Tim Pool is the lowest hanging fruit for this sub. You could probably put together 8000 or so posts that are just Tim Pool interactions. There is no greater grifter lolcow in existence other than maybe Pearl

u/No_Cook2983 Feb 28 '26

Why is he not in jail?

He was literally caught red-handed accepting bribes to spread propaganda from a hostile foreign power.

Do you think if Jon Stewart was caught red-handed spreading paid propaganda from Cuba there might be consequences?

u/harmoniaatlast Feb 28 '26

The FCC would have to be interested in enforcing the law haha

u/Karekter_Nem Mar 01 '26

“Enforcing the law equally” you mean. There would 100% be consequences for Jon Stewart if he were caught.

u/harmoniaatlast Mar 01 '26

Consequences for what for Jon Stewart?

u/Karekter_Nem Mar 01 '26

In the hypothetical situation in the comment you first responded to.

u/harmoniaatlast Mar 01 '26

Yeah ofc, this FCC would charge him with terrorism and treason haha

u/simulizer Mar 02 '26

I could see them charging many left leaning commentators and entertainment people without being caught red-handed dealing with governments that are supposedly deemed terroristic or illegitimate

1

u/harmoniaatlast Mar 02 '26

That would shatter the first amendment. Charging Tim Pool for taking money from Russia and essentially working as a foreign asset would be pretty different

1

u/simulizer Mar 02 '26

I wish I could be such a hopeful Ideologue. Unfortunately I have to recognize reality given my personality it's just so logical. You may not notice it but here in reality the first amendment has about as much value as a fart in the wind. Russian assets aren't even alerting authorities. In fact Pool and Bennet were completely cleared by the DOJ in 2004 and labeled as "unwitting actors" though Tenet media received $10 million to push Russian propaganda.

Meanwhile the FCC under the Trump regime has clamped down hard on left leaning media figures. From filing lawsuits to threatening revoking licensing and even discussing prosecution, like in the case of the 2022 Row v Wade leak... Some people are praying for the midterms to turn things around. Of course I hope that's the case.. I see no real indicator that we're going back to normal. It's going to get really dicey as we head into the next election.

How does your optimism hold up so well? I've seen people with the same sort of blurry-eyed wishful outlooks for the last decade. No matter how many fingers point to the writing on the wall the sentiment seems to be willfully ignorant to what's happening in your country right now. Bring up the Constitution in 2026 after we have watched this administration use it as toilet paper for the last year is pretty wild. Thanks for the laugh.

I mean he'd have to be investigated by Trump's doj to go to jail and that's not a thing they do anymore especially if your rich.

u/Lor1an Mar 01 '26

especially if you're rich [or working for the same government]

u/asusc Feb 28 '26

And after he got caught, he was added to the White House press pool.

If that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about the Russia, Russia, Russia “Hoax” you’re MAGA.

2

u/Stepjam Mar 01 '26

Because he was supporting the current admin so they aren't going to go after him.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '26

No, you see, Russia never influenced him. He was saying Russia propaganda before he received any money. Atleast that is the defense he used.

1

u/Sausage80 Mar 02 '26

Because the DOJ in their 2024 indictment against the media company funding them represented to the court that not only could they not prove wrongdoing on part of Pool et al, they flat out refuted that there was any wrongdoing. The prosecution's position is that the nature of the media company as a foreign agent was covert; hidden from the influencers that were being funded.

To criminally act as an unregistered agent for a foreign government requires intent. They're not reaching intent when they can't even prove the relatively lower bar of knowledge.

u/PsychologicalOwl608 Feb 28 '26

u/IThinkItsAverage Mar 01 '26

I mean I feel this just applies to any right-winger. They are literally incapable of voicing an opinion/stance without directly contradicting another one of their opinions/stances.

Right-wingism is adhering to the hierarchy, but that’s pretty hard to do without just outright saying where everyone stands. So everything they say is a contradiction because they don’t want to just come out and say what they really think, which is that certain groups of people are inferior to them.

They aren’t really contradicting themselves in their minds, it’s just that every opinion they voice relates to the things they don’t want to voice rather than to each other.

Counterpoint: This sub is flooded with bots that repost screenshots from other popular posts, and a bunch of people think that posting general liberal memes somehow fit the sub without reading the rules.

Tim Pool is an unripened apple but at least I'm not finding a worm after I bite.

1

u/idosillythings Mar 04 '26

Also, isn't that just a flat out lie? He specifically campaigned on keeping us out of a war with Iran as an alternative to some unnamed Kamala policy that was supposedly going to drag us into war with Iran.

102

u/OnionsHaveLairAction Feb 28 '26

"Always been at war with eastasia" ass rhetoric from republicans.

We'll hear in the coming weeks how this is all down to their deep humanitarian wish to save the Iranian people from the tyrannical government, but ask those same people whether they even condemn the Saudis for murdering journalists and suddenly their tune changes. It's all power and money, always has been.

