I was connected to Kim Iverson and Craig "Pasta" Jardula (Of The Covo Couch in LA) peripherally when I had my own You Tube Channel.

Connection was by lose association through (Roar Media in Portland)  They both mentioned my name on their shows when their followers were in the hundreds.  I doubt either would remember me.  Since I stopped my news channel they have both done well.  Kim scored the anchor job at the hill and later got pissed and walked off when they would not let her near Anthony Fauci when 'The Hill' had him on.

Craig represents libertarianism as does the Convo Couch and Roar Media.  They hide this under the progressive title.

I think a Marxist (not to be confused with woke or Identity Marxism), perspective is more consistent with managing and living with resource depletion in a world going to shit.  * A Marxist perspective applied to the analysis of current economic conditions that allows responsible and humane consumption and production of that which we need.

As COVID raged I realized many people I took to have brains came up far short.  Their reactions to the crisis betrayed them.  I also realized my news channel with 200 viewers  a week was 10 times smaller than a channel with 2000 viewers.  Or 1000 times smaller than the number of people who have already seen this Jimmy Dore video.

Which at the end of the day, even with 1000 times more views is no more than dust in the wind.  The needle does not move, Google still owns you, and you are working your ass off.

Ten times bigger than Jimmy Dore is Russel Brand. 

Then you finally get big enough to be a threat.
