Really unlikely, any political video I post loses me hundreds of subs, without fail.

From now on whenever someone asks that question I'm going to go on in detail about some compelling future project in the works that I can't reveal too much about yet ;)

I’d love to know how life is better now. Everything (groceries, rent, etc.) is up under Biden. The world is burning and we are more divided than ever despite Biden promising he would unite our nation. Biden is chaotic and doesn’t know where or what he is - in control of our nuclear codes because of the New Democrats (Bush Republicans).

The torries were already leftwing in all but name, it won't be a significant change, things will just continue to decline slightly faster, and with higher taxes

@@dustinbird9170 The torries are not left wing at all! what are you on about! the current labour government aren't even that left wing!!!

The Tory’s getting thrown out of government wasn’t an upset. They’ve been doomed since Covid, ever since then they’ve had scandal after scandal. The biggest difference between Uk politics and American politics is tactical voting. We’ve got more “liberal” and “progressive” MPs in the house of commons than ever before. Labour 411 Liberal Democrat’s 72 Greens 4

France had a leftwing upset. Britain had a US-style exchange between two right wing parties of a different colour.

@@ASMRSmith1 yeah, because theres nothing more right wing than open borders, high taxss and bloated social programs. There is no real right wing in Europe, there are only nationalist lefties, and globalist lefties.

it is fascinating to see how differently left wingers view reality, because I don't think anything approaching a majority, or even large minority, or people would agree that media/entertainment isn't political ENOUGH

@dustinbird9170 totally get where you're coming from, and definitely not saying more media *should* be political, just that it's a shame that expressing a political opinion aside from utterly milquetoast takes like "war is bad" and "I think we should work on dealing with corruption and incompetence in government" is a death sentence to monetization on platforms like KZbin. Big media shows can get away with it already, but streamers and small content creators? Nope, be universally advertiser-friendly in your content or be tossed into the bin of forgotten creators. Even with larger right-leaning and left-leaning channels, they have to lean on in-video sponsorships and patreon/subscribestar/etc to survive, because their content is almost universally deemed as unmonetizable by the algorithm gods. Not that I don't understand why an advertiser might balk at having their detergent ad play in front of a video discussing genocide or the abuse or mistreatment of other human beings, but the net effect is that unless you're part of a major news network or late night show, you're penalized for expressing your views on any topic which might be deemed as controversial. That's what I'm referring to, not that TV or movies need to be more political or some shit. Most of them already do a garbage job of saying anything useful or constructive at all, much less do a good job conveying complex ideas and difficult questions in a meaningful way.

@@theroadstopshere I gave up following too many left leaning sources a while back largely because I stopped getting satisfaction from being angry at everything I read, so I would be interested in any examples from that side of the isle you might have of people suffering for their opinions. I agree that chilling political speech with the use of money no matter the side is a problem

@dustinbird9170 I honestly think the misunderstanding here on what you thought I meant and what I was intending is actually a really good example of how much people with differing political worldviews misinterpret and misconstrue what others outside their circle are saying-- your assumption was that I as a self-identified "lefty" must be making a commentary on the state of media as a whole and how I don't think it's political enough, while when I handed my phone to a buddy to ask whether that's what he read into it he said he thought it was pretty clear I was speaking about PS and other small independent creators like him. That's not to say you were somehow less perceptive than my friend, or that I was perfectly clear in my message, but that the way that someone in my friend group with a similar worldview read a pretty general comment was entirely different from how you as a more conservative stranger (nice to meet you, btw) read the same text. Some of that's definitely that my buddy knows me well, but I think the same thing is true of me reading your comment on the video discussing how you feel the Republican party is run vs. the Democrats. I grew up extremely conservative and carried those views into my 20's, but serving in the military and moving a few times and seeing and meeting people of all walks of life changed the way I looked at people and politics. I don't see a number of respectable and memorable names in the R's today, more a couple dozen of reasonable folks who I disagree with on economic and social issues and an unfortunate number of genuinely unhinged dipshits who embarrass themselves for Twitter clips and disgrace Lincoln's name by their association with his party. And unfortunately the dipshits are far more memorable and influential in what the Republican House was and wasn't able to pass than any of the reasonable folks. By contrast, I see a more organized and less childish group in the Dems on average, but one so afraid of losing a vote or making any changes that they utterly fail to do anything to address problems or correct their own mistakes. Plus, they're absolutely awful at picking candidates. Clinton and then Biden? And then Biden again? Good lord, guys, do you have that little faith in any of your other members that those were the best you could front?

@@theroadstopshere Fair enough on the misunderstanding of what you meant to say. And I fully agree with you on your observation of how the DNC runs, it certainly is not disorganized or childish, if I let my bias show, I would say it is run like a very tight mafia, with a handful of loud outsiders who give the boss's headaches. The most impressive thing about Obama was his ability to circumvent that system as well as he did

@@BradsPitts. I’m pretty ignorant ;)

@@NathanHarrisStudio yeah I was curious why it was gone

This is likely true

20,000 lol

I'll come back to this in 4 years and laugh seeing all the literal schizo people freak out over in actual. Nothing Burger like this. Idiots like Trump is literally going to do nothing, nothing ever happens

that would be hilarious. I hope I'm wrong.

@@PhoenicianSailor you were unhinged with the original trump election as well. Nothing is happening

I disavow this statement, technically
