He supports Tim to keep the overton window from moving further and further to the left, which would render his position (which is to the right of Tim) outside the overton window.
If you are left wing, as I assume most of you guys are, which is fine. But if you only ever see left wing material, you will loose sense of where centre is
pssht
Pretty sure 90% of this channel are mild conservatives.
Classical liberal and libertarian is kinda far right now
According to cnn
Joking aside its the left that moved so far left that anything center left to right is far right
Cause its far to the right of them
In the media world that is true
Average joe blogs I think still has a grasp on reality
I hope
All this culture war stuff is invisible to the average joe.
Which is how the left wants it.
Or they just dont care
The media want them uneducated.
Well, not uneducated as such. They just want to make sure that only a certain consensus is perceived.
Well indoctrinated you mean
Like if enough media keeps saying the same message, normies will go along to get along because they'll think that everybody believes it, even if it's just a tiny minority of networked lefties in media.
Well the average person does not care enough to look into it further
Back in the day it was Journolist.
All the major media personalities all got together online and coordinated their stories to have the same narrative. That made it seem like everybody believed the same thing even though it was only a few dozen connected people with a big platform. Since it seemed like the consensus, it *became* the consensus because joe average regular guy doesn't want to be on the fringe. He wants to be in the middle where it's safe and non-controversial.
Journolist got leaked though, because it was amateur hour. Journalists weren't exactly tech savvy back then.
And a mailing list isn't exactly secure comms.
They didn't stop of course. They just got more sophisticated.
I'd love to hear what Tim has to say on this. No doubt he wouldn't want to talk about it on an open forum though.
It's applied psychology. People want to conform to a group. Peer pressure. Everybody else is smoking, so you take a puff to be social.
Except with media you can't get an accurate picture of the size of the group or what everybody else is actually doing. You can only get a perception.
And that perception can be crafted to yield a desired effect.
i still think nuking the world is the best solution to all our problems
virtual shield to the rescue, Jun 1 my videos started getting demonetized hard, every video
They wernt already? /s
Huh, assumed you got all your funding from pateron.
They don't want you man.
Nothing you've ever produced is in any way threatening to advertisers.
I've watched just about every video you've uploaded. There's nothing there that would make any advertiser blink.
Everything you've posted could air on any news channel and be completely above board.
So it's not the content. It's political.
And they have all the power here. They're going to try to choke you. Make it such that you can't create content and still make ends meet.
I don't even think its political. At least not as much as we like to think. I think they are trying to limit available ad space as much as possible without just out right removing motivation from most of their users. probably hoping creators will leave, so they stop needing to pay for storing all these videos and jack up the price of ads to raise money.
given that they seem to strike out against the left and the right depending on who they think is about to draw the largest negative PR, or at least use it as an excuse.
