Status: offline 		Curious have you guys been watching some of these videos on Youtube...

I normally watch China in Focus, seem to have good source of information and not trying to cause bad influences to the Western Powers. Since the outbreak, i started watching this source and seem to be accurate, but not 100%.

I know this one runs by the Russia or Communist Parties: Binkov's Battlegrounds, rather funny muppet show. But i dont pay much attention to this one.

Now these two sources i found on Youtube, not really sure: Defense Updates and Convert Cabal, got some interesting videos and wasnt sure if running by the Communist or the CCP itself. Want to stay away from them, they are truly evil regimes! Mostly running by a powerful gang members that has been around before the Korean War. They dont seem to care about their own people, esp the weak ones and want to rule the world like Hitler did. Hard to believe they have gotten a way with it after many people around the world died from that nasty viruses.

Btw i am not trying to cause a uproar of politic powers here, just want to know those sites on youtube are accurate and not to get mix up with the one running by CCP.

Thank you

When he cites the news, he has article on the screen for the audience to see. He takes references from multiple sources, contacts to people involved, and generally tries to make sense of things and explain them in easily to understand manner. He also does interviews on Timcast IRL channel.

I do know that CCP is spreading their influence and misguide to alot of people. All they wanna do is control everything, they arent interesting in our their cultures except their own.

Tim Pool is good stuff. He tries to get to the truth of things.

Tim's YouTube channels are:

Timcast
Timcast IRL (interviews)
SCNR (Tim's hired lackeys, not Tim himself)

He's also on BitChute.

Status: offline 		So are you the one with the Chainsaw?

Or one of the men grilling while in a water filled pool?

Did you install that toilet seat?

Were you the one painting on that step ladder?

Were you on the bottom forklift or the top one?

Why were you riding the motorcycle like that?

Was that you walking in the rain carrying a jacket with a closed umbrella over you head?

Did you really drive off with the gas nozzle still in your vehicle?

I tried out all kinds light mechs, crap weapons, and so on thanks to him. Great fun.

You will be trolled in style by [insert here someone with an agenda] imo.

You need to learn how not to be trolled. Respected journalists, scholars and scientists are a relatively safe bet. Reading US / Russian / Chinese / EU / etc news is *not* a bad idea per se. News should only inform. If you can get respected journalists, scholars and scientists to interpret, analyse for you, that's even better. But youtube is not the right platform for that. Except the first part: getting the *official* raw news.

True, that what i trying to figure out what going on with these misguided videos. For example, Convert Cabal, kept showing ads about War Thunder, my guess they are part of that group. And the other one, showing something about nord, like data security protection and that site probably have something to do with Norway or in that areas.

They are up and down, some interesting videos, but you can get carried away what they are trying to prove or show who is better or worst.

So wasnt sure what videos i should be watching, as for myself as a american i like some good sources that are accurate. I use to watch Discovery and History Channels, but so much have change now and so much stuffs on youtube can get misguided or carried away, like been distracted by something that is not entirely true sources.

This is like Dante's hell: "abandon hope all ye who enter here". Here it would be "abandon good sources that are accurate all ye who enter here". As long as you don't forget this you should be ok imo

YouTube is no different to anywhere else. You get some quality, accurate videos and you get some total dross. But to suggest you can't find quality videos that are worth watching on YouTube is positively ludicrous.

Who are these the.influencer.dude666 or internet.guru87 dealing with hot topics?

No matter what the subject there are mediums that will provide dross and those that will provide quality. Just like looking at documentaries on TV or reading books - its being able to sort the wheat from the chaff that is important.

Number of journalists (respected and otherwise) and some of the others are up on YouTube & competitors (Bitchute and whatever else). Otherwise professionals talk about their work and what effect it has on commerce product. Some hella cool short films too.

Status: offline 		Youtube have alot of videos, some are good and some can be misguided or giving you wrong details. Like what CCP and others been doing over the years and that is really bad, those is what i am trying to stay away from. It like a party of left and right wings, i stuck in the middle. I just want peace and able to relax without being force to do something. Its a crazy world out there, we are killing each others over silly ideas what people cant agreed or work together.

I do find alot of interesting videos on youtube, i like watching Curse of the Oak Island. I have first to sixth seasons and alot of interesting sources out there to learn from. Those ads really can kill while watching those videos. I cant disable it, cause i am using device, like built in dvd player, etc. On PC you probably can, unless you may they money to have those ads removed.

I use Adblock plus (firefox addon) and don't see a single ad on youtube. PC, of course. Bad luck with your device.

NoScript also helps for other sites.
