the comments on that burger king ad are awesome 😄

"if you pay two dollars more for your razor blades, did you say something than?" no, i buy the blue ones, now give me my fing chickEN fries. 😉

My mom buys mens razors cuz she's not dumb

well... there are legitimate things to say about women's products costing more... mainly that it's either dumb to buy the pink one if the color is the only difference and that you can decide to go for the lower quality men's product if there is a difference other than the color.

nice trick https://twitter.com/triketora/status/1023165167390142464?s=20

obvious move is obvious 😉

what other platforms could it be used on though... not sure how it would work on twitter/youtube/facebook for example

Just scrolled up and there was a debate about CNN's influence outside USA. Nobody in UK pays any attention to CNN and given the rest of Europe would be having to watch it not in their native language, they likely have zero interest in it also. That leaves maybe Australia, Canada and New Zealand, which I know nothing about. But in Europe CNN is a non-entity.

i don't think other platforms have "fake review and get banned" policies, though

eeeeehm https://twitter.com/bennykoval/status/1022880473050214400?s=20

i don't take people serious that use the hammer & sickle in their username. too much headache.

Actually though, even though none of us plebs in Europe watch CNN, I suppose that media organisations here may still be affected by CNN's output. Journalists in Europe may well watch CNN. So in that regard it can still have influence in Europe.

yeah, sure that way it does have an influenza

I think journalists in other continents or global regions get a lot of their information on the rest of the world via the "trusted sources" of those nations/regions (so CNN is probably viewed as a trusted source for finding out what's going on in USA).

it is

yeah... i'll refer back to my earlier point of journalists not doing their job 😉

dutch media parrots CNN

@Timcast the august 4th video didn't show in my notif feed

ooo interesting

Yee....

I haven't seen it yet, cause I like to binge videos when I get home from work

can't wait though, I love a good rip into the asshole of CNN

👌

my 2nd channel is doing better than my main

2nd channel is more how I feel about something

I like your content on both equally personally

People like personalities.

main is how what I think about things

feelings sell better I guess

Part of why Defranco is big is because he gives his ideas. as well as the facts

i did not subscribe to the second channel in the first place... just go to it directly and watch the videos from the there...

?

new studio set up coming, you may have noticed the boxes

But yeah, I think because people are used to emotional article-readings (see: sargon, veeh, bearing, et cetera) it's what's selling with you

i just arrived at my new place in philly and the movers dont bring everything till monday

Brutal

Im gunna have a fireplace <:timcat:463067464016855040>

Ooh that sounds cozy

a real one or the supervillain version that roaming millennial has? 😉

looks really cool

Now here's what you do, you hang a massive neon sign behind you that says "logic and reason are as good as treason". That'll get you the lefties.

a real one

its a wood stove fireplace tho

hey tim, do you ever get people from the MSM asking for you to do interviews?

I can't recall you doing one

at least not in the last few years

He was on Fox.

Recently.

oh I don't really fox so that makes sense

I do like their local reporting though

they're good at that

i like tucker talking to crazy people 😉

We need fire-side chats now Tim.

Tucker has the best WTF face ever.

Oooo yes

Fireside chats.

Or fire-side streams

Evening ladies and gentlemen.

Need to get the fancy arm chair

my dad had a fireplace when i was little...

Get one of those fancy robes.

fox news has me on every so often. Ive gone on bloomberg and msnbc before

You know who I miss in a rather shaudenfreudein way?

Nancy grace

and Ive done actual reporting for ABC News

she was so blood-boiling

I kinda miss her

at least, I miss her main shows

I hear she's got her own little crime show now

that's cool Tim

You get around

its funny

fox news and msnbc had me on for the same reasons

talking about black bloc violence

but MSNBC, I mean msmbs wont cover that now

could make violent idiots look like violent idiots

God forbid they cast their pet masked vigilante group in a vaguely unfavorable light

black bloc is religion of peace

What would msmbs stand for?

main stream network of bull shit

Mettwork? 🤤 Mett.

oh I didn't notice the second m was in fact an m

Main Stream Mess of Bull Shit

mildly senile media

I wonder

would it be feasible to creat a sort of network among commentator channels

or would that be too restricting

I think there should be a masterlist of commentator channels and people with brief summaries of their content type

for people who want to get into this area of the internet

I think the less organized/centralized the better

So then I think we should compile some kind of masterlist, yeah.

