I like Tim and appreciate his "staying neutral" and all, and this is as much in jest as in seriousness at how someone can daily observe the leftist mayhem in detail and still pretend there's any choice but Le Drumpf
He does. He’s trying to delay getting axed from YouTube. I got really aggravated at him for awhile, but he’s doing a lot of good work reaching those on the center and center left.
You kind of have to say you’re not a Trump supporter if you want to even be heard by leftists that you might be able to red pill or discuss something with. I’m independent, but I can’t see myself not voting for Trump again. I still tell everyone here in my hyper liberal area that I’m not a Trump supporter or a conservative when pressed. And in very vague senses that is true, because I’m independent and not a fangirl for Trump or anything. I don’t agree with him on plenty of things and I would have no problem voting against Trump if I thought it was a good idea. It’s just not. And I can’t fathom anything coming from any other party that would possibly change that. They just doubled down on their bullshit since 2016.
Aside from being burnt to the ground if I said otherwise here in the Bay, anything you say or do is instantly discounted by leftist types if they think there’s even a chance you’d consider not voting for their preferred political candidate. You’re also instantly fired for ‘hate speech’ or ‘making a hostile workplace’ because you would suggest or indicate you didn’t like their political sports team.
Even the things I’d disagree with Trump on are what I’d consider fringe issues that don’t much matter, which seems to be entirely what the left concerns itself with. Floyd’s death was wrong, but we’re still talking about something that happened to 10 people in 2019, which is a pretty impressive margin of error for the police, and most of those cases were only considered unarmed on the part of the black person because they were trying to drive a car into the police officer and things like that, making the ‘oopsies’ on the part of the cops even less.
Even Floyd was a convicted felon in and out of prison for most of his life that robbed a pregnant woman at gunpoint for drug money and died methed up with something else in his system too. Arrest the officer and throw the book at him, but more than anything I don’t really care or consider any of this worthy of public concern right now at the scale it’s gotten, and am almost offended that I even have to think about this stuff right now. BLM got themselves a public audience at the cost of many lives and likely billions in damages to property and revenue over time, and their list of demands included giving them the keys to the government, and reparations. More than being hated, they should be ignored like you might ignore a child when it says something stupid. I’m sure they got millions of dollars in donations, and rather than thoughtful solutions to their stated problems, that amounted to them asking for the keys to the nation and more money.
I agree with what you. I’ve been enjoying listening to him which I just started to recently. I really like getting his perspective in addition to my conservative media. He is very substantive which is hard to find for some opposing views.
I see him making the jump to the Blaze soon. He was on crowder the other day and said he is leaning Trump. And now he getting a free gun. He is on our side.
He does, if he reads this, I hope he would tone down the civil war stuff. It is clearly ridiculous and a lot of people are going to throw it back at him to discredit him.
I've watched him for years, he's done the civil war thing in past too.
He also seems to think he is ahead of the curve on issues, perhaps compared to many on the blinkered left but not compared to people that pay attention.
I have been noticing over the past several weeks that every single time you make a comment, i completely agree with you. Are you me? You are arent you. Like some kinda minty tendie or sumtin. A refreshing after-dinner tendie.
Thanks! I was active on T_D for years and supported Trump since the primaries...Tim's constant shout-outs to TheDonald.win reminded me to take a harder look. I did again and never left.
But I get it, if he's able to reach a little farther left, than I'm all for his continued charade. Make no mistake, he'll make the right decision in the booth.
For me to get my lefty radical friends to even watch something it has to come from their propaganda machine because that's all they believe. They are ridiculously LAZY that's why they are uninformed yet claim to know more than everyone else. Tim playing middle ground is the most effective way to redpill these people.
The sad part is that Tim simply saying he is looking at both sides is more than enough to label him a Trump supporting ~insert long list of phobias isms and ists~ traitor to the cause for the hard core left. Why they haven't openly attacked him yet probably has more to do with his audience is mainly centrist and if the left openly attacks him it will drive them right into Trumps camp. They won't willingly do that until Tim openly supports Trump.
His audience isn't leftists. That's why we get the Tim that we do. Watching Tim gives us some sense of superiority, or probably just extinguishes the gaslight. I can't blame Tim, but it would be silly to be blind to it all.
Adam has some good opinions. He rarely gets to express them without Tim immediately jumping in to say “no, that’s not it” and contradict him, but he’s interesting nonetheless.
I wonder if this is it. He has had people stalk his house and recently Crowder helped him buy his first firearm. He also makes a point on how these groups threaten Independent Journalists.
I suspect closer to the election he has a mea culpa and says he will vote or voted for Trump. As long as he keeps giving his show as it is, I’m cool with giving him the views.
He did NOT say he was voting for Trump. Don’t come here posting fake news. He said he definitely isn’t voting democrat, but he stopped well short of saying Trump gets his vote.
My speculation has been that - whoever the Dems actually pick as their nominee - the VP will be either Gabbard or Yang. Moderate-left people like Tim seem to love those two, even though they have a lot of the same positions as the crazier Dems. If that happens, I guarantee you’d see Tim make a video along the lines of:
“Yeah, the Dems are crazy and their candidate sucks, but I think Yang/Gabbard will be a moderating influence, so I’m voting Democrat. Also, I’m mixed race and grew up on the south side of Chicago. Skateboarding.”
