Locals like Patreon is a funding site where you can upload videos, but viewing them is pay piggies only. According to Dave, you should be able to put anything legal that isn't porn on locals. This is an impossible claim, because payment processors, cloudflare and any other company your enterprise has to depend upon can stop their services if certain content isn't censored. There is also the fact that Dave Rubin is a Jedi and they're known to think that certain opinions lead you to the dark side and usually try to cleanse such heresies.

Do you think that locals has any chance or is it just another Jedi mind trick?

I wish he had called it Yokels, to be honest. More cheeky.

Dave Rubin is late to the party. Subscribestar and New Project 2 are where it's at. Who needs Patreon? Fuck Patreon. Their monopoly is over.

 

[Iron Hamster]

Well, he just took too long to get to the party. He and Petersen started thinking of this before they even left Patreon.

 

[Mediocre]

We've all heard that one before, it's all fun and games until someone uploads a Holocaust denial video and then the ADL pressure the payment processor to shut it down.

locals.com sounds like a Windows 95 component.

I've only poked around the video and it's a bunch of meaningless nonsense that describes literally nothing about the service but one thing he does talk about is he seems to suggest is that you will not be allowed to be anonymous on the service. "You won't have to fight with pink foxes and Street Fighter characters. We need a maturing of the internet."

Sounds like a file that would get infected by the Love Letter virus.

It sounds like dating service

 

[DumbDude42]

I was thinking more of a Craiglist knock off or a dating site. "Meet hot and sexy locals, single and ready to mingle, only at Locals.com!"

This. As soon as I saw that title I immediately thought of shitty ads about hot singles in your area.

This should be standard practice every time one of these "free speech" platforms opens up. Hold their feet to the fire to see if they're remotely legit or full of shit like all the rest.

 

[Xiphias]

Eh, took a look at it recently. I like that you can have a look at the creator's feeds without paying so you know what you're going to get. But for some reason I have to log in again every time I want to see a new community, and there's no aggregated news feed if you want to know what's going on in several.

They should have said Gumroad. If they’ll take Sam Hyde they’ll take anybody.

Dave Rubin's always up for a conversation. Dave's a big fan of nuance and stuff, loves having people to talk to, come to a compromise about things.

I forget, why was he kicked off the Young Turks? During the 2014 Intifada, was he the one that thought those kids on the beach in Gaza deserved to get incinerated by the IDF missile, or was it Cenk getting mad he pleaded for mercy?

He wasn't kicked off, he left.