Otherwise you risk creating just another echo chamber

everyone from green to sargon to rubin to tim to dank and bearing and jeremy to veeh and

well

other left-leaners that I don't know much about

lmfao

@Timcast even if main channel doesn't get as many view because less feelings, doesn't make it any less important. Quality over quantity and what not

Problem with current „left-leaners“ is that they are either „alt-right“ or completely dishonest.

and subverse gets the least but thats life

Well I don't know much about subverse man

subverse is going to be boring as fuck in a lot of ways

it doesn't have a load of content yet and you don't mention it as often

we are planning straight laced news

i actually really liked the podcast

^

Get the CW Podcast on spotify lmfao

I wonder why fucking Rogan's not on spotify

subverse daily vids will be straight news shorts and likely never get traction on youtube

but itll be done because it should be

I like the podcasts, last time I checked though their wasn't much activity on subverse

but it'll be there, TIm, that's what matters

oh I see

we re agoing to have regular content on subverse soon

gotta move into the new spot

The lack of content is a problem there... with main and second channel one knows when videos are coming.

probably going to make a livestream channel next too

gaming live streams

but not like fortnite

more like, play games and talking politics

so those are gonna be like what, 2-4 minute videos on subverse ?

If you're gonna stream games, why not twitch?

Subverse has great potential

Use YouTube as a VOD repository

When subverse has a constant stream of content, I'm sure the views will pick up, just subbed now, the las time I checked it there was only the one video within the 3 months, only discovered you within this last month

Twitch might be a bit off if the games are only backdrop to talking politics... BUT you might reach some new people.

@Timcast miss the livestreams you used to have before youtube striked you

guna do more once i get settled

guna make a new channel for them tho

can't wait bro

@I AM ERROR it doesn't matter what you talk about, as long as you're playing games.

And if it does matter, hell, he could do IRL streams

wow did you just write 'guna'
that has GUN in it..
RESTRICTED DEMONETIZED PUT ON LIMITED STATE

Yeah, thats why i said that it might be off, not that it is against policy 😁

Expectations from people there might be... incompatible with tim dabbing on cnn while playing hearthstone 😁

Not really that off, sure most people are there for games and most channels forbid politics from their chats but that might only be good for tim. Look at destiny, he's doing fine and he talks politics alot.

And he seems to be off in generall.

I don't know, I don't watch him but the point is, the potentional audience is there, much more since the invention of IRL and other non gaming sections

@Timcast Whats the future plans for Subverse?

Yeah, my sister is streaming herself painting sometimes 😁

Still hoping for more skateboarding footage

I remember him mentioning that

the ~~cake~~ skateboard is a lie

Dems seem to be intent on making sure that they lose as many elections as possible.

But running alot of content series gotta be exhausting

Yeah, and then turning your hobby into more content wouldn't help if it wasn't something you really want to do over relaxing and just doing your thing.

Nah I was meaning more of how specific that was for a news channel

Like news tech, and skateboarding

Techs not too active now

Did Tim say if he's going to be covering the PP rally in Portland?

Doubt (X)

Kinda want to have someone reliable streaming the fireworks.

Theres just too many rallies and it aint cheap going to one

yeah I guess travel cost is usually not worth for one day event

If Tim is saying that there's basically going to be a battle, it's probably going to be newsworthy and there's going to be good footage.

He can see things first hand instead of having to read articles written by others and trying to parse out what happened second hand.

So when is Tim doing a collab with Robscallion

i might go to portland but im not sure

antifa would target me

get a helmet with a gopro on it

anyway man, you can't let these dickheads have veto power over what you cover and what you don't. if you think it's newsworthy go, if you don't think it's newsworthy then don't.

just don't let some dipshit trashcan assaulting soyboy choose what you can and can't cover

How much of a factor is antifa presence or awareness is when it comes to choosing what to cover @Timcast ? Cause I was sure alot of them dont even know who you are.

Cause I dont know how dangerous the us ones really are amd the radio silence on the issue does not help either.

Just take the beanie off, they will never know it's you

We now do though

Go to Portland @Timcast and document as much as possible.

Fuck antifa, I have had run in's myself and the sterotype lives up.

Lol maybe ill let the patrons say. They are the ones paying for it.

What do you think this is? Capitalism?

Yes, the greatest system we have!!

heya

This could be great for your career tim...but you also may die

high risk high reward

Lol. Let the patrons decide. Personally not a fan of asking another to make the sacrifice.

@Timcast if you go, just stay safe.

Tim, if you go...

Buy some paperclips and attatch your beanie like a fucking helmet lmao

you know some dickweed with a face-bandana is gonna try and take it

Tim without his beanie would be like Samson having his hair cut off. He'd lose all his power.