I don't care who he votes for. His reporting creates Trump voters. He gets a bad rap here because he tries to remain neutral. He is hated by the left, why do so many hate him here too?
Everybody bitches about bias in the media, but turns around and bitches about a lack of bias in Tim Poole. Clearly, those people want media only biased for them.
He has a habit is saying his opinion then adding in that he's not sure who to vote for. I think he's full Trump but if he goes full Trump he would lose lefties and be purged from YouTube. So he tries to pretend he's on the fence when he's already made a decision.
He's spent 3+ years building a business and YouTube could kill him with a single button click.
I don't think he's unique enough to be in The Blaze. He basically reads objective news and talks about how stupid leftists are and then says he's unsure who to vote for.
Believe Dave Rubin is in The Blaze. He has a following, I'm sure The Blaze would appreciate his numbers. Or he could go on his own. Joining The Blaze might scare the leftists.
I'd stop watching anyone on Glen Beck's network. I watched on multiple networks and noticed how he is a complete shill that says whatever will get him money and views. He would switch back to liberal in a heartbeat for money.
The man just took the plunge and became a gun owner. He's DEFINITELY worried about his life and safety. But honestly, as long as he's willing to look at "Both Sides," he'll see Insanity and Destruction on one, and Stability and Creation on the other.
I live a few blocks from a place that's been damaged in small-scale rioting. Today there's a Protest going on. Going on right now, in fact. Some of my (ignorant but well meaning) co-workers are there. Four hours from now the sun goes down. At that point, we men will be armed and ready. Hopefully my Walmart goes another week without being looted/burned. I'm right sick of this shit, man. I am not afraid of guns. I am not against guns. I think guns are pretty cool, honestly, from a mechanics, physics, and chemistry perspective. But I fucking HATE that I am now FORCED to keep one handy. I live in the United States of America- I'm a fucking CITIZEN. I should NOT be facing the possibility of having to actually defend my home not because the nation is under siege, not because the enemy has broken through our borders, not because I woke up in Fallout, somehow. But because the fucking COMMUNISTS in the Government are just ALLOWING VIOLENT ANARCHY to spread like a fucking forest fire.
Anyone breaks down my door tonight, they die. Plain and simple. Any home invaders will not be met by pepper spray or mace or a baseball bat or even by my dog, she'll be safely away in an upstairs room. They'll be met by rounds traveling at lethal velocity. Any blood shed by Americans defending themselves is on the Governors who will not enforce the law.
The competence to own and operate the means of deadly violence to defend your life is simply a basic human responsibility, which you would have regardless of your country of residence or the current political situation.
It's intentional. It's the same tactic I have to use at work or in class (college/grad school). I respect it, as it's the only way to reach a particular audience. Not to mention, Tim has made it increasingly clear, especially the past few days, that he will most likely vote Trump.
His content is about 99% everything you'd find on this sub, and about 1% "I'm leaning towards Trump but, we'll see how things play out," and "I'm a center left milquetoast fence-sitter." I'm more than ok with that, especially as it allows him to reach people that figures like Tucker, Levin, Crowder, etc, could never reach and would be immediately dismissed as biased. It's intentional framing, and I have to use it all the time in certain situations, and it's effective
Exactly. Tim is the sane-liberal this country needs again. I watch every one of his videos and I respect him and value his opinion. He's honest and I appreciate that.
Him being a leftist and stating "I'm still looking at both sides." to his followers so they don't leave doesn't bother me as long as he's slinging those red pills Johnny Appleseed-style.
In quite sure he’s not claiming to still be looking at both sides. There is a 0% chance he will vote for Biden. He’s either voting for trump or not voting at all and it’s a coin toss between the two
It shocks me the amount of people who would prefer no voice at all to the one that dispenses red pills to an audience who would otherwise never hear or consider such ideas.
I would guess that this guy has done more to wake people up than any rando throwing shade by calling him a phony (anonymously, online) has.
I don't see that as any different than putting a BLM sign in your business window to try to avoid having a brick thrown through it. Survival tactics don't make you a bad person.
As someone in a blue state surrounded by the left on all sides I can appreciate Tim's public stance.
Gotta pay the bills man... It's not really his fault that he was brainwashed like half of the country... The important thing is that he's starting to wake up, but is now staring down the possibility of losing his main source of income... Which is no fun if you have a family to support, or just yourself
Tim's made no secret that he plants his flag in the center left in the empty field where the Democrat party only a few years ago used to be. This serves to highlight just how far and insane the blue supremacists are today.
Elaborating more on his show, he's shifted independent. He's not tribal left or right. He's asking both parties "what are you going to offer me?" He's negotiating for his issues. Not playing the tribal game. I respect that.
He want's to mainly grow his channel, but one good development he has done is he bought a gun and is now realizing how hard it is to get one in his state.
Can confirm: Am one of those that got red pilled because of Tim Pool.
I don't get the hate he gets on here sometimes. I was first introduced to him on Joe Rogan last year when they were talking about Twitter and social media bias against conservatives. Then I started watching his channels last summer as I got slowly frustrated with cancel culture and the puritanism of the Left. He got me into watching The Daily Wire guys and then Stephen Crowder (who's my favorite now). I stared entertaining the idea of possibly voting for Trump earlier this year after continuing to see the insanity of the Left. It wasn't until the pandemic I was like, eff it, I'm voting Trump.
