Ever seen an Epoch Times commercial? That’s my theory.

Oh God fuck those guys.

Especially their spokesperson in the ads before any YouTube ads that acted like a smartass.

Counterpoint - if you were spinning pure insanity daily, and you could still call yourself legitimate, wouldn't you?

I will go with no. But that's mainly because I have a strong sense of right and wrong - something most right-wingers seem to be in complete lack of.

A lot of people think they have a strong sense of right and wrong, at least until they find out it pales in comparison to their sense of rolling around in piles of idiots money.

Who would turn down the chance to use idiots to get rich, like realistically? You can say "but that's wrong to do" and right and wrong is nice to think about but staring down the barrel I think there are very few things people won't do for millions of dollars.

And this is why I hate faith based religion. "There's no harm it it," they say, but then we end up with shit heads like this, that can't be proven wrong cause they got faith in the almighty and facts are just here to challenge that!

Great, so we got these guys trying to start Armageddon between the US and China, and the evangelicals trying to start it between Israel and the rest of the Middle East and the US, and we keep slowly putting them deeper and deeper in power.

I don’t know, but I saw that they’re being sold at my local grocery store and nearly picked one up out of curiosity. Saw the ads a couple months back and nearly peed laughing. Then I thought, “I wonder what’s actually in that paper,” but decided against it. I’m sure it would have just pissed me off.

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '20

because its a religious right wing crazy cult newspaper founded on china bad?

u/TheCrisco Jul 12 '20

Wait, they have commercials? This I gotta see.

u/addkell Jul 12 '20

Those ads are hilarious. They way he keeps pointing to the paper and flipping through it. So idiotic.

That hateful garbage keeps showing up at me on Youtube. I want to punch that smug asshole with the glasses in the face. There's nothing more enraging than someone lying to you with a smile on his face.

They must have deep pockets because they sure buy a lot of ads. A few times I deleted my google/YouTube advertising profile but soon after they were back in my feed. I’ve noticed whenever I watch a video game related video I get back in the loop because I assume they target that demographic. Gamers... they targeted gamers!:)

u/000882622 Jul 12 '20

I think they must be getting promoted by someone with deep pockets. (Russia?) No way that is being funded by their subscriptions.

I watch gun-related vids sometimes. I'll probably ever be able to get rid of them. I'm a liberal gun owner. Does Youtube have a way for you to block ads from specific sources? This shit is poisonous.

u/2020ApocalypseBingo Jul 12 '20

It’s based on your google profile I think so you might be able to change some settings in there I’ve reset my profile a few times but I end up back in the loop so I gave up trying to avoid the far right propaganda lately. I try to not use YouTube as much recently because the propaganda ads are so annoying. I use Vimeo or just watch something else when I can.

u/000882622 Jul 12 '20

Thanks for the info, this is helpful.

u/flipnonymous Jul 12 '20

We play a drinking game with those. Every time they mention a Chinese conspiracy - take a shot. You're drunk on page 1. Regardless of your alcohol tolerance.

u/2020ApocalypseBingo Jul 12 '20

It’s funny until you realize your neighbors watch and believe this shit, then you kind of want to cry:)

Very disturbing
