating for a once proud program to fire the coach before it goes 0-12).
3. My perception is that you guys view any type of power grab as “communism”. That the globalist capitalists are pushing us to communism by doing what capitalism demands. I assure you people were trying to become as powerful as possible long before communism. It feels impossible to even have conversations with you guys because of this. I don’t think we are anywhere close to socialism. I don’t think Bernie’s policies are a path to socialism. Barring a catastrophic event the US is a century (at least) from becoming socialist and if climate change isn’t real you got nothing to worry about. And you guys are like “banning people on twitter is communism”. It’s insane.
4. I’ve generally tried to avoid any type of real conversation since coming back. I don’t really think it’s worth my time to try and have genuine conversations with you guys. Not because you’re dumb but because you refuse to leave room to agree on anything. I can talk to dnc and agree on things or agree to disagree, my best friend wants to destroy the government completely and only leave capitalism to rule and we can talk and be civil and see each other’s side but you guys are out of your fucking minds.
But I appreciate you trying to watch the video so while it’s not exactly on topic of the video, that’s what it made me think about.
