Dude I’m so sorry I’m destitute & could no longer help fund your work. Was sad to see my name disappear from the Patron list.... but, y’know, .... Capitalism!!! Keep up this wonderful work, and as always that sparkling charm and wit! Ya still got my thumbs (and algorithmic help?)
No worries! The pandemic's been hard on all our pocket books and you have no obligation to support me. Your views and kind words are more than enough 💖
Thank you for addressing the "obssessed with race" line, i feel like too often progressives let that go because it is soooo often repeated but it is such a disingenuous claim, then again i guess the reality is that most of the arguments for banning CRT, and similar acts, are. Great vid, hope everyone has a wonderful day.
I also do think the exploitation and struggle of white workers of the north is underrepresented in school text books and I do have a theory as to why. With the slavery of the south that is a thing of the past so it's something the elites feel safe to talk about. The capitalist exploitation of the north though is still going on and so teaching about the struggles of the people of the gilded age would make them more sympathetic towards socialism and the elite of course don't want that. I'm not trying to say the slavery wasn't a horrible thing, it was. But sometimes I suspect the massive focus on it is to draw attention away from the hyper capitalism of the time and just how bad it was for 99% of people.
Wouldn't you just serve whoever comes to the counter first? Or the first through the doorway? I've never seen strangers both walk through the door together and both walk up to the counter at the same time. People walk around, take time to consider what they will order, etc. The example PragerU uses just doesn't work.
For every Patron this video brings in I'll force myself to watch another James Lindsay video: www.patreon.com/PileyBenton
Keep up the great work! I love these breakdowns.
While a I love most stuff you do this is probably my favorite series/type of videos you do. Thanks for making great political content!
Thanks! I worry sometimes the content is too light or too catty so I'm happy to hear you enjoy it
Great video, also love the editing room/dart room transitions.
Thanks! Had some fun with that in editing but spinning around 30 times was dizzying to film.
Great vid, but shoulda gone with the first one. It was clearly an omen, and by not chosing it you will have undoubtedly angered the gods.
Funny enough it was the exact same number; no joke, the accidental first throw was what my actual throw was. So really it was meant to be.

Happy to give you some ammo against that argument, because it's super frustrating for me to see all over the place

It's premised on the very odd scenario that both customers are complete assholes and demand service at the exact same time.
One minute into the PragerU video and you need 12 minutes to explain it. Hah
Unfortunately a lotta backstory to unpack lmao
