Hearing that Asmond was surprised Trump got as many votes as he did was shocking to me considering he lives in Texas. Then I remembered he's in Austin and it made sense
Its not so much a matter of big companies giving news orgs instruction on what they can and can't say, the problem is the news orgs will avoid making their investors look bad to prevent them pulling their investment. So networks will basically self censor to keep the money happy.
There is such a thing as bad editors and bad journalists, but every journalist is bad without a good editor. The uncritical reporting coming out of "alt-media" (LIKE THE GUY IN THIS VIDEO) is because there aren't any editors credibility-checking the facts and quality-checking the claims.
I think a better idea would be to do something similar to community notes. Ofc YT videos are much longer than a simple tweet, so it would have to be modified or improved upon for YT's use case.
10:47 idk what's so hard for you to understand. there is a huge group of people who think Jan. 6th was an attempt at overthrowing the government by an opposing huge group of people. the argument isn't that it was okay for people to enter the capitol and mess things up; it's about debunking the 'overthrowing the government part'.
They were literally trying to stop the votes from being certified lol. Was it some high level conspiracy? Fuck no. But there was a fuck ton of people that actually thought they would stop the count because they were sold a load of bullshit about a stolen election.
@@ThatNorwegianGuy- there's very little common sense on the right. If anything, most common sense is in the center. But even then, common sense can be wrong.
It's not that people appeared "peaceful" it's that people were literally ushered into the capital by police and are sitting in solitary confinement for years without a trial.
Officer guarding the capital: gets hit in the head with a fire extinguisher before being beaten with their own riot shield This clown: that guy ushered them in!
Nobody "ushered people in" lol. What I saw was an under staffed force that had basically zero chance of stopping that crowd from getting in. What happened on January 6 was the same shit that happened in Texas where those cops shit themselves while an active shooter was killing kids. They shit their pants and gave up period.
What happens is that no one actually watches whole segments anymore and rely on headlines, and clips. There is a narrative and its division. Keep us divided keep us controlled.
Even if you watch the whole segments, that doesn’t really matter. Your point stands regardless. Ten seconds of alt right talking points vs ten minutes of alt right talking points; regardless it is all just alt right talking points.
The problem with Asmon's theory is that Tucker was AGAINST covering the Dominion story because he thought it didn't hold water. The lawsuit never would have happened if Fox just listened to Tucker.
and people defending the disgust towards magnesium (among other vitamins and minerals) , makes see that the stupity once again reigns supreme, I wasn't expecting to be surprised by how stupid people can get, but this actually made me rethink that
@@xLuis89x with all the wellness wave of behavior I wasn’t expecting that but clearly Twitch chatters are just not very informed about biology and health. People have gaps in knowledge in certain cultures/demographics. Clearly, they should have been taught this kinda thing in school. I know I was. My education wasn’t even top class.
Would be interesting to see how much Fox News subscribership fell-off on their RU-vid channel after Tucker's dismissal. 3.5M nightly viewers only accounts for the television show, but many people watched his show on other platforms.
You can't avoid Fox News or CNN if you are a cable subscriber. They are part of every package. You can't call Xfinity and say I don't want to pay for FOX News remove it and leave my other channels.
True, most of them were terrorists, some of them were just retarded, and a very small minority are the ultra rich who organized the whole thing. All of them deserve to go to fair trial.
At this point if you were in the building, you were apart of the same protest/mob/etc. Asmon thinks it’s as pointless as us talking on RU-vid comments to give our literal ant opinions because who the f cares and I agree, bye.
