It goes beyond that. They claim to criticise religion and call themselves atheists, but what they really dislike is Christianity and they are very religious in their own thinking too. Bomberdude is as militant to his beliefs as many extreme Catholics I've met and he's completely irrational about what he defends.Not explicitly a fan of hbomberguy, but the video he made where he took Armoured Skeptic apart for labeling anything he disagrees with as "political" woke up teenage me from a lot of internet nonsense. It's interesting to look back and see how many self-identified critical thinkers could only respond effectively against loons, strawmen, and clickbait. All the while portraying themselves as heroes, rogues, and geniuses for going after the most low-effort targets.
As funny as that is, Greg will never have it again. He made the mistake of believing his ego when it told him he could have any woman he wants.Every time I see that picture, I just remember this meme.

Happened during a stint while this thread was locked so you won't find much here, and I think most references will just be in threads of other cows that shilled it. Summary: "Free speech" app that was sponsoring a bunch of Youtube atheists and anti-SJWs was really just collecting training data for a censorship AI. A Google-owned (or Google-collaborated, I forget) censorship AI. Harmful Opinions exposed it, including the insane contract the shills signed. The rest of the "freethinkers" turned on him, but in the end he was right.R8 me l8 but what is this Candid situation people keep mentioning?

Based on the current political opinions of the skeptics that shilled it, I wouldn't be surprised if they knew that Google would use it to censor YouTube and approved of that idea.Happened during a stint while this thread was locked so you won't find much here, and I think most references will just be in threads of other cows that shilled it.

As I recall Shoe called it "Twitter but cute" or something in her promo.
Best part of the saga, IMO: One of the other shills (Bearing) did an interview on his channel with the Candid CEO. She called him Patrick, effectively semi-doxing him on his own livestream. He then had to tell her, the head of this "free speech" company, that people use pseudonyms on the internet to protect their identities.
Does Greg still live in Ontario? Move somewhere cheaper. Sell your nerd shit and buy it back when you have a more stable life.
I quoted these posts because they are important to point out that these youtubers like Armored Skeptic used to make a lot of money, way more than most people here think, for example DSP used to make around 250k to 300k in the golden years just from youtube videos and now he makes 80k a year, and he wasn't even a big name, people think that youtubers make the income of an average worker when they in fact make way way more than that when they are successful(remember that youtube used to pay more than now, and youtubers have means of directly getting money donations, and also can have sponsorships and merch). Greg probably made more money than what engineers make just from youtube videos, yet he invested nothing of it and spend it all on worthless shit like extremely expensive housing, toys, vacations,etc. Content creators on the internet don't need to work a job on the side when they get to a certain size like a lot of people here are saying, that is something you do if you already have a good job to begin with or are not that successful, working a normal job would pay way less than what they are earning at the moment, and if instead of being immature these content creators invested their money in the safest thing possible they wouldhave a nest egg to not have to work again and their money would compound over time, getting a job as a carpenter when you are making that amount of money makes no sense and if they managed it properly they wouldn't need to work again. Normal everyday people with average jobs who are responsible can save money, yet all of these content creators can't for some reason even though they make more, makes you think.Not to mention is often too retarded to do something useful with their money, such as properties etc
Generally you would hear stories of people who aren't good with money winning some sort of lottery only to lose it all in record time. You just get used to a flow, I suppose. If you were on pennies then you'd live carefully, if you suddenly got a steady flow of thousands per month, you'd adapt up I suppose. That is, if you aren't careful. Most people tend to live a bit over their means and have no fall back savings or plans.Can someone tell me how exactly this happens? This guy used to be big, he must've been making banoonoo money, how the fuck does one manage to go through his entire life's savings without thinking "uhh, maybe I need to get a job"? You'd think he'd get hit by that thought sooner than by "I'm starving ohnonono help me youtube"
Why doesn't Armored Skeptic just do a livestream and get Super Chats?

Believe it or not, youtuber shit generally drops into stubborn behavior where they think the job of youtube is "breaking the system" in a way. They feel that not doing a traditional 9-5 job is worth chasing, even if they don't know dick about marketing themselves or investing in a type of content. Its sort of like the DarkSydePhil syndrome, you see a man who barely evolves, only when needed to. Who works way too hard to mine with no new adaption. People who are there are just generally broken people who donate or just trolls watching.
Some people experience burn out, especially with youtube. Shit moves fast and especially in the political sphere. He probably experienced the stress of not getting something "going" or "finished" and let time fly by, as time goes on he experiences even more anxiety because of how much time has passed. Think about it this way: He had it all, a good youtube channel, growth, a bald fiancé he can hang over people's heads, D.I.N.K. (Double Income No Kids). Poof, its gone, all of it. He had a chance to come back, but the time has come and gone. He needs to move on or just evolve into something new for any audience he may have left.
Thinking about it, probably just a passive guy who fell into a lucky, fast and short streak of good luck and it turned sour over time.
The continuance of their BDSM larp in the context of a fuckin awkward e-marriage would've been more interesting than shoe's current arc imo. Especially if she wound up having kids with him.What other options does he got? Growing into middle age with his dumb youtube channel, crying about not getting the video views that he wants, writing live-journal styled entries on the community tab about how sad he is. Maybe having a kid would have fixed her.
Ah yes, that godawful 4 horseman cringe shit he did with Sargon, Thunderf00t, & TJ Kirk lmaoIf you want proof, he wrote an embarrassing love letter to himself where he described himself as part of a new wave of atheist horseman, giving himself the title of "the skeptic".
These people don't live in reality; they think they're beyond such a plebian ordeal like a 9 to 5 and are incapable of thinking more than 3 weeks ahead.Can someone tell me how exactly this happens? This guy used to be big, he must've been making banoonoo money, how the fuck does one manage to go through his entire life's savings without thinking "uhh, maybe I need to get a job"?

No one who has a political youtube channel is an intellectual. No one.You just described Harry Brewis himself to a tee.
That he is considered to be an "intellectual" by the mentally handicapped, perpetually online political left is honestly worrisome.
The only men who can pull that off are guys with stripper physiques and incredibly charismatic.Armored Sceptic could be trying an old and much trodden thot model of pretending to be depressed, with some slight suicide baiting, and getting simps to send lots of money. It might work, but Greg probably doesn't have a physique or feminity, well isn't a beautiful or semi hot 6/10 female.
And the biological wall claims another. Hard to believe Skeptic is so old now, he's withering up without the blood of fetal alcohol women to sustain him.he should have just gotten over the creepy bald head and knocked up shoe, its possible advancements in science will allow her to grow her hair back some day. Now he's all alone acting like a big homo.
