That's why he has more subscribers that the CNBC and other popular mainstream propaganda outlets, because he's untrustworthy /s 🤡

Let's focus on the substance of the information being presented rather than the person presenting it.

Sure they are so well funded /s. At least they are able to speak their mind without getting banned.

Noted. You can go back to watching your favorite mainstream propaganda outlet.

Youtube bans North Korean vloggers, so much for "free speech".

So they blocked a channel of harmless snack-eating videos because the uploader is in NK? What am I missing?

He says something about the invincible comic having a white woman who was illustrated as a woman of color in the show and that people call that "woke".

The way they've simplified the game for the neurons, it still has a long way to go.

I tried in [email protected] but the bot doesn't work because of a protection set on /signup and /login pages.

Oh yeah I was thinking more along the lines of video games or movies where there are too many people creating it. For books, etc you can definitely donate.

There should be a way to pay only the workers when you buy something. In that case, you could pay them but only after pirating and making sure you enjoy it. Since there is nothing like that, I think you should pay only content from small creators. Big creators already have plenty, and paying for anything else just gives money to greedy executives who then lower the quality of the content to make more money. Of course, if you have the means and don't pay anything, you are just making sure there will be less of that content made in the future. It isn't scalable; if everybody pirated content without paying a single cent, there would be no content made except by hobbyists who don't want to make a living out of it.

Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud, was a pioneer of propaganda and public relations. He is credited with the introduction of bacon and eggs into the American breakfast. In the 1920s, Americans typically ate light breakfasts of coffee, orange juice, and rolls. In order to increase bacon sales, Bernays wrote to 5,000 physicians asking whether a heavy breakfast was better for health than a light breakfast. 4,500 physicians wrote back confirming that a heavy breakfast was better for health as the body is depleted of nutrients after a night of sleep. This "research" of doctors encouraging Americans to eat a heavier breakfast, namely "bacon and eggs," was published in several major newspapers and magazines to great success. Beech-Nut's profits increased rapidly, and bacon and eggs became a staple of the American breakfast[1][3][4][5][6].
