Who is Tim pool? Serious question

Tim Pool gained attention in... I believe it was 2015... if not then, then early 2016... for traveling around Europe to investigate whether the claims about islamisation of Europe were being exaggerated or not. To me, he seemed more inclined at the beginning to think it was exaggerated. When he got there, you could see him very very slowly getting some red pills. Ever since then, he's been sort of on that path about a wide berth of subjects. He considers himself a citizen journalist and has a very wide following which crosses political lines.

That's when he took a challenge to visit (SWEDEN only) from a conservative- he thought to go and have a local as translator and find the truth in various communities.

He had his eyes opened to the truth hardcore. As did many of his left leaning or moderate viewers at the time.

However, Tim started as a video journalist at Occupy WS way back in the day, has been active in the field through at least 2016, was at Ferguson and much more.

He is pretty much (or was before they turned on him after Sweden and more honest reporting) a legend in the leftist journalism and activist crowds for his honest unfiltered on the ground reporting of big events and protests in the US, and has parlayed that into a set of YT sites and current event commentary and analysis.

Those commenting he may well have been "redpilled and voting Trump" but keeping a public facing image of neutral 'disaffected former Democrat'? They may be right.

But there are some huge hurdles between true leftist values and goals and where T leads- and Tim has a few he still holds to. And a strong sense of being polite and civil that is rubbed raw by Trump's typical NYC personna.