Honestly, I never thought I'd be here on this forum today. After Clinton lost in 2016, I was legit down for a week (WTF?!). I even wrote on Facebook this emotional post how I'll never stop fighting for #BlackLivesMatter, how I'll always support LGBT and women's rights, how I'll fight for gun control, all the BS Leftist stuff you hear today. No joke. I CRINGE at the stuff I used to say and believe. I feel like a whole new person now and it feels great. Even though I have to hide my true feelings because I'm in a massive woke city in the entertainment industry (music).
So don't hate on Tim. He may sound a little loony and this meme is hilariously true, but he's red pilling folks like me. I'd be surprised if he doesn't end up voting for Trump.
MAGA is a wide net of very diverse people who just love the US and/or aren't flat out brainwashed NPC's. I'm a lefty like Tim who believes in universal healthcare but I also love my country and don't like watching it burn nor do I like open borders, etc...
So yea, Tim's ganna get some haters in here but we have more in common with everyone here (love of country) than the people who strait up hate our country and believe we should submit to global orgs and kneel to people depending on their race as recent events have shown us.
True. It is an online forum with thousands and thousands of different views. However, I can only voice my opinion and say that Tim Pool is probably helping A LOT in getting more and more members joining this forum and supporting Trump.
*edit- and who knows... it might even help us hating on tim here. Because if we hate him... the left would think he's good. If we love him, the left will believe he's evil. I guess things are pretty easy when your enemy is fucking retarded.
Exactly this. The dude is MAGA AF, you can tell from how passionate he gets talking about the ridiculous shit occurring with the left. I mean, those people are literally proposing to abolish the fucking police. It's beyond laughable at this point. He can't say that though or else he'll incur the wrath of the mob and will be de-platformed. He doesn't want a target on his back.
Same here my left wing coworkers we're wearing Hillary baseball caps in the office and they would crack jokes about Trump and asked me who I was voting for so I would just say "i'm apolitical"
I’ll bet the same is true of Stephen L. Miller (not the Trump adviser, the other Stephen Miller, aka. @redsteeze on Twitter).
He clearly isn’t a Trump fan and he insults him a fair bit, but Miller is so disillusioned with the fake news media, that he’s likely dishing out red pills to his followers with the way he exposes the MSM all day long. And while he’ll never admit to it, it wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up voting Trump out of sheer hatred for the other side.
If you don’t follow him already, I HIGHLY recommend it. Even though he’s anti-Trump, he is absolutely fantastic on Twitter. He thoroughly and meticulously tears the ever-loving shit out of MSM journos all day long. He does a better job of it than just about anyone I’ve ever seen, and he does it all with really dry, sarcastic sense of humor. He’s one of the absolute best people to follow on Twitter.
Hey Tim. If you read this. I've been watching you for probably 2 years now. I found you after I found Styx. I've been maga since Bernie got fucked over in 2016. Somehow I was a Bernie bro.. I'm ashamed. Even travelled 5 hours to watch him speak in Seattle in 2015. Love what you do. I swear the redpoll is right on your tongue ready to swallow.
His views aren’t your own, he turned me into a trump supporter last year after antifa flooded a building. Before that, I hadn’t heard anything negative about them, but experiencing them on my own was a social nightmare
Word.... I was being a bit tongue in cheek, I think he's definitely a supporter but is afraid of getting the banhammer from YT if he goes full Trump. Personally his style is a bit too much for me, he makes everything seem like the biggest deal in the world when that's rarely the case. Most journalists do that however, including the good ones. They need those clicks.
He has admitted to doing that on purpose. He admits to doing clickbait, fear porn etc with thumbnails and titles because that's the only way he gets traffic on YouTube. At least he's honest.
He plays the same game as the msm, but does it well enough to make a good living as an independent commentator, while dishing out subtle redpills. If you need to argue against a brainwashed "conservative media is lying" cuck, sending them the "liberal" Tim Pool is always great fun.
I prefer my journalists to try and stride the neutral honestly. And Tim does that in spades. Im not expecting him to lurch right or anything. But he is up front enough, and talks about actual happenings.
Hed be a fine journalist in most any time. And hes a million tines better than the majority of others. Also why i dont mind seeing him pop here. Other opinions are great sharpeners.
To a certain extent, I think he is remaining 'undecided' to appeal to a larger audience. If he came out and supported Trump he'd instantly lose a lot of viewers (the left doesn't want to hear any narrative but their own) and his messages wouldn't be as effective.
He knows damn well he's voting for Trump, but by playing the undecided card, he reaches people that otherwise wouldn't listen to him, thus increasing his ability to spread that redpill.
I agree lots of people are missing this. Him being neutral is better for the fight in the long run. If he comes out for trump his message will be way less effective and he will be no longer able to reach those on the fence leftys. If you have a lefty friend who's questioning their ideas it's way easier to get them to watch a Tim Pool clip than a Tucker Carlson clip. Trust me this has been effective at times in my inner circles. He gets lots of unjustified hate here.