@Timcast yeah, opinions sell better and are just easier. It's why Townhall and IJR aren't very good. They started as serious attempts to build an accurate alternative news infrastructure away from the mainstream news outlets after Rathergate.

But then the bills came due and they shifted to being more overt opinions.

I've always found it deeply disappointing. I've felt that if there was institutional support there is a market for something like Fox (ideally more centered) online. But so far the industry is so over-saturated everyone's now just eating each other in opinion pieces (including, increasingly, the mainstream outlets).

With respect to Portland, what if you just flew a bunch of drones for most of the event remotely? Stay out of the immediate fray and maybe find some people who look OK to interview afterwards. Personally, I wouldn't go near that fight with a 10 foot pole, but I'm admittedly a bit of a coward.

Regardless of what you decide, stay safe. I think we can all respect your decision whatever it may be.

What are the regulations on flying a drone in the city?

Seems pretty lax: https://romanolawpc.com/oregon-drone-laws/

Another option would be to try and plant cameras in hidden locations ahead of time. Though that might be very dangerous in it's own right.

Bad idea, people will HWNDU it

Only if they know it's happening.

It's still dangerous. It means Tim would be walking around doing suspicious things in suspicious places. He could look like he's planting explosives or something for example. Or we could get another round of "get the neo-nazi" where the "neo-nazi" isn't a neo-nazi.

Yeah, the hidden camera idea is not so recommended. Drone could work though. Or Tim and some friends could play hot potato with the one camera. Monkey in the middle, with some antifa shitstains as the monkey.

Wear a body cam, tape all you can.
If you get hurt you get to be victim of the week, get a bunch of coverage and get new followers

Get one of those google maps 360 cameras and wear it as a helmet

Dude, theres dozens of people who get hurt in these rallies, and little to no converage on them.

Some guy smashes a stick on an antifa goon and hes the villan of the week. Some antifa bush porno actress gets socked in the jaw and shes the hero.

I dunno if stickman was ever villainized.

If he was, I missed it.

In the media he was, but social media praised him

The world of good I do myself by never watching the mainstream media. lol

Stickman got arrested and convicted. ANTIFA got off by threatening the judge (in a way)

And bikelock guy's case took ages to resolve

I dont think its done yet actually

If true, that's **bananas.**

Pardon my foul language.

He's being hailed as a hero in many circles. Academia has circled the wagons.

it takes one nutcase to kill a president, it takes millions to constantly threaten people for supporting one.

When this heatwave gonna end, its killing my family's garden

In Cali?

Ye

Ah, water rations?

That's cali for ya.

@Scribblehatch The trial has to be read about to be believed: http://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/06/18/jury-deliberates-over-alleged-berkeley-protest-attack-of-trump-supporter

**“Just because the victim is dislikable doesn’t mean the rules don’t apply,”**

This could be the quote of the decade.

Literally, this decade. SJWs are gonna be what the 10s are known for. Just like the 80s had stupid hair.

Lol articles popping up about trump not visiting troops in war zones

I heard Trump didn't pick up a gold coin off a bear trap. What is he, a total wussbucket?!!

Also trump calling london hospital a war zone because of mass stabbings

Probably feels like one, instead of bullets, you get stab wounds

Wtf

This one doctor claims gunshot wound is more troublesome compared to knife wounds

Didnt he visit soldiers anyway?

Saying wounds are harder to treat from gunshot vs knife

I mean, does he include removing the bullet?

Im sure i remember it was the other way around

Well the issue is getting the bullet out, yes?

Cause without having to remove it, should be easier

But bullet does less dmg compared to knife

Or could be one of those doctors who complain that hollowpoints cut through glvoes

Unless we talking hollowpoints

Knives potentially do wider damage. But a bullet's trouble is that it's still in there.

Curious, in the US civs can use them right?

Brohi tweeted. “Gunshot wounds are at least twice as lethal as knife injuries and more difficult to repair.”

Kek, using one tweet to justify gun control

People should use FMJ for self defense so that it has less chance of stopping the attacker, and more chance of going through them and into an innocent in the other room

I could swear bullets dont do much since most will be through and through

Knives do more since they can cut vessels and organs as they pass compared to a bullet

Stickman got arrested? I never heard about that

That needs to be passing through a specific path to do more dmg

That's assuming you don't snag a bone.

Stickman was let off I recall

Even with bone iirc

The lose of a knife fight bleeds to death in the streets

A knife will do more damage.

556 doesnt have much kinnetoc energy

What! Cleaving through bone. Who are we talking about here?

Stickman seemed like a clear case of self defense/defense of others imo

The winner bleeds to death on his way to the hospital

A gun makes it easier, but you dont need one to kill
