Livestream fuckery happened a moment ago. Everyone was talking about student loan debt and then it stopped for a couple minutes. Tim said their internet boxes or someshit failed at the same time and are back up now. Could be nothing, could be something.

All "4" of their connections go down at the same time, claims it could be a "coordinated attack".

The funny thing is the instructor was brought in to teach them self defense, but took one look at them and decided to go with basic fitness instead as a starter.

That's why the first thing I did when I got a new laptop was uninstall that garbage ass McAfee, cause their AV is like hiring retards as private security.
Whenever a company gets hacked I always have to ask myself, Okay, which boomer secretary clicked on a spam email that had a keylogger or piece of ransomware as an attachment?

The worst thing is that at one point I worked for a smaller company and we got one of those emails that's a fake PO to an order that was in the works over a year ago, because the company that was placing the order got hacked. Like normal I called the company sending the suspicious email to confirm it's what I thought it was, and they obviously said that yes such and such was hacked and now their account was sending fishing emails.
Being the good employee I went to tell the inside sales floor and others not to open the attachments or click the links, figuring no one opened the email yet because everyone was always painfully slow to respond to emails and whenever anything was asked of them they'd mention how swamped they were with work and emails from the day prior. This one day everyone had opened that one email already except for one person who was actually doing something else. The stupidest part was the purchasing department people told me they had opened the link and were entering their log in information, trying to get in to see the PO. They had entered pretty much all of the information they could throw at it.
The majority of these people were young people who should know better, including the one who just gave away all of their logins and passwords as fast as they could. I wonder if this is how people felt when regular literacy was becoming a commonplace thing, just watching people who couldn't figure out what a book was or why they needed to know how to read or write. I'm no cyber security expert but really if you get an email response to something from a year ago you should have some common sense.

I just want to say that Democrats attempting to disqualify popular Republicans from running for reelection is a pretty fast way to get that Civil War 2: Electric Boogaloo to pick up steam. I thought it was annoying how Tim kept insisting that a second Civil War was inevitable every other video, but I think we'll soon owe him an apology if the Democrats actually try to lock out Republicans from even running for election.

Tbqh lolberals like Tim are the reason things escalated so quick in the US. Who knew America would turn to shit when you defend and allow those who believe in a ideology americas been fighting since the later 40s and early 50s to spout their beliefs. Tim the nigga who would be extremely against Mccarthyism

I'm not sure that Tim Pool is completely wrong in his doomposting, I just think he's ignorant and forgets that this "civil war" shit (or whatever form it'll take) usually requires an economic component, such as a major depression, which we do not yet have.
We do, however, have the conflict and division... who knows what the future holds.
If Tim really wanted to be in on the action though he'd just disguise himself. Buy a fucking toupee man and fucking record the real shit and stop pretending you're a commentator.

He'd make actual progress if he stopped being scared of antifa milkshakes, left the compound and talked to locals.

Why even do that? He should send some of his stooges to just record shit for him.

Well, the last two he hired are furious at him for shutting down their Jan. 6 footage.
Also, I'd take his Civil War prediction more seriously if he wasn't such a damn weenie about it. The boy who cried wolf was right at one point, after all.

His fears are reasonable, since his opponents think he, the milquetoast commentator he is, is Nazi to the extreme. No, one thing I will not fault Pool for is cowardice, because we don't live in times that reward bravery. Antifa are the types that would throw normal milkshakes ten times to laugh at everyone for being cowards and then pack the 11th full of hydrochloric acid to disfigure him permanently while the cops will be ordered to stand down after investigation reveals a prominent left wing politician's offspring might have done it. No, Tim is more than rational, and while I don't enjoy watching Tim rehash ideas in the slightest I will not fault him for trying to stay alive and not look like an acid gollum, haha. The milkshake thing is no joke. Those people want you acclimated to "milkshakes" so they can add more "ingredients" later. Those could be rocks, explosives, or battery acid. The left does that. They've always done that and pulled up the mantle of martyr. They've done it against real fascists, too, but they've also done it to small-r republicans and moderates, too. Tim's enemies are no joke. They're nutso. Whatever flaws Tim has, his enemies have 10x over.
For whatever Mr. Pool's faults are, he is not an awful man or particularly stupid. Though... he really should PM me next time he thinks a Trust is gonna hide his identity. Mr. Timothy Pool is not a grifter and in today's politics that's probably as good a compliment as any. He may not be a brilliant thinker, but we have almost none of those these days.

Yup. I see so many aging former liberals and centrists equate cancel culture to McCarthyism, and it's a false equivalency.
Most of McCarthyism (both what McCarthy and the HUAC actually did AND the Hollywood blacklists, which get pinned on McCarthy even though they were a separate thing) was focused on going after people who were members of the US Communist Party, which was directly aligned with the Soviets, or were otherwise doing work for the Soviet Union. Literal agents of a hostile foreign power. And in a vast majority of those cases, they were proven to be completely correct when the Soviet archives were opened.
So they weren't just guilty of differing opinions. They were literally spreading enemy propaganda, and in some cases they were even being paid or given other incentives or resources to do so. They also tried to pressure other members of Hollywood into conforming their works to their views, something Walt Disney experienced personally, which is why he testified before the HUAC, something for which he's baselessly smeared to this day (whatever you may think of (((the tribe))) assertions that Disney was an antisemite are nonsense).
Meanwhile, the public narrative of the so-called "Red Scare" has largely been shaped by famous showbiz commies and fellow travelers like Arthur Miller, who were mad about their buddies getting exposed. That Miller's "The Crucible" is still used in school to teach kids about the "Red Scare" is ridiculous once you realize that it's using false accusations (of witchcraft) as a metaphor for accusations that have been proven many times over to be true (the Hollywood Eight were registered members of the Communist Party and were using their positions in Hollywood to spread communist propaganda). Hell, Arthur Miller himself REFUSED to rewrite movie scripts to show communists as villains or have "pro-America" messages.

The difference is in endpoint vs at-home software. McAfee and Symantec (Norton AV) have a decent portion of the enterprise market, and that software actually tends to work. The at-home software is a gimmick, essentially meant to sell to elderly people. It's gotten so bad that Norton AV includes a crypto-miner lmfao. These legacy antivirus companies are starting to fall off badly thanks to their cloud-based competitors like crowdstrike, and virtualization. So at this point their reliance on the home-based market is starting to become more important to an extent, and instead of looking to optimize the software, they're just filling it further with useless trash.
