I am really curious if anyone's mind is ever changed by a video like this.

It's not exactly hard to see Pim Tool is one of the dumbest people alive today and that he doesn't deserve your time of day. I really don't think there's very many people that fail that check.

You either care that he is an immoral sack of shit, or you overlook it because he is on your side of the aisle and is spouting more or less the right catch phrases so that I can overlook the clear garbage.

That's how I feel people must be thinking. I can't have so little faith in humanity to think that a large portion of us is so guileless and clueless to think he is smart or genuine.

My guess is no. And I suspect the Showdy isn't trying to change minds, I think their intended audience is left-ish leaning people who have some awareness that Tim Pool is a dipshit but don't know all the details. It's a deep dive on a deeply unserious internet personality for the purpose of comedy and entertainment, aimed at people who already broadly agree with the conclusion.

Yea, that is what the Showdy tends to be.

I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.