OP said this is partly in jest. I think we like Tim more than we dislike him. Some will demand fealty, but they're not a majority because, we're not the radical left
IMO, Tim is bringing more people to TRUMP than just about anyone on Youtube. Fence sitters (or undecided) are the EXACT audience that needs to be courted. This is why I turn Fence sitters onto Tim as a way to 1st get them engaged and then vote Trump
Not gonna lie, it would sort of ruin it for me if he went full Trump supporter. I can watch Hannity for something like that, while Tim interprets the daily news through the lens of a centrist or moderate type and that's cool with me. I like to think other centrists see things his way and while he might say he's not voting Trump, he definitely isn't voting Democrat, and I'll take that as a W.
You guys are underestimating how useful Tim Pool is for infiltrating leftist sites like Youtube with airdrop red pills bombardments every day. His videos have a large viewing base even for someone with his sub size.
By not openly declaring a war on George Soros and the Commies and hocking a battle rifle on air, hes infiltrated under the radar. He will declare MAGA at the last moment and go out guns blazing on Nov. 2
Fence sitters en masse are literally buying guns as we speak. Trump is doing just fine. He's projecting strength in a time where good but weak people are being run over by the thought police (Brees a good high profile example)
All normies who don't want to live in a fascist leftist utopia are running as fast as they can towards Trump
People exactly like Tim. Leading off a conversation with a lefty with some variation of "I hate Trump, but" is the only way they don't immediately dismiss your argument.
Well his friend Adam who is on all the time now speaks the truth and says it like it is. He's 100% voting Trump and is 100% against the BLM and evil democrats. He's a cool dude.
Tim is a journalist, one of the last ones. I actually appreciate him not making a statement on who he will vote for, considering that's what ruined journalism to begin with.
Tim is mass red pill dealer that doesn't take his own supply. He's turned way more people to Trump than I think most pro-Trump conservative commentators ever have with his centrist shtick, in the same way that Dave Ruben kept stubbornly clinging to the title of liberal. That's why I think the hate for him is a bit much.
Lol his schtick is played. Pick a side. I don’t even care which one but stop with this nonsense of talking about the lunacy of the left but going back and forth on POTUS. If you vote Democrat at this point you are truly lost. These people are insane.
He says that he isn't voting for Trump while making the argument that Trump is the only real choice. Honestly, if that gets more people to listen to reason, then more power to him.
YES! Tim Pool rocks, he's great for us because he shits on the dems but does it in a way that opens the eyes of the less extreme lefties. We all know he's voting for Trump, he just doesn't want to be on record saying it this soon.
I don't think he deserves the attention he gets. He's not that smart. He has hot takes he gets off twitter and reads the same shit we all do. He's you're average guy who doesn't want to get called out for being right wing.
To be fair, I can’t remember the things I read. I can read fine but nothing sticks. Going through the news and hearing opinions about it paints a solid picture of where the lines are, why they’re there and what I can further take from it,
Every time Tim Pool talks about 'social engineering', he is letting us know exactly what he is doing. The guy is clearly a master of persuasion and builds a career off it. He is fully redpilled, no doubt about it. Just let him do what he does best. I watch nearly all of his vids... I don't agree with him on every issue but if you track his opinion on various things it's clear he has a decent handle on many issues, and is an expert on media malfeasance.
I like Tim and appreciate his "staying neutral" and all, and this is as much in jest as in seriousness at how someone can daily observe the leftist mayhem in detail and still pretend there's any choice but Le Drumpf
This is the answer. Although I don't think he's a phony. He has opinions he doesn't share, but he makes an effort to try and hear both sides
He 100% lurks here, hes admitted as much. So I think hes going to love this meme.
He does. He’s trying to delay getting axed from YouTube. I got really aggravated at him for awhile, but he’s doing a lot of good work reaching those on the center and center left.
You kind of have to say you’re not a Trump supporter if you want to even be heard by leftists that you might be able to red pill or discuss something with. I’m independent, but I can’t see myself not voting for Trump again. I still tell everyone here in my hyper liberal area that I’m not a Trump supporter or a conservative when pressed. And in very vague senses that is true, because I’m independent and not a fangirl for Trump or anything.

I agree with what you. I’ve been enjoying listening to him which I just started to recently. I really like getting his perspective in addition to my conservative media. He is very substantive which is hard to find for some opposing views.
^This. BS he isn’t voting trump. The liberalism of his friends are but him being to the right of them is not going to. He’s lying for good reasons.
I see him making the jump to the Blaze soon. He was on crowder the other day and said he is leaning Trump. And now he getting a free gun. He is on our side.
Yep ....
He does, if he reads this, I hope he would tone down the civil war stuff. It is clearly ridiculous and a lot of people are going to throw it back at him to discredit him.
I've watched him for years, he's done the civil war thing in past too.
He also seems to think he is ahead of the curve on issues, perhaps compared to many on the blinkered left but not compared to people that pay attention.
I have been noticing over the past several weeks that every single time you make a comment, i completely agree with you. Are you me? You are arent you. Like some kinda minty tendie or sumtin. A refreshing after-dinner tendie.
He's the reason I'm here. He shouts us out all the time. He's great.
I would not have found this site if it were not for TimCast.
Glad you are here
Thanks! I was active on T_D for years and supported Trump since the primaries...Tim's constant shout-outs to TheDonald.win reminded me to take a harder look. I did again and never left.
