Tim Pool - 'journalist' who claims to be a sensible centrist & sucks Sargon of Akkad's wiener; Afraid of the Milkshake ANTIFAs

It's becoming obnoxious how half his videos now have him repeating some variation of "the mob will come to your house and you won't be able to do anything! They'll make you fly their flag and if you don't the police will arrest you! You can do nothing, nothing!"

It's like a combination doomer mentality/humiliation fetish.
 
I like how Tim has been stumbling down the rabbit hole. The most interesting part of all of this is how he's slowly become more disillusioned with the left, and he's only a few steps away from becoming a Fox news anchor or pundit. If only time-travel was real, I would gladly travel back to 2015, snatch off his beanie, and yell at him "Nigga, you're going to vote for Donald Trump in 2020! Nigga!!!".

You are a fool if you believe he didn't vote Trump in 2016. This "red pill journey" is nothing but a grift. Tim is now, and has been for a while, a conservative.

Oh, he has. At least since 2018. I just don’t think he has accepted that fact comfortably till recently. He is definately grifting but I think he honestly wishes he was still Left.

imo he’s apolitical. I see him as wishing trump wins again because his content is so focused on TDS that any other political course would make him fear a drop in youtube clicks

Nah, I gotta press X to doubt here. Tim has all the wishy washyness and indecision that is so typical to the left. He and Joe Rogan are both like that.

The amount of times they both say 'I don't really know much about...' when talking about conservative viewpoints gives it away. So many times I read in the comments of one of their videos or think myself, 'Why don't you demonstrate some intellectual curiosity and find out? After all, it is your fucking job.'
 
Kinda off topic but does this TF2 Red vs Blue style of politics work to americas benefit?
Does it just look silly but actually work, or is it genuinely as dumb as it sounds? Asking for a friend.

It's more like a natural consequence of bottom-up politics. Without getting into the philosophies of various American parties (The Democrats have proven they change all the time anyways), the Two-party system is the result of consolidating electoral power. Why? Because when power is split in more than 2 ways, it's not necessarily equal. Which is a reason why multiple parties form coalitions. We see it in British politics too. Technically, they have four parties: Tory, Labour, Green, Lib Dem. The distribution of power, however, is not equal as the former 2 control the most seats between them and the other two are minority parties that typically follow the lead of a major party. In the US, the two party system is similar in that we have third parties, but are statically insignificant. The one time when we had credible third parties that could win a presidential election was in 1860, which threw Lincoln's legitimacy into question since he won the electoral college, but with a number under 51%.

It is also important to note that even in the two-party system, a major party can still fall out of favor and cease to exist. It happened to the Federalists and the Whigs. They may seem invincible, but neither party is and they know it. It's part of why Trump is so terrifying to the politicos.

I actually find him worse than Glenn Beck at his worst. Beck was a shrieking weirdo, but his show was very obviously conservative confirmation bias. He delivered on what he promised even if the content he made was stupid. Tim Pool is just as much of shrieking weirdo, but pretends to be an unbiased reporter that also creates conservative confirmation bias. I don't agree with David Pakman or your general Leftist on much, but they are totally right to doubt the fuck out of Tim Pool's claims on anything. It's why I find him a net negative for his side on the culture war, he agitates, but doesn't lead them anywhere.
 
eh the only thing i like about tim is that he briefly worked in media and talks how his editor? producer? gave away the game about how he d want to do interesting stories with out the wokeness, he was told "hey people like these stories but you need the wokeness angle"

Him "fact checking" news stories and calling out "media basis" would be interesting.

But he crosses the line from "journalist" to just repeating talking points and being emotional. The emotional appeals is how you get engagement.

I do find his timcasts about how people are leaving the democratic party to go to trump. And how the left started to eat him. But honestly he should have his hapa ass over at the riots and not just making 13 videos a day.
 
I honestly don't even know how other retards think this retard is smart. Straight up giving high school drop outs a bad name.

Does this retard not know how wars work?

If there is an actual war, and the right wins, you can bet leftists are going to die. If he's somehow implying that the left will purge the right that didn't fight but the right won't I suggest he learn who Pinochet, McCarthy, and Jair Bolsonaro are.

the argument is more like:
"Over the span of the last 6 years the media has polarized the political discourse and repelled a large portion of their viewers in the process. They now survive solely on hate baiting political extremists and without it they would collapse because normal people are disgusted by them and fanatics would loose interest. Thus they need their boogieman to survive.
Because of this process they are also stuck on a loop of escalating this hate baiting to keep fanatics interest and should they stop the mob they created will turn against them"
Cant really include all that in a post on the worst fucking platform to talk about anything. I'm not making this up, btw he pretty much keeps saying this on repeat since alt least last year.

As for weather or not this is a valid point, i don't know. Judge for yourself.

That's a case of Tim needing to take English Composition courses. Your argument is good, but it's definitely putting words in his mouth.

Meh, I agree with @Dreamer. I understood what Tim was trying to say. It's Twitter; there's not much room to say it. They have an unsustainable business model and the only thing keeping them alive is a regular diet of Trump.

No different than saying Gamestop would go out of business overnight if Microsoft and Sony said no more physical games. Their business model is based on a regular diet of resellable games and that's the only thing keeping them alive.
