this thread is for collecting a community list of youtube creators. (or alternative platform)
not so much for individual videos, but linking 1 video to a creator as a selling point is reasonable.

whatever side the opinions are, give them a shout-out here.
i'll start with a few channels i watch when i'm able.

Ben Shapiro (conservative)
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnQC_G5Xsjhp9fEJKuIcrSw/videos

Don't Walk, Run! Productions (conservative)
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwpDBy43upJR7LZLrgnKkPA/videos

The Jimmy Dore Show (liberal)
https://www.youtube.com/user/TYTComedy/videos

The Joe Rogan Experience (liberal conservative)
https://www.youtube.com/user/PowerfulJRE/videos

Timcast / Tim Pool (liberal conservative)
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe02lGcO-ahAURWuxAJnjdA/videos
https://www.youtube.com/user/Timcasts/videos

The Quartering (conservative)
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfwE_ODI1YTbdjkzuSi1Nag/videos

just off the top of my head from that list:

• 1 man arrested by the FBI for death threats against Ben Shapiro
  
• Tim Pool physically assaulted by Antifa while covering protests and threatened by them online too many times to count
  
• Jeremy Hambly victim of a pseudo-assassination attempt when a crazed SJW tracked him down and tried to bash his head in outside a bar

so 3/6 at least. Not sure whether Jimmy Dore or Joe Rogan have been threatened for their beliefs

Joe Rogan is well known for being armed, so maybe a bit less likely.

i don't agree with a lot of what jimmy dore says, mostly the same stuff i also don't agree with from tim pool.

jimmy hasn't seen the "activism" some of the others have, he has been introduced to some of the "cancel culture" though.
seemingly due to his harsh criticism of clinton, and has been anti-war in the middle-east since i've started watching him. (he's giving trump more and more credit lately too, which usually brings cancel culture as well)



joe rogan has a massive following.
you can't bribe someone if you don't know for certain that they'll accept that bribe. (i find it very unlikely he'd take bribes to hide context)
you also can't pin him as a right/left wing heathen. he is liked by both sides, so if the attention of cancel culture was directed towards him... it would backfire heavily and give both sides a reason to band together.


speaking of cancel culture... here's your advocate.

John green is probably my favourite though i dont think he does politics specifically

What the fuck does liberal conservative mean... lol. People just make up labels.

Everyone you listed that I'm aware of are all incredibly biased against the establishment and mainstream, which is helpful in some circumstances, but it also skews your perspective in a cynical and unrealistic direction. You should listen to some more mainstream figures as well.

Rational Security, The Remnant Podcast, Pod Save the World, Ezra Klein Show, Sam Harris Podcast, The Editors are all solid. It's a mix of right-wingers, left-wingers, and centrists. Although you won't get a ton of obsession over safe spaces and twitter bans.



Plus he's a black belt in jujitsu and a champion in taekwondo. Lol.

liberals are the only ones who make up labels /s

in seriousness tho i consider myself that label. im certainly not going to go around calling myself libertarian just because left leaning libertarian is the closest thing to my ideology. why? because i have next to nothing in common with the libertarian platform overall.

It already went wrong when the definiton of liberal became left wing.

Weirds me out because most of our liberal parties are center right.

I don't find labels very helpful outside of the most surface level political conversations. A lot of the time they're just used as a pejorative.