The fence sitting annoys me.
But I get it, if he's able to reach a little farther left, than I'm all for his continued charade. Make no mistake, he'll make the right decision in the booth.
For me to get my lefty radical friends to even watch something it has to come from their propaganda machine because that's all they believe. They are ridiculously LAZY that's why they are uninformed yet claim to know more than everyone else. Tim playing middle ground is the most effective way to redpill these people.
The sad part is that Tim simply saying he is looking at both sides is more than enough to label him a Trump supporting ~insert long list of phobias isms and ists~ traitor to the cause for the hard core left. Why they haven't openly attacked him yet probably has more to do with his audience is mainly centrist and if the left openly attacks him it will drive them right into Trumps camp. They won't willingly do that until Tim openly supports Trump.
His audience isn't leftists. That's why we get the Tim that we do. Watching Tim gives us some sense of superiority, or probably just extinguishes the gaslight. I can't blame Tim, but it would be silly to be blind to it all.
You nailed it. His audience is us and people like us, regular folks that see what the Democrats now are and what the left now stand for.
He does lurk here, said so himself. Research
Adam - Tim’s cohost on the Timcast IRL podcast - has said he’ll be voting for Trump, so even some of Tim’s lefty friends are jumping ship.
Soy Jesus
At first I thought Adam sucked and wasn’t a good partner for Tim. Now I love him, want to hear his take and is an amazing partner for him.
Adam has some good opinions. He rarely gets to express them without Tim immediately jumping in to say “no, that’s not it” and contradict him, but he’s interesting nonetheless.
I wonder if this is it. He has had people stalk his house and recently Crowder helped him buy his first firearm. He also makes a point on how these groups threaten Independent Journalists.
I suspect closer to the election he has a mea culpa and says he will vote or voted for Trump. As long as he keeps giving his show as it is, I’m cool with giving him the views.
He is already voting for Trump, he made his mind up long ago. He just claims he is on the fence to avoid getting smeared as a Trump supporter.
He will never go full MAGA, but when he does vote Trump he will claim it was a vote against the Democrat's and their lunacy.
He just got a gun, thanks to Crowder.
He literally said he's voting Trump in that interview.
Spez: He said leaning Trump, but definitely no Democrat at any level. Good enough for me.
He did NOT say he was voting for Trump. Don’t come here posting fake news. He said he definitely isn’t voting democrat, but he stopped well short of saying Trump gets his vote.
You're right he said leaning Trump, but no Dems for sure. I went back and rewatched.
Still, a vote taken away from Dems is one vote gained for Trump.
Yeah lets see if that holds true when the leftards swap in their miracle surprise candidate.
I really hope he's just waiting till October to drop his little surprise on his fans.
My speculation has been that - whoever the Dems actually pick as their nominee - the VP will be either Gabbard or Yang. Moderate-left people like Tim seem to love those two, even though they have a lot of the same positions as the crazier Dems. If that happens, I guarantee you’d see Tim make a video along the lines of:

Go private. I'm sure Blaze would take him.
I don't think he's unique enough to be in The Blaze. He basically reads objective news and talks about how stupid leftists are and then says he's unsure who to vote for.
Believe Dave Rubin is in The Blaze. He has a following, I'm sure The Blaze would appreciate his numbers. Or he could go on his own. Joining The Blaze might scare the leftists.
I'd stop watching anyone on Glen Beck's network. I watched on multiple networks and noticed how he is a complete shill that says whatever will get him money and views. He would switch back to liberal in a heartbeat for money.
Also hate his crying ass. So annoying.
Why would he cuck to crazy Mormon cheeto dude?
Cheeto dude is Beck, but I don't know about being a Mormon.
Glenn Beck is a hundred times more based than Pool, I promise you. And I don't dislike Pool.
The man just took the plunge and became a gun owner. He's DEFINITELY worried about his life and safety. But honestly, as long as he's willing to look at "Both Sides," he'll see Insanity and Destruction on one, and Stability and Creation on the other.
I live a few blocks from a place that's been damaged in small-scale rioting. Today there's a Protest going on. Going on right now, in fact. Some of my (ignorant but well meaning) co-workers are there. Four hours from now the sun goes down. At that point, we men will be armed and ready. Hopefully my Walmart goes another week without being looted/burned. I'm right sick of this shit, man. I am not afraid of guns. I am not against guns. I think guns are pretty cool, honestly, from a mechanics, physics, and chemistry perspective. But I fucking HATE that I am now FORCED to keep one handy. I live in the United States of America- I'm a fucking CITIZEN. I should NOT be facing the possibility of having to actually defend my home not because the nation is under siege, not because the enemy has broken through our borders, not because I woke up in Fallout, somehow. But because the fucking COMMUNISTS in the Government are just ALLOWING VIOLENT ANARCHY to spread like a fucking forest fire.
Anyone breaks down my door tonight, they die. Plain and simple. Any home invaders will not be met by pepper spray or mace or a baseball bat or even by my dog, she'll be safely away in an upstairs room. They'll be met by rounds traveling at lethal velocity. Any blood shed by Americans defending themselves is on the Governors who will not enforce the law.
The competence to own and operate the means of deadly violence to defend your life is simply a basic human responsibility, which you would have regardless of your country of residence or the current political situation.
