Content Update March 2020 & Bonus Content (Patreon)
Content
Hey pals,
I hope all of you and your loved ones are healthy and are able to take the precautions needed right now. I for one am spending my time in isolation working on the new video for you guys. It feels kinda trivial working on a video discussing an issue that seems trivial in the face of whats going on right now but maybe it'll be a distraction for some of you and I'm also gonna talk about the Corona virus a little bit in it.
I wanted to do a video exploring why so many young people on YouTube get convinced of conservatism when (argueably) it has not much to offer to young people specifically (social issues, economics, climate change). In doing so I'm gonna dissect a bunch of arguments by Ben Shapiro as well as others to show how this kind of rhetoric only prolonges much needed action on issues like systemic racism (especially mass incarceration) but also the corona virus.
Its gonna be done before the end of this month.
Another thing I wanted to let you guys know is that I thought it would be a good idea to make the currently available commentary tracks public for the time being as a little gesture of solidarity from my side. For a lot of people, above all people with mental problems, being isolated and lacking the distraction of everyday life is really hard. There isnt a whole lot I can do but maybe that bonus content might offer a someone a bit of distraction. I know some of you are Patrons of mine so you can get access to that content and I hope you continue to be throughout the timewindow where you dont need to be to see that content. Unfortunately I can't offer all rewards like the discord etc. for free right now since I'm dependant Patreon and when a lot of people feel the sting of an unstable economy, I do too. I will link this post on my twitter and YouTube feed so people know where to find the videos.
Other than that, I'll talk to you folks next week when the video is done (most likely)
Stay safe!
Dan