@@jonk9293 1. "alot of ppl are being punished for no reason" Who? The people that participated in storming the capital, assaulting police (killing several), disrupted a government proceeding, all while threatening to kill and hang members of congress...? The idiots admitted their crimes.... Because their batshit cult leader didn't win an election, they were trying to somehow subvert the transfer of power. This is like saying the getaway driver at a bank robbery did nothing wrong. Do yourself a favor and search RU-vid for video of Jan 6 before making yourself look like a moron, saying it was just a peaceful protest. 2. "for the other riots ppl aren't even getting a citation" First, again, according to what? Nobody mailed you a letter saying someone was arrested, therefore it didn't happen? Second, burglary/stealing/destruction of property is NOT the same thing as the previous charges. If Jan 6 took place at a Target the consequences would have been far less.
Magnesium isn't medicine my dude asmongold. It is a mineral and we all ingest through our food, however most people are deficient and therefore supplementation can be beneficial.
yeah exactly... it's illegal to cross the street the wrong way xD Lot of random things illegal. Disorderly conduct can include raising your voice in public... you can literally be arrested for raising your voice.
Tucker is actually one of the few Fox News anchors that did report any actual guilt on behalf of dominion. He was actually calling for people to come on and prove it if they could.
Maybe not control.. But if money is involved they are influenced accordingly... Also the point of the jan 6 videos was the people charged weren't the wrong doers and there was government encouragement and perhaps involvement.
@@tylercampbell2147 people are confused because they have believed everything they watch on tv and do little to no critical reasoning and absolutely no they touch no sources other than said tv channels
Indeed they are, willful ignorance. Also that last comment of mime was in response to a less than constructive response to my comment, that has since been deleted.
This is the only time I have seen Asmon talk in circles, the struggle was real. Normally he is very bright. I guess intelligence goes out the window whenever emotions get involved.
No, the problem is that this guy is talking out of his ass. Tucker Carlson wasn't fired because he went against "the message". Tucker Carlson IS the message. He is literally exactly what Fox News has been pushing on the Republican voter base for the last 7 years. Why would they stop him now? What has he said in the past week that he hasn't said in the past 7 years? They fired him because he finally cost them more money than he's worth.
The funny thing with Tucker Carlson is that he did not actually made Fox a lot of money, even with the at one time most popular (non) news show, since he could not get any profitable sponsors or advertisers to feature in his show or do the ad breaks
Tucker was another 20 billion dollar lawsuit waiting to happen. And they already lost a multi-billion dollar lawsuit. They couldnt afford to risk another one.
My favorite part about his explanation of Tucker being fired is completely avoiding the text and other information found about how Tucker didn't like what he was saying on TV.
I don’t particularly care about who you hate, so I won’t point out anything apart from “progressives” always seeming so bitter, angry and uninformed seems a bit sad.
@@wlfxy Yeah that was sus as hell both scenarios are bad for Trump. If it wasn't rigged, it means that he's lost enough middle ground to keep power. If it was rigged, it means every American system from the military, CIA, FBI, other intel agencies, security agencies, companies and even Republicans were in on it to get rid of Trump.
So I saw a video from Facts Matter with Roman Balmakov and it made a ton of sense. Public companies have an ESG score (environmental, social governance) , how many diversity hires you have on your board, carbon footprint, and LGBT friendly makes this up. As non of an issue as those things are in reality, the ESG score determines how much investment capitol a company can have access to. Sacrificing Tucker, who was calling out this type of shit, especially a company called Blackrock who own a huge chunk of Newscore who owns Fox, could raise their ESG score if Tucker is gone.
For someone who claims to be logical and a critical thinker, Asmon sure does like to not think logically or critically when it comes to this stuff. It's so blatantly obvious what's going on at this point you'd have to have cognitive dissonance to not see it.
