I know some here strongly dislike Tim Pool and his wishy washy fence sitting, back and forth. However, as someone who watches Tim on a regular basis, despite disagreeing with him on most policy issues, though agreeing on other things, it is important to understand how he operates.

Tim is an excellent red piller. He starts left of center, pushes right. After a nice long push, he puts it in reverse, and starts over. He does not remain on the right because if he did, he would no longer pick up stragglers or convince moderates... he would instead seem partisan. Think of it like a bulldozer moving dirt. Excess dirt spills off the blade to either side... you need to go back and get that. Tim does this not only within a single video [fence sitting], but over the course of weeks... push, push, push, reverse.... push, push, push.

Tim also tries to assume no conspiracy is ever at play, though clearly he must think something is up some of the time. Again, this is to appeal to those who fancy themselves grounded in mainstream news. He is retaining his place in the middle.

This doesn't mean he is perfect. He gets policy wrong all the time in my opinion, and I certainly find it frustrating he won't connect dots that are obviously connected.

I am not trying to convince anyone here they should start listening to him. Just remember, if you are here, you are already here. Someone needs to speak to the people who aren't here yet, and Tim Pool is one of the best at that. Just because you may dislike him fencesitting doesn't mean his tactics don't work.

I wrote this up because he sort of explains this here: https://youtu.be/03NKWetXM2M Sometimes "You need to walk people there slowly"