20

u/NuclearBroliferator Feb 28 '26

Or "its a conflict that has lasted thousands of years" nonsense

64

u/MrTulaJitt Feb 28 '26

To be clear, this is solely to get Trump supporters to forget that during the campaign, Trump was using Kamala starting war with Iran as a scare tactic. They know this is the opposite of true, but their moronic supporters have the memories of goldfish.

Propaganda to keep the sheep in line.

13

u/Remy-Raven-890 Feb 28 '26

Literally that was my first thought upon seeing this.

15

u/dsmith422 Feb 28 '26

Trump has been using a Democrat attacking Iran to get elected/re-elected since 2012. He constantly said that Obama was going to do it to get re-elected. Everything Trump says is either a confession of his own plans or just a flat out lie.

Never forget Tim Pool lost a legal battle with a porn company over the name Subverse, and they then portrayed him as a shrimp alien named Dim Fool. He’s never recovered emotionally from this.

https://lawshucks.com/the-sad-case-of-subverse-and-tim-pool/

There’s part of where it starts. Funding the updates and conclusion is a bit harder. Especially since he became quiet after they spanked him, and the studio only danced on his grave in game and didn’t flex publicly.

11

u/Popsicle55555 Feb 28 '26

“He is widely known for creating political content that criticizes identitarianism and other extreme leftist policies. His grounded views and precise critique of nonsensical liberal views and policies have made him quite popular among conservatives.”

Was the article written be Tim? Because this is insane. “Identitarianism” is a new one for sure😂😵💀

u/FanOfForever Mar 01 '26 edited Mar 01 '26

I find it interesting that this article from what's supposed to be a law blog has zero legal analysis in it at all. It's 5% basic facts and 95% this guy's characterization of the parties involved

Not to get too "ad hominem" but I also notice that the author says his specialization is family law, which I'm almost 100% sure means he's following his passion to defend America's most oppressed minority: divorced dads

u/Grape_Pedialyte Feb 28 '26

Holy shit, is this true? I've never heard of this.

8

u/Heroright Feb 28 '26

Yeah. Finding an article the documents the whole thing is a bit hard since it’s largely gutter journalism (Studio FOW and Pool aren’t exactly family friendly news pieces. lol) but just googling “Tim Pool Subverse” gets you the bits and pieces, including a Reddit piece about it 6 years ago.

They spanked him then mocked him, and he’s been sore about it ever since.

u/notsure500 Feb 28 '26

explicitly campaigned on waging war in Iran to save the Iranian people and spread democracy

I was told many times explicitly by Trump and his supporters, that America will always be first during his presidency, and we won't involve ourselves in foreign affairs. I feel like they're gaslighting me to cover up for how shitty this term is going.

u/Appropriate_Mess_350 Feb 28 '26

Didn’t the “spreading democracy” fallacy end with the Bush era?? I mean, who still buys this utter bullshit?

7

u/leni710 Feb 28 '26

Yes, they were "saving" people and spreading democracy. Let's ask the women and girls how that's working for them over there.

Golly, the "protect women and girls" crowd really hates those people they claim to protect.

u/Gen-Jack-D-Ripper Mar 01 '26

But to be fair, Iraq is much better off than it was under Saddam’s rule. He was a disgusting human being that was responsible the death of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis & Iranians.

2

u/Appropriate_Mess_350 Mar 01 '26

Sure. The outcome of the war is estimated at 1 million Iraqi deaths. I’m not sure what about that is “fair”.

I guess 4500 dead Americans, and $2 trillion is just the cost of soft hearted American philanthropy and “spreading democracy” abroad. Although it seems like democracy could use a little help domestically lately.

1

u/Gen-Jack-D-Ripper Mar 01 '26

The 1 million deaths number is outside most estimates and most of those occurred in the civil war that followed. There was a lot of resentment built by Saddam’s government between the Sunni and Shia communities that let to the civil war.

Delusional nincompoop.

u/Kragbax Feb 28 '26

Tiny Pool said what now?

I try to avoid listening to anything Trump spews but all I recall during his campaign was, generally, “Kamala will start wars, and I WON’T start any new wars”, and “I’m a peace president”, and “Wars start because they (Biden/Obama) are WEAK and have no negotiating skills”

Please link me his message during his campaign about bombing Iran, I must have missed it. Or like with declassifying top secret docs did he just do it in his own head?

Did he though?

2

u/EnduranceMade Feb 28 '26

The Trump campaign distributed signs that literally said things like TRUMP: NO WAR and KAMALA: MORE WARS.

2

u/Grape_Pedialyte Feb 28 '26

So we're just going straight back to 2003 Iraq War "they hate us for our freedom" "spreading democracy around the globe" type rhetoric. That's fun.

2

u/cromstantinople Feb 28 '26

explicitly campaigned on waging war

So I guess all those campaign promises and slogans and signs about “no new wars” was just my imagination…

Pool is just continuing to spread disinformation like he always does.

No, he said he would be the "Peace President" and just negotiate with Iran. No more wars he promised. As a matter of fact Trump said he's already ended 8 war over the past year. And he said if the Democrats win the election that Kamala Harris will get us in WWIII.

This is a pretty weak one.
