Fucking hell.

He gets that just for talking?

Am I missing something here?

Apparently we all miss the massive market opportunity of selling gold to old people, after capturing their attention with conservative antics on youtube.

Once again, I'm left thinking about the Golgafrinchans.

I'm imagining Crowder's response, should anybody alert him to the underlying self-serving nonsense his subconscious is using to puppeteer him. I bet he would find it totally insufferable that anybody could dare tell him why he thinks and feels as he does.

As the great Jordan Peterson states, we are not experts about ourselves, and our underlying motivations for our thoughts and feels. Far, far from it.

That's probably why people react so strongly when confronted with clear examinations of their own subconscious motivations. Nothing stings like a scary and unutterable truth.

Speaking of scary and unutterable truths.

Never heard of him. LOL (but I dont think I have hear of the Daily Wire either). But I guess I am not their "demographic"

I haven't followed this story much at all.

It just makes me think of a couple of 6-year-olds having a spat on the playground, with each one saying "You started it!"

@George-K Me neither and I can’t get myself to watch any of these videos.

[Horace]

Thank you for the courtesy of letting me know that your lack of contributions to the thread are due to disinterest, rather than a lack of time, or distractions. I had been wondering.

[jon-nyc]

I have some passing interest, like when you drive by an active accident scene, but not quite enough to watch first person videos from the principals involved.

I've watched, perhaps, two of Crowder's shows. The thing that really impressed me, and not in a good way, is that he was in the studio, sitting behind a mic, wearing a shoulder holster.

If there's such a thing as "losing all your credibility in one moment," that was it as far as I was concerned.

Thank you again. That will allow me to more accurately track your interest level in this subject. Actually the last video I posted was a synopsis by a psychologist YouTuber I follow. He gives hot takes on all things pop culture.

If you do watch the video, I have a questionnaire for you to fill out regarding your engagement level with it. I would like to set you up with some biometric equipment which measure heart rate, eye blinks, respiration, and posture. This will be invaluable data for me and my team as we continue to study your interest level in various threads.