@@SrMorua so I’d say my personal opinion is the US is the most prominent center of power in the world and we’re constantly being pulled by special interests to follow agendas to keep our influence over other superpowers’ influence and in order to keep this balancing act from toppling over the people have to be lied to constantly. You can’t really say either side is honest obviously there’s bad republicans that haven’t been shunned for doing things that aren’t so conservative. The democrats constantly complain about the police being too militarized but want to strip all citizens of the power to fight back against a militarized police and then also want a militarized police to go after those that would stand against the government. That’s not to say there aren’t republicans that wouldn’t sell out the right of the people for the right price but my view in general is stay dangerous because once you can’t fight back you’re just going to have to bend to the will of an authoritarian government. Look at China during Covid. They literally welded doors shut and brought rations. Australia forced people into camps though they were accommodating to modern necessities I imagine. In general I don’t think people can expect the government to fix their problems. If everyone did their part in developing themselves and finding their place to contribute to their community, we would be in a much better position than we are currently. Yeah there’s people who are disadvantaged but there’s people in history who’ve done more while coming from less. If everyone took responsibility of themselves we’d have a much easier time weeding out the people who only want to manipulate and mislead people for their own gain pushing someone else’s agenda.
@@overthrone3494 thanks Over Throne. Yes I agree in most things you mentioned, and I have seen some of those examples in independent news media. I was asking also because I like to hear from people who had a different point of view than Asmon in this topic. He is a very smart man that is usually very convincing when explaining things, but that doesn't mean I should act as a fan boy who is going to always answer "yes master!" to everything he says, that's why I like to hear other points of view about this topic, and why this guy says Asmon cannot see the obvious thing, which I can only assume as he is not explicit about it. So far what I undestand is the reporter was fired because conflict of interests, it's about giving bad image to a major investor (the pharmaceuticals) affecting their stock value, but others say it goes further, it is about the woke agenda, "the message", and from what I can see it could be both, but yeah, when you "follow the money" it goes to the conclusion of Asmon easily. In a perfect world News media should be neutral and transparent no matter what. But in reality they need money to be sustainable, money always comes with influence, and that influence along greed or necessity may corrupt.
3:58 If a news company has any funders whether or not the funder has a direct hand in operations, news companies are not going to do anything outside their interests because they don’t want to lose funding and so the funders don’t need to put a direct hand into things
I think the whole problem with ppl going in the building and messing stuff up and stealing stuff is a lot of ppl feel like they are backed into a corner. most of the ppl that work for the government rarely receive punishments for their actions. like a police officer can pull you over for what ever reason he wants to make up, like "suspicion" gets you out of the car and then says he thought you had a weapon and shoots you. even if there is substantial evidence that the cop was in the wrong and you sue him and the police department, but you aren't actually suing him your suing yourself and your neighbors cause tax dollars are what pays you the settlement and what happens to the cop. they get to retire and they get all their pension and you get to pay for it all or they get to take some class. the bottom line is if they don't listen or change and there is never usually a punishment and they don't care if you file a complaint or sue them cause they investigate themselves and you the tax payers are the one paying for their mistake. What other option do you have to show your disgust and distain for them. well i can tell you not all ppl but most are starting to fight back with other things like the "so called insurrection" or violence. I don't hate police or government officials. I JUST HATE WHAT THEY NOW REPRESENT AND STAND FOR.
Well, Technically the Capitol belongs to the people and all that "stuff" in it also belongs to the people. Therefore, everything they "destroyed" that day, belonged to them... (and we "the people" also paid to repair and replace the "stuff" in the Capitol that "we the people" own.) That's not to say the idiots that did that were in the right, but lets be honest.. the law enforcement at the capitol did not resist the crowd and certainly did unlock doors and let them in. I have no doubt the "Left" wanted the "riot" (if you can even call it that) to happen for political gain. (This helped "their" cause, not the "right's".) Always look to who benefits from an event, and the truth usually comes into focus... Just my 2cents of course...
“There’s a lot of firms that control money but don’t actually make any decisions” - Asmon Bro come on. They make decisions if they control the funds it’s not rocket surgery
The weird thing about Trucker he is he was turning into an anti big corporation, communist since covid. So people are like "He's so bad ha ha" and I'm like. "Dude came off as joking about Universal income before he really didn't seem like he was joking anymore."