I'm confident the issue of him coming out for Trump is He's afraid of lunatics trying to Cassandra Fairbanks him. And I can understand that fear.
He already had some nutjob show up at his house during the night. The guy came back the next morning while Tim was recording a video.
It's intentional. It's the same tactic I have to use at work or in class (college/grad school). I respect it, as it's the only way to reach a particular audience. Not to mention, Tim has made it increasingly clear, especially the past few days, that he will most likely vote Trump.
His content is about 99% everything you'd find on this sub, and about 1% "I'm leaning towards Trump but, we'll see how things play out," and "I'm a center left milquetoast fence-sitter." I'm more than ok with that, especially as it allows him to reach people that figures like Tucker, Levin, Crowder, etc, could never reach and would be immediately dismissed as biased. It's intentional framing, and I have to use it all the time in certain situations, and it's effective
Tim leans left and comes here too check out "our side" of the story, and tries not to take us out of context. I love the guy for that alone.
Exactly. Tim is the sane-liberal this country needs again. I watch every one of his videos and I respect him and value his opinion. He's honest and I appreciate that.
Him being a leftist and stating "I'm still looking at both sides." to his followers so they don't leave doesn't bother me as long as he's slinging those red pills Johnny Appleseed-style.
Bingo.
In quite sure he’s not claiming to still be looking at both sides. There is a 0% chance he will vote for Biden. He’s either voting for trump or not voting at all and it’s a coin toss between the two
It shocks me the amount of people who would prefer no voice at all to the one that dispenses red pills to an audience who would otherwise never hear or consider such ideas.
I would guess that this guy has done more to wake people up than any rando throwing shade by calling him a phony (anonymously, online) has.
Also the 12 angry psychos of twitter would go after him 6 ways from Sunday, so to speak.
Lol.. I see what you did there
I don't see that as any different than putting a BLM sign in your business window to try to avoid having a brick thrown through it. Survival tactics don't make you a bad person.
As someone in a blue state surrounded by the left on all sides I can appreciate Tim's public stance.
Gotta pay the bills man... It's not really his fault that he was brainwashed like half of the country... The important thing is that he's starting to wake up, but is now staring down the possibility of losing his main source of income... Which is no fun if you have a family to support, or just yourself
The other day he told about his leftist vegan hippie friends who told him they are voting for Trump
That's the way I interpreted it as well
Tim's made no secret that he plants his flag in the center left in the empty field where the Democrat party only a few years ago used to be. This serves to highlight just how far and insane the blue supremacists are today.
Elaborating more on his show, he's shifted independent. He's not tribal left or right. He's asking both parties "what are you going to offer me?" He's negotiating for his issues. Not playing the tribal game. I respect that.
LOL, yeah, it's the guy who does the live podcast with him. Dude got red pilled hard.
He's still trying to figure out how his 'friend' managed to get stuck inside his bathroom mirror!
I truly think it’s cover. If he came out as supporting Trump, the outrage mob would have him censored.
Yeah he isn't fooling anyone but it's good to have his message out there.
He want's to mainly grow his channel, but one good development he has done is he bought a gun and is now realizing how hard it is to get one in his state.
Exactly this. Dude is redpilling tons of people and is doing great work.
Even if he didn't vote Trump, he's redpilled so many people they'd drown out his vote (or lack of vote) for Trump anyway.
Can confirm: Am one of those that got red pilled because of Tim Pool.
I don't get the hate he gets on here sometimes. I was first introduced to him on Joe Rogan last year when they were talking about Twitter and social media bias against conservatives. Then I started watching his channels last summer as I got slowly frustrated with cancel culture and the puritanism of the Left. He got me into watching The Daily Wire guys and then Stephen Crowder (who's my favorite now). I stared entertaining the idea of possibly voting for Trump earlier this year after continuing to see the insanity of the Left. It wasn't until the pandemic I was like, eff it, I'm voting Trump.
Honestly, I never thought I'd be here on this forum today. After Clinton lost in 2016, I was legit down for a week (WTF?!). I even wrote on Facebook this emotional post how I'll never stop fighting for #BlackLivesMatter, how I'll always support LGBT and women's rights, how I'll fight for gun control, all the BS Leftist stuff you hear today. No joke. I CRINGE at the stuff I used to say and believe. I feel like a whole new person now and it feels great. Even though I have to hide my true feelings because I'm in a massive woke city in the entertainment industry (music).
So don't hate on Tim. He may sound a little loony and this meme is hilariously true, but he's red pilling folks like me. I'd be surprised if he doesn't end up voting for Trump.
MAGA is a wide net of very diverse people who just love the US and/or aren't flat out brainwashed NPC's. I'm a lefty like Tim who believes in universal healthcare but I also love my country and don't like watching it burn nor do I like open borders, etc...
So yea, Tim's ganna get some haters in here but we have more in common with everyone here (love of country) than the people who strait up hate our country and believe we should submit to global orgs and kneel to people depending on their race as recent events have shown us.
True. It is an online forum with thousands and thousands of different views. However, I can only voice my opinion and say that Tim Pool is probably helping A LOT in getting more and more members joining this forum and supporting Trump.
He is. Worry not!
