Just a heads up that a lot of people are whoring themselves for google adsense revenue lately and doing large falsehoods in the act. Several large youtubers have been caught red-handed doing this.

One such case was the csgolotto incident where two really large youtube gamers in their early 20s pretended to gamble on a site they "just happened to stumble upon" which it later turned out that they owned. What makes this extra shady is that their target audience were minors. Several other famous large youtube gamers were caught doing exactly the same. It wasnt enough for them to make millions of dollars of their youtube channel alone, they just had to take it one step further..

Today it came to my attention that a guy that runs a channel called "unbox therapy" (some canadian hipster) had a giveaway video where he showed of his truck bed full of iphone cases.. turns out they were all empty and that he only gave away a small amount of iphones. The criteria for getting one was that you had to be subscribed to his channel.. which caused tonnes of plebs to subscribe. Getting a high ranking in the searches when it comes to iphones is a huge money maker it seems.. just look at all the videos of people destroying iphones in the most creative ways in order to get views.

It's a disease, the google adsense revenue disease. It's way to easy for any nobody to sign up for their program and show of their garbage as "content".

Another shameless video i saw lately was of a dude from the flooded areas of the US where he showed of his wife crying and some water in his apartment and played unironically sad music over it. I have more respect for people who outright e-beg than that sort of people.

You can make a ton of money on YT with ad revenue now. I posted a thread on making money with YT.

And yep, there is a lot of douche bags out there. You have to be a critical thinker. Unfortunately most people are not.

I've been watching a few car nut guys. Supercar spotters and so on. Many of them are just enthusiasts who find nice cars, take some videos, talk about the cars. They expand into other topics. Share plans. Go on road trips. Do actual car reviews. They get up to some hijinks and so on.

I was watching one popular YT'er who is doing various events in europe and moved to a temporary base at a friends hire car company at Nurburgring. The friend puts on a funny hat and a Russian accent and they have a bit of fun.

They had to do an actual reveal and meet with the guy behind the russian character because people thought it was serious and they were getting out of hand. Long story but people thought it was real. I don't understand how but goes to show, people struggle with real and not real now days. I think it's troubling.

And YT has its share of trolls. I'm frequently astounded by what people say to other people who have gone to the effort of making a real video and put themselves out there. Its very brutal sometimes. And the worst part is these people think they have some kind of right to say these things just because someone posted a video.

I guess if you expect people to behave badly you will never be disappointed.

my point was there was never an intention to pretend it was real. it was presented as a character from the start. I guess a lot of people believe a lot of people believe what they talk about. Perhaps the audience was younger than I thought.

I usually skip ahead about 2 minutes to find any real content because most youtubers spend that much time pimping themselves and doing the "make sure you subscribe" crap.

I realized you were talking in more specific terms. I just expanded it to other fields of unbelievable beliefs. Fact checking and rational thinking are on a rapid decline...

I feel a little abused and perplexed at the way some of my 'favourite' not mainstream Youtubers and Bitchuters have adopted the totalitarian government viewpoints and started gas-lighting their viewers in support of government destruction this flu season.

Many of the people I watch on youtube-bitchute are acting out like this the last few weeks. I've noticed it a few other times in crisis situations the last decade or so. Generally contrarians, they are aggressively pushing the 'official' version and response to events and harshly insulting any viewer who 'dares disagree'. The EXACT same totalitarian, narrative and tactics CNN etc. fake news corporate media and for some of us less lucky people, IRL narcissistic abusers have used.

Here's a comment I left on the tubes:

Angry gas-lighting abusive authoritarian Timmy is my least favourite Timmy.

After processing I've been narcissistically assaulted to trick me into bowing to totalitarian slavery, I'm left wondering is this person a Mason? CIA type intelligence or mockingbird ALT-media asset, a person of poorer character I would not want to get information from and why did I just see this now? or like you said, just a real person panicing. Is it just an early stage of Zombie apocalypse?



Tim, who is half Asian, and quite politically correct, 'acting racist' against Asians repeating the new China cold war propaganda

Another is mocking and insulting any "Libertarians" in their audience as they enforce the authoritarian overreach saying you can't go to work and have to stay in your house.

Another who complained of censorship in the past, angrily complains about the bother of having to ban or delete long time viewers who comment doubting or urge caution of overreaction.

Another big time philosopher basically starts lecturing to people to stay in the cave and its for their own good.

Etc, etc.


"gaslighting people [insulting and shaming viewer for having doubts or not being fully on board] trying to adjust to an unprecedented situation”

Like I said above, I've noticed this happening several times in mass over the last 15 years or so when there is a shock to normal western daily life.

Why do this generally contrarian and freedom living people suddenly start gas-lighting and abusing their viewers to shame and quilt them into going along with unprecedented government authoritarian abuse and restrictions on liberty?

So are these people:


Lizard people and the crisis is like giving me glasses to see them?
Triggered into a SensingFeeling SJW type unthinking, illogical cognitive personality?
Controlled opposition, freer than the corporate whore devils on MSM, but when they are ordered to do something they are just as controlled and destructive as mocking-bird MSM?
Like many others, they are panicing and this authoritarian abuse is early stage Zombie outbreak behaviour?





A separate issue is the smaller gang of Youtubers that pimped up this year's flu season panic before the MSM took over

I think you have it right at controlled opposition. "The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves." Can't remember who the quote was from. Probably Lenin. The best gatekeepers are the ones that are leading the doubters to the gate. The gate can lead anywhere but often to a land of illusion.I do believe that some alt or non-mainstream 'pundits' (for lack of a better term) start out right and get poisoned like cops do. Some are threatened and turn coat because of that and some are simply working for the dark overlords from the start.
