[Technology] Who is your favourite utube "talking head"?

looney said:

IMO utube and its algorithm is beginning to function like the pop charts of the 60s etc turning some into stars, there is probably about 30 or 40 bubbling under with a few appearing on the MSM.

My favs at the moment are.

1 Jordan Peterson
2 Stefan Molyneux
3 Thomas Sowell
4 Joe Rogan
5 Ben Shapirro

I could mention a few more, Below is a long talk by Stefan Molyneux comparing the west to Ancient Rome, as someone who has a Masters in History he knows his stuff. Its long but interesting.

On Stefan Molyneux:

“According to Steven Hassan, a mental health counselor with experience on cults, "Partly what's going on with the people on the Internet who are indoctrinated, they spend lots of hours on the computer. Videos can have them up all night for several nights in a row. Molyneux knows how to talk like he knows what he's talking about, despite very little academic research. He cites this and cites that, and presents it as the whole truth. It dismantles people's sense of self and replaces it with his sense of confidence about how to fix the world."”

Oh I found your source for all that, Ancaps, they are further along the batshit crazy spectrum than Icke or Alex Jones. Steven Hassan is an ex moonie who seems to think objecting to Taxation is equivellent to breaking up families because if the parents are paying tax then they are indoctrinating their children who need saving from this statist brain washing. As I said batshit crazy.

I watch him on occaision, the last time was on the Joe Rogan Experiance and Joe was trying to reign him in and hold him accountable for some of the things he was saying on the show, but he is entertaining and the world needs people who will speak out.
