Couple Thoughts On Kimmel

You all obviously know the back half of this video, but it doesn't hurt to remind you why it matters that you're here. Love y'all!

Comments

I'm here because of Kimmel. Unsubed to Hulu and used at money to invest in leftist podcasts and independent journalism:)

While your heart is absolutely in the right place and I will still say standing by your morals is good for you personal reasons, unfortunately I don't think boycotts from subscription services are going to have enough of a wide scale impact to do anything to fix it. On top of that and maybe more of the bigger issue is that I don't believe enough people are willing to give up their personal entertainment for a bigger cause. While most people are generally compassionate about these things and tend to skew left, too many people are caught up in their own daily exhaustions to have the energy or the want to sacrifice their "thing" that is letting them not think about the exhausting nature of their job and the current hellscape unfolding. As someone who is very into games and movies, people are very hell bent on drawing the line on things until it means they have to sacrifice the thing they love. As someone who is trans I've seen this too much with media :/

I’m trying to build an entire platform of creators where we charge a very low yearly fee, but building an entirely new platform from scratch is hard and takes a lot of investor capital and is a slow moving process.

Austin Archer

I genuinely don’t know. Sorry, but that’s my answer. This is just the only place where I’ve never been censored. That’s all I know.

Austin Archer

That’s unfortunately a good question. I’m not sure our votes counted in the 2024 election. I’m not at all convinced this regime came to power legitimately.

Austin Archer

Do we think our votes will matter by time the 2028 election gets here?

Jaime L

Yes! THIS is the resistance 😜 I will also be gifting subscriptions

I joined yesterday but have been following on youtube for like 3 or 4 years now I think. Happy I am finally backing you and kinda mad at myself for waiting so long. Regardless, I had a question for you about Patreon being a stronghold in the sense you are talking about. Do you think we could see an uptick of free options on different content creators Patreons because this website stays firm in not bending the knee and being a safe place for leftist to post their content? I mainly ask because if that were to happen, do you think Patreon would then be getting focused more by the bastards in charge? or the fact that all of Patreons revenue comes from people paying into their content creators that they would be able to maintain out the fascists sights regardless?

Joined the Patreon specifically because of this news.

Its blatant hypocrisy and inverse projection. They have no morals or convictions if they are very openly taking a diametrically opposed positions on things like THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH! Take my $ and keep speaking truth!

Terry Mickail

America is already so deep in fascism. Please people, do anything to stay safe.

Sejl

Gotta get more creators doing this. And I have to find more who have made the move and charge $1. One still has the $5 but I'm sure it's tough to make the leap.

Sam Quincy

I just hope Jimmy doesn’t bend over and give in to the demands of the Sinclair family. I canceled Hulu and Disney today. We need to stand together and hit them where it hurts, their pockets.

Three Ravens

Yes. Sometimes I can’t get things up here early. Pretty much anytime there’s a new episode of the podcast or a new YT exclusive video or a new TikTok that I had time to work on it will go here first. But when I’m covering developing stories I can’t always afford to delay the release to my public platforms, so for those videos I’ll occasionally post publicly and here simultaneously.

Austin Archer

Yeah, some really dark writing is on the wall. I think the pendulum will eventually swing the other way as it always does, but too many will be lost. October 18th y'all, let's make this next No Kings protest MASSIVE.

Seth Hart

This fucking sucks.

Dougdebug

I've been hearing people demanding blood but I'm pretty sure they're still coasting on assuming everything from day one.

Sage Newgard

Not a criticism, but this video came up in my TT fyp several minutes before I got the push noti here on patreon. Is that the order they were posted?

Kelvin Nishikawa

Just joined this Patreon Ty so much for making these vids and pls charge more if you need to!!!!
