The Skeptic Community - Pseudo-intellectuals ranting on Youtube

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I'm going to admit.

I watched these 'intellectual' Youtubers for a while; I hardcore followed them and listened to everything they put out. I usually agreed with them and believed them to be intelligent individuals. But over the years I've been losing faith in these people and now I've completely cut myself off from them altogether. They've recently been getting involved with really petty drama and they constantly repeat themselves, always talking about the same thing over and over again with no change.

These guys sit on the internet complaining about politics and SJWs but they don't do ANYTHING about it, they never seem to get involved or try to fix problems, if they really cared so much about politics they'd run for an actual political position. Sargon of Akkad has been going for fucking years and only now has he gotten involved with an actual political party, however the political party he's gotten involved with (UKIP) is in complete disarray and has zero chance of ever winning anything.

I know this is not an original post but holy shit why did I used to listen to these people. If you don't like the way your country is going run for a political position, don't sit on Youtube waving your dick about and pretending you're a powerful person.

If you were an impressionable teen then you got your own answer.
If you were an adult then I have no answer nor comment
 
Personally willing to admit I've listened to a lot of people from the "skeptic" community, even to today still watch a few videos, but I think the important thing is not to become some blind cult follower or take them more seriously than the bloggers they are

For example I remember watching years back thunderfoot as he made videos on Sarkeesian, and I thought it was alright, it simply was a person giving his own take on the person, and I agreed, but then I remember around the US election and Brexit the guy veered into that side of politics, and of course a lot of people who watched him because of his anti feminist content got pissed, and I remember wondering why people were taking it so hard that a youtuber didn't agree with them, they're not your friends, they're not your leader, don't try to idealize a 30 year old man vlogging

I used to watch Thunderfoot on and off, I avoided his political stuff and only watched his stuff about scummy kickstarters, but then I noticed that when he would give an "update" to them such as the solar roads or the IR food thing his "updates" were mostly just him repeating what he said in previous videos even if it didn't really make sense in context to the update.

There was some quality roasting of Thunderfoot over his heretical views on Brexit.

Well they are displacing network news, the problem is they think it's because of their effort rather than network news committing seppuku

Basically everyone born after 1990 doesn't watch the jewbox anymore, so they're either getting their news from spergs on woke sites/blogs or spergs on youtube, the funny thing though is thinking you're going to be part of the new established news media rather than being displaced by whoever our Google overlords deign worthy once the dust settles

Only certain news channels are committing seppuku. Youtube ain't going to become the new place to get news.

The only way they're going to survive the next couple of decades is if they diversify to other platforms, the brats aren't going to magically start watching tv again when they enter their midlife
 
I'm honestly ashamed I even subbed to these brainlet cringelords in the past. Maybe CrazyHair was right this whole time...

No, no. The CrayzeeHair (however the fuck she spells it) drama just made everyone involved (skeptic, crazy, whoever) look fucking retarded. I always thought BlaireWhite came out of it looking the most retarded, but CH looked pretty bad all the same.
 
Oh dear lord.

Thunderf00t's videos have become irritatingly one track. "The Hyperloop is a joke and here's why! Also, here's why the Hyperloop is a joke! UPDATE: The Hyperloop is still a joke for all the reasons I listed before!"
