So We're All Just Going to Go Along, Huh?

As someone who is fiercely anti-duopoly and anti-corporate-media, I am able to disconnect from the emotion of wanting someone to win and analyze the behavior from a neutral perspective. I want BOTH parties to lose, even though one will inevitably win. ALL of the federally elected officials in Congress, the President & the VP - up to and including the pe…

Yesterday, Jill Stein’s campaign for President announced that pseudo-celebrity podcasters and YouTube hosts Kyle Kulinski and his wife Krystal Ball are “endorsing” the potential Green Party Presidential nominee - and lots of people are getting excited. Apologies to their fans and sycophants, but I’m going to throw a deluge of water on that excitement, c…

Rumble Video, Good And Bad: A Comprehensive Analysis | Are They Overinflating their View Counts?

Let’s talk about Rumble, the video platform. As someone who’s been amplifying & creating anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist independent media the past few years, I’ve seen YouTube censor plenty of creators. Channels and people I watch have been demonetized, others temporarily suspended for “TOS violations” that are never clear, a few were outright kicked …