I HATE the idea of a UBI... But the MORE we automate things, the more likely it is that we will REQUIRE a UBI in order for people to live. That's just a fact. Your average Joe is not going to be a robotics engineer, technician or programmer. When all the jobs are being performed by AI, Robots, or Computers, you need to have a LOT of Highly Educated people, likely with 6-8 years of college in order to build, program and maintain the new workforce of non-humans... Where does that leave MILLIONS upon MILLIONS of Americans who simply CANNOT get that education?
Because he’s smarter than us. He doesn’t waste his time listening to people lie to us for a living. Keeping up to date is quite hard, it’s why even very informed and intelligent people can disagree on so much in politics.
I love how asmon accidentally dismantled the entire argument before it started. The whole entire thing is based on the premise that both companies have the same decision-makers, and Asmon took one look at the graph and took away that argument’s legs. That argument went from “this is reality” to “this is one thing that looks bad but may not necessarily be” real quick, and with that, every following argument becomes a reach.
do you really think that the decision makers for both companies do not report their strategies to the top? or that they would do anything to infringe the money for their parent companies?
@@bellcross9985 I don’t think it’s as simple as “CNN and Fox News are actually one channel pretending to be two”. That’s like the “Ash Ketchum is dead and in a coma” of news theories; it makes you feel smarter because it feels like it fits, so long as you don’t know anything about the matter in question.
@@bellcross9985 And do you think the share holders want all of their companies to act the same? "Diversify your assets" is a mantra for these rich f*ckers. They only care about money. If they see two differing tactics work, they will invest in both of them, especially if they oppose each other, simply to see which is the winning one.
Asmon, Magnesium isn't a pharmaceutical.... It's a Mineral which would count as a Vitamin or supplement, not a pharmaceutical product. You never seize to amaze when proving how little you know of the real world.
Yeesh. Asmon with the very brave takes like "I think January 6th was an L." So bold of him to say that raiding the capitol to aid in overthrowing an election based on idiotic conspiracy theories is a bad thing. Truly enlightened political commentary.
To be fair, whether you agree with tucker or not, he makes good content. He has the best "are you stupid?" expression on his face and the pure cringe that comes on at times is a joy.
You mean reacting to him right, because white supremacy and basically mind controlling boomers everywhere into becoming literal fascists isn’t “good content”.
nah, we are in an age were ''He doesn't think the same as me! , I HATE HIM'' to the extreme, so I wouldn't get my hopes up, specially when it comes to politics in the USA
Dominion case was a contributing factor, but many text messages from Carlson were revealed in those redacted documents that revealed Tucker said some very nasty things about people in charge of his show. That will get you fired no matter what.
wouldn't shareholders of fox be able to sue the board for not acting in the best interest of the corporation? I thought publicly traded company HAVE TO act profit oriented.
Saying having an AD for a pharmaceutical in a video bashing BigPharma isn’t hypocritical if the pharmaceutical doesn’t benefit the system of BigPharma. The only wild take in this video tho 10/10
The footage isn't meant to excuse it, it's meant to show evidence of it being staged. It's not just that some people were peacefully there, they were led there by cops. Plus there have been identified members of groups like BLM and Antifa in with the crowd, so who knows who did what for what reason. All we know is that this was treated as an "insurrection" while the riots were excused or even praised, but the riots lasted months and innocent people had their lives destroyed or even ended in those riots, while only "insurrectionists" died in an "insurrection" that only amounted to a few idiots bumbling inside a building.
Tucker acted to mega crazy christian at the wrong table. Capitalists doesn't like when you are to religious weird. But they don't care if you lie and wear a brown shirt at all apparently.
Yeah using stock price to say companies lose billions is usually just an attempt to make headlines. Bud was 58 a share in February it’s 64 today just because it dropped from its ytd high in early April doesn’t mean much of anything since they are still up 6 points on the year and up 20 from its low back in October.
