It just shows that people, when they know they're winning, want to engage directly
Engage for what?
Supreme victory
When people know they're winning their use force.
The end
?
We're talking about people who sit at home and make YT videos
These people who make YT videos know nothing of war.
The battlefield of ideas is real
They're very much being aidspigs.
They both act on behalf of interested parties, and do have their own beliefs.
Why would you need to out argue your enemy, when you can just report them out of existance?
Every civilzation had a battle of ideas, and it was brutal in the sense that it could ruin people's reputations and livelihoods
Don't think this is easy
I'm not saying it is.
@Comando Yeah they're trying to deplatform us because they know they're losing the battle of ideas
I'm saying when the shoe's on the other foot, they're the first to whine and throw their toys out the pram.
But as it stands, they have the institutional power behind them, and are more than willing to use it to propigate themselves.
They don't actually have those institutions behind them anymore
They do, but not for long.
Kek.
Massive media propigation on their behalf.
And QR sounds like he's extremely thirsty for it...
Their channel is fully monetized, allowing them lots of resources to make material.
The fact that they have been promoted in the msm means that Contra also has real world contacts, which has also likely helped them in ways which cannot be seen.
That is power... at least for now...
Watch Zara's video, he's on point
Oof.
I do not believe for a second that someone would refuse that quantity of advertising money
Who says he refused it?
Maybe he's lying. Who knows?
I mean Contra is lying.
Maybe.
What would he gain from that? That's such a random lie
In 2016 people were still complaining left right and center about the adpocalypse and everything
They moved to Patreon collectively
Because it would prop up an ideological narrative, while also scooping up that extra revenue.
Ok I choose to simply not go with that narrrative, it's too convenient
