can you edit the post link to not have the ?si=xxxxxxxxxxx part? its a tracking link
Done! Usually better about catching that
On Firefox, if you right-click the link in the address bar, there should be an option that says “Copy without site tracking”, very useful for Youtube links
That’s neat, Firefox stays winning
There’s also the ClearURLs extension for Firefox that will clear them automatically for you for a bunch of sites like YouTube, Twitter, Google, and a bunch of others.

Every interview should start with taking a best friend shower together.
Was just about to post this. Weird sensation having a huge pit in my stomach with a smile on my face.
They have a great ability to report on some pretty fucked up stuff in a way that is still somehow fun without detracting from the seriousness
Haven’t ventured into the second most recent video though because I don’t know if there’s a way for me to even slightly enjoy knowing more about how anti-homeless people freaks think
It is kind of a rough watch. The guy they watch rides along with some tpusa guy.
it was fucking awful, i skipped all the fascist speaking parts, but it was still real rough
their second most recent video covers Tyler Oliviera, the guy who “investigates” cities by harrasing homeless people and drug users. it’s truly some of the most vile behavior i’ve seen from a YouTuber
My reaction was “oh no the cheese ball guy?”
I made the mistake of reading the comments over in r/videos. 🤮
I did too but noped out pretty quickly. It’s shitty because it does seem like there’s genuinely good people over there, but conversations there tend to get derailed and so wrapped up in liberal talking points, you can see the brain rot forming in real time.
I’m feeling a kind of way about it right now. I used to spend a lot of time on Reddit, and I’d usually form an opinion on something by reading a lot of the comments and trying to synthesize my own opinion by creating an amalgamation of it all. I feel like this must have worked to some degree because I actually started my radicalization over there. I’m not sure if Reddit became worse over time, but now I can barely stand it there. Maybe I’ve just gotten better at parsing bullshit and realized just how much of it there actually is, idk.
But I guess I feel two ways about it because if I got radicalized over there, then perhaps others can too. I personally don’t have the patience to wade through the bullshit anymore, but I also kinda hope people keep fighting the good fight over there.
I feel ya. I’m honestly not sure how organic any of it is anymore is the issue and I just wouldn’t want to spend time trying to radicalize bots. It’s why we need a LeninGPT.
I can’t do it anymore.
