Dude, having a YouTube channel where you peddle wacky conspiracy theories does not make you an “investigative journalist.”
After 2/14/18, you posted a YouTube piece of “‘breaking news” in which you made the outrageous claim that the students from Parkland, Florida were just props and coached/funded by the Democrats who were in cahoots with the mainstream media. Was it sour grapes on your part to discredit them because you were denied a lucrative bid to manage social media feeds covering the march? Hmmm? The students were assisted and funded by independent grassroots groups who seek to reform America’s bizzaro gun laws and know how to organize logistics necessary for a national march on Washington. The high schoolers were deliberate in their message that gun control reform was a non-partisan issue. They got lots of airtime on cable/network news programs to promote their cause because the shooting and their response to it was… NEWS! Your claims were insulting and ill-informed.
I think it is admirable that you were a politically active college student. I too was saddened that Hillary bullied her way onto the Democratic ticket as presidential nominee. I fully supported Bernie’s platform. I never thought of Hillary as anything but a shady, shifty career politician. I was only sorry she lost because it meant Trump got the Oval. We had shitty choices in 2016.
You guys out there on social media who slam the Democrats with impunity are doing nothing to unseat a vulgar, dishonorable, half-witted, crackpot president or upend a corrupt GOP. You divide the party with your wacky conspiracies which is exactly what Mitch McConnell and his wealthy conservative donors want.
Either offer credible, verifiable facts and strategies that support the activism needed to heal, unite and rebuild the Democratic Party or shove off. So many of you self-appointed Progressive bloggers & vloggers have no credentials or credibility. Mostly, you just sound as kooky as those far right wing nuts who wear the letter “Q” on their hoodies or host conservative radio shows spreading dangerous falsehoods. Knock it off.
…or prove me wrong. Make something of yourself and check back with me in a few years and I will SING YOUR PRAISES! Meanwhile, I’m not buying into your frothy hokum.
P.S. Leveraging your minor celebrity among your faithful followers to panhandle a “GO FUND ME” campaign to help pay your rent is a bold move worthy of charlatans 3x you age. Your FB/YT followers are welcome to spend their money as they see fit but it really cuts into your credibility factor. I’d suggest to you get a job like the rest of us and do the heavy lifting required to keep corrupt politicians like Hillary accountable, thugs like Trump away from power and the free press accountable. It’s called responsible civic, mature activism. Put down the megaphone and get to work.