You and I are proof
*edit- and who knows... it might even help us hating on tim here. Because if we hate him... the left would think he's good. If we love him, the left will believe he's evil. I guess things are pretty easy when your enemy is fucking retarded.
100% this. Seems to be a distinct pattern occurring.
This is so true.
Exactly this. The dude is MAGA AF, you can tell from how passionate he gets talking about the ridiculous shit occurring with the left. I mean, those people are literally proposing to abolish the fucking police. It's beyond laughable at this point. He can't say that though or else he'll incur the wrath of the mob and will be de-platformed. He doesn't want a target on his back.
Same here my left wing coworkers we're wearing Hillary baseball caps in the office and they would crack jokes about Trump and asked me who I was voting for so I would just say "i'm apolitical"
I wouldn't put it past them to lie and get you fired if you had said Trump, you made the right choice.
I’ll bet the same is true of Stephen L. Miller (not the Trump adviser, the other Stephen Miller, aka. @redsteeze on Twitter).
He clearly isn’t a Trump fan and he insults him a fair bit, but Miller is so disillusioned with the fake news media, that he’s likely dishing out red pills to his followers with the way he exposes the MSM all day long. And while he’ll never admit to it, it wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up voting Trump out of sheer hatred for the other side.
If you don’t follow him already, I HIGHLY recommend it. Even though he’s anti-Trump, he is absolutely fantastic on Twitter. He thoroughly and meticulously tears the ever-loving shit out of MSM journos all day long. He does a better job of it than just about anyone I’ve ever seen, and he does it all with really dry, sarcastic sense of humor. He’s one of the absolute best people to follow on Twitter.
I know you're smiling at this tim.
He admitted in his recent video that he browses TheDonald.win
Hey Tim. If you read this. I've been watching you for probably 2 years now. I found you after I found Styx. I've been maga since Bernie got fucked over in 2016. Somehow I was a Bernie bro.. I'm ashamed. Even travelled 5 hours to watch him speak in Seattle in 2015. Love what you do. I swear the redpoll is right on your tongue ready to swallow.
Wow! I found Tim via Styx too!
Not enough YouTube content creators do. Let's bring them in!
His views aren’t your own, he turned me into a trump supporter last year after antifa flooded a building. Before that, I hadn’t heard anything negative about them, but experiencing them on my own was a social nightmare
they did what now? is this fucking looney toons?
They flooded some lawyers office? I’m not quite sure anymore as it was a year ago.
They were planning on releasing toxic gasses and such during Trump's inauguration. Veritas exposed some pretty serious stuff they were doing.
He's a neutral red pill for others
He said in a video this week that he is leaning towards Trump
I like that we give him so much publicity, which is his goal
Word.... I was being a bit tongue in cheek, I think he's definitely a supporter but is afraid of getting the banhammer from YT if he goes full Trump. Personally his style is a bit too much for me, he makes everything seem like the biggest deal in the world when that's rarely the case. Most journalists do that however, including the good ones. They need those clicks.
He has admitted to doing that on purpose. He admits to doing clickbait, fear porn etc with thumbnails and titles because that's the only way he gets traffic on YouTube. At least he's honest.
He plays the same game as the msm, but does it well enough to make a good living as an independent commentator, while dishing out subtle redpills. If you need to argue against a brainwashed "conservative media is lying" cuck, sending them the "liberal" Tim Pool is always great fun.
I prefer my journalists to try and stride the neutral honestly. And Tim does that in spades. Im not expecting him to lurch right or anything. But he is up front enough, and talks about actual happenings.
Hed be a fine journalist in most any time. And hes a million tines better than the majority of others. Also why i dont mind seeing him pop here. Other opinions are great sharpeners.
To a certain extent, I think he is remaining 'undecided' to appeal to a larger audience. If he came out and supported Trump he'd instantly lose a lot of viewers (the left doesn't want to hear any narrative but their own) and his messages wouldn't be as effective.
He knows damn well he's voting for Trump, but by playing the undecided card, he reaches people that otherwise wouldn't listen to him, thus increasing his ability to spread that redpill.
I could be wrong, though.
I agree lots of people are missing this. Him being neutral is better for the fight in the long run. If he comes out for trump his message will be way less effective and he will be no longer able to reach those on the fence leftys. If you have a lefty friend who's questioning their ideas it's way easier to get them to watch a Tim Pool clip than a Tucker Carlson clip. Trust me this has been effective at times in my inner circles. He gets lots of unjustified hate here.
yes it is basic human one on one.
Main character getting hitched tanks the ratings.
If he came out full MAGA he'd be removed from Youtube within a week.
Tim is a better newsman that 95% of the MSM. He actually does research unlike the dummy acting school drop outs on MSM who read off the prompter.
He kinda makes me think how Scott Adams was in the last election. Thinks Trump will win, but isn't fully bought in.
We can all agree that Scott Adams has made himself useful though.
'All i know is that my gut says maybe.'
-Tim Pool, Neutral People Party
It's complicated
He was just born with a heart full of neutrality
Haha, that's funny
How does one become neutral?
Ever the milquetoast fence sitter
OP said this is partly in jest. I think we like Tim more than we dislike him. Some will demand fealty, but they're not a majority because, we're not the radical left
It's to redpill the centrists, not the left.
What happens to conservatives on YouTube? That's why.