14:04 as a floridian... Understand this. Our state of Florida does not get a cut from disney. They got rid of the Florida Resident pricing. They dont want us locals. They want people that will pay because it is Disney World. Universal is better and pays a tax.
Patrick david and the valuetainment already offerend tucker a 100 million contract live on air (youtube it) Hes not taking a L, he gets offers in the door anyday! Who dont want 3 million daily viewers as tucker had?
I would bet money, the reason tucker got fired was because after the lawsuit, fox told tucker to stop talking about certain things and tucker said he wouldn't and they threaten to fire him and he said that they couldn't fire him because he's too popular and fox would lose too much money and they fired him for that
My boi Asmon, @26:00 the DNC isn't saying that Biden won't debate the eventual GOP nominee (presumably Trump). They are saying that Biden won't be debating democratic primary candidates. It's very rare for a president seeking a second term to debate his own party... In fact, I don't remember it *ever* happening.... at least going back as far as Ronald Reagan.
14:05 "The DeSantis Disney thing made DeSantis look bad in the eyes of most people." According to who? Many people applauded DeSantis responding to political attacks from a supposedly neutral company. Sorry if you disagreed with DeSantis, and you wanted him to do nothing when a company undermined his policies, and promoted their own agenda.
I'd like to point out that Desantis caved and let them keep the tax exemption status. That's what they're talking about there. Desantis is only going for the easy political wins and isn't actually fighting the big fights, but only pretending to do so.
I think that more and more people are starting to be logical and not just agreeing with everything a party says, and as a result news companies are finding it harder to find people who don't question their agenda to some extent. I think no matter how biased some of these people still are, they're no longer afraid to speak out against things they truly don't agree with and not just the stuff they're told to disagree with. Opinion shows on news channels are basically just reality shows. It's the equivalent of watching storage wars or something and thinking it's not staged and choreographed. Also, calling someone who is found guilty of something a martyr, that's setting the bar pretty low. Trump is not a martyr. The loosest definition of martyr is someone who suffers. I don't think Trump has come out of anything worse for wear. The internet finds a way to dilute every concept until it applies to everyone.
If you call what Trump done "nothing", then I'd prefer nothing over what's Biden doing. Or what Democrats are doing in places like California and New York.
Tucker never talked about the voting machines. JP mentioned this would be the reason people went with because people were stupid enough to believe it. Then Asmon mentions it like 3 or 4 times lol.
Are you serious? 🤣 He was directly involved in the lawsuit. Why do you think all his text messages were exposed during the court hearing? Find some different sources bruh
@Mista Keez the lawsuit? Of course he didn't agree with it. Lol You guys really have selective memory when it comes to those you like. He repeatedly had ALLL the kooks on his show pushing that narrative about stolen elections and voting machines, nightly! He also has 2 MORE lawsuits coming directly at him. His old producer and Ray Epps, who Tucker and others ruined his life by spreading unfounded lies about him and the insurrection. His text messages that were exposed, IN COURT, also showed how he knowingly lied to his audience on numerous occasions and laughed about it. Yet you guys still constantly defend him. 🤦♂️ Shits hilarious to me. 😂
Totally agree. The public will rise up to remove incorrect reporting. Independent platforms will prevail over a pushed agenda over time as long as the information is accurate and the personalities will remain truthful if they are stating personal opinions as such if there aren’t facts in place. Being honest goes a long ways for public trust. Reporting facts as opinions will ruin a reputation quickly. Just be transparent.
To be fair trump did help us become energy independent. Which meant we no longer needed to placate some nations. That was an objectively great thing. Of course Biden destroyed all that and reverted to the normal state.
I think the chart is less about trying to be woke and thinking oh yeah its all connected. Possibly shows just how intertwined they are at the core and even tho something may not seem like it directly effects the other, its almost impossible to tell every direction of influence from any source when its painted and distributed to people as one vs the other.
