Tim Pool appeared on Triggernomentry and either he's still carrying the civil war grift or they're just taking the piss out of him.

Finally watched it now, so three days late on this, but honestly, I don't think the issue is Tim doesn't get it. I think he does; but he realizes that if he straight up says "Yes, my side is right, so we should be allowed whatever powers I think are 'necessary' for solving issues the way I want. But because the other side is wrong, they should not be allowed access to such powers.", everyone will (rightfully) call him a hypocrite, naive in the best of cases and retarded in the worst, and it will significantly affect his grift as well as how a lot of his milquetoast viewers perceive him.Watching it now. Timmy gets so close to the issue, but he's just too dumb to get to it. And Konstantin hammered him on it.
What Konstantin wanted to hear from Timmy was that if you believe your side is correct, you are justified to do whatever it takes to implement it. But timmy could not commit fully even to his own beliefs. Simply putting the duty of crossing the Rubicon to Caesar, rather then to himself.
Very milquetoast. Tim is very good at explaining the failings of progressivism and the far left. But he's very bad at articulating the alternative and why it needs to win. He's very good at explaining why the alternative wants to fight the ruling zeitgeist, but he has no understanding as to WHY.
The WHY is very important. Modern progressivism is an infidel religion. It is a wolf amongst the herd of Christ, and the Church must destroy it, with all the moral, theological and martial authority that the Church is empowered by, The believers of it must be made to recant, and failing to recant they must be burned. So that the weeds do not choke the good seed amongst the garden of the Lord.
I see this so many times in the alt-media. They keep dancing around it, and they don't just come out and say it.
When Konstantin asked him whether he would be ok with his ideological opponents also using such power, and he dodged it as best he could. Clearly he does not want his opponents to have such powers, but he can't say that. Which is ironic because his whole argument was "make laws and distribute powers based on morals, not principles." Well, his ideological opponents DO NOT HAVE THE SAME MORALS! So he should be able to beat his chest and say they shouldn't have access to such powers." because they don't have the morals he does.
But normal people would see that's BS, because the opponent would just go "He did it, so should I!" (which even Tim kinda did, with pointing to Biden and the others did with Trump) and then argue that Tim or his guys should not get to use their powers because HE DOESN'T HAVE THEIR MORALS. And Tim would completely disagree with that. One of the reasons government and legal systems try their best at adhering to principles over morals. (How well it actually works is a completely different question). But Tim wants /hisguy/ to have power which the /otherguy/ should not, so he says otherwise, then can't actually stand by that thought.
Furthermore, as Konstantin said, a lot of people do not consider this manipulation to be "4th/5th/6th gen warfare" (operative word being warfare) and thus would not necessarily support Timmy on the "Give Trump more power because media manipulation is warfare!!" front. And him comparing giving Trump extra powers over this to Lincoln and the Civil War is MUCH more retarded. Especially since other historians DO say that Lincoln suspending habeus corpus or arresting legislatures WAS dictatorial. The main disagreement being, were such actions justified due to the imminent war.
All in all, the whole thing was Tim going "I want /myguy/ to do what he wants because we're good, but the /otherguy/ should not be able to, because he's bad." and not being able to stick that because he couldn't admit it's based on "us good, them bad." since, as I said, saying as such would affect his grift and make him look like a hypocrite, naive and/or retarded.