Ha! Tim is totally going to see this.
Hi Tim, keep up the good work Buddy.
IMO, Tim is bringing more people to TRUMP than just about anyone on Youtube. Fence sitters (or undecided) are the EXACT audience that needs to be courted. This is why I turn Fence sitters onto Tim as a way to 1st get them engaged and then vote Trump
Not gonna lie, it would sort of ruin it for me if he went full Trump supporter. I can watch Hannity for something like that, while Tim interprets the daily news through the lens of a centrist or moderate type and that's cool with me. I like to think other centrists see things his way and while he might say he's not voting Trump, he definitely isn't voting Democrat, and I'll take that as a W.
We are the most welcoming people, you know. We will forgive in an instant (proof we don’t hate).
We know you lurk here Tim, just register and say hello.
His friend Adam straight out said he is voting for Trump. Tim's not fooling anybody! My husband and I laugh every time he says this🤣
Did you mean Soy Jesus?
You guys are underestimating how useful Tim Pool is for infiltrating leftist sites like Youtube with airdrop red pills bombardments every day. His videos have a large viewing base even for someone with his sub size.
By not openly declaring a war on George Soros and the Commies and hocking a battle rifle on air, hes infiltrated under the radar. He will declare MAGA at the last moment and go out guns blazing on Nov. 2
Lol, we all know he's on the train with us. It's okay he doesn't have to say it because he helps a lot by staying "neutral"
Tim, if you're reading this, love and appreciate the work you do.
Fence sitters en masse are literally buying guns as we speak. Trump is doing just fine. He's projecting strength in a time where good but weak people are being run over by the thought police (Brees a good high profile example)
All normies who don't want to live in a fascist leftist utopia are running as fast as they can towards Trump
There is.
People exactly like Tim. Leading off a conversation with a lefty with some variation of "I hate Trump, but" is the only way they don't immediately dismiss your argument.
I started watching some of his videos over the last week. If the things he talks about are true then he has no reason to support the left at all.
Though I think he just has too many friends who are moderate from him to support Trump all out.
He is a fence-sitter and you just have to keep that in mind if you follow him. He doesn't seem like a bad guy.
He’s ‘I don’t like his Tweets’ in the streets but ‘MAGA in the sheets’
He said he's most likely gonna vote Trump. Oh and Crowder is sending him a Sig AR-15 for free.
Well his friend Adam who is on all the time now speaks the truth and says it like it is. He's 100% voting Trump and is 100% against the BLM and evil democrats. He's a cool dude.
It's like watching someone struggle swallowing a huge vitamin without any water...
Tim is a journalist, one of the last ones. I actually appreciate him not making a statement on who he will vote for, considering that's what ruined journalism to begin with.
Bahaha I love Tim but this is money, especially nailed the expression captures! I really hope he sees this he’ll get a kick out of it
Tim is mass red pill dealer that doesn't take his own supply. He's turned way more people to Trump than I think most pro-Trump conservative commentators ever have with his centrist shtick, in the same way that Dave Ruben kept stubbornly clinging to the title of liberal. That's why I think the hate for him is a bit much.
Ann Coulter is a c-
...ontemptable person, but there is one quote that I like that this post reminds me of.
"As far as I'm concerned I'm the middle of the road and the rest of you are crazy."
THAT'S enlightened centrism, bitches!
Lol his schtick is played. Pick a side. I don’t even care which one but stop with this nonsense of talking about the lunacy of the left but going back and forth on POTUS. If you vote Democrat at this point you are truly lost. These people are insane.
He said today he would be definitely voting, which is a change from, "theres nobody to vote for." Take a wild guess.
He says that he isn't voting for Trump while making the argument that Trump is the only real choice. Honestly, if that gets more people to listen to reason, then more power to him.
Nice post, TIM! Don't you have some videos to edit? Isn't tonight "wash my beanie" night?
Here he is with Crowder, sounds like he's pretty much pro trump or certainly anti-dems.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjQ1eHqSCTo
YES! Tim Pool rocks, he's great for us because he shits on the dems but does it in a way that opens the eyes of the less extreme lefties. We all know he's voting for Trump, he just doesn't want to be on record saying it this soon.
This is what fear of leftists does to otherwise respectable people.
I got no problem with Tim, except that he takes 10-20 minutes to say what could be said in 3.
He finally embraced his destiny as rooftop Korean.
He's pandering to the Centrist.
I don't think he deserves the attention he gets. He's not that smart. He has hot takes he gets off twitter and reads the same shit we all do. He's you're average guy who doesn't want to get called out for being right wing.
He is out for views it has nothing to do with integrity
To be fair, I can’t remember the things I read. I can read fine but nothing sticks. Going through the news and hearing opinions about it paints a solid picture of where the lines are, why they’re there and what I can further take from it,
Every time Tim Pool talks about 'social engineering', he is letting us know exactly what he is doing. The guy is clearly a master of persuasion and builds a career off it. He is fully redpilled, no doubt about it. Just let him do what he does best. I watch nearly all of his vids... I don't agree with him on every issue but if you track his opinion on various things it's clear he has a decent handle on many issues, and is an expert on media malfeasance.
Hi Tim! No worries, do what you need to do.
GET OFF THE FENCE, TIM!
