Are we there yet?

Today, we discover why Wired.com scores 5 out of 10 in Propaganda Bingo!

Here's a copy of my Propaganda Bingo card so viewers and other video creators can play at home with their 'favourite' 'news' outlet:

They lose if you get a full house.

1) Article that bashes or trashes Trump without any substantiated evidence.

Are you a rich elitist bastard who has too money and too much time on their hands? Have you recently profiteered from war? Do you own lots of burly bodyguards, bulletproof cars, 10 foot high iron fences with electronic gates, CCTV, motion sensors, and even a panic room, with an immediate response time from the police? Do you hate the outside world and the poor? Then you too can get behind gun control laws and become the world's leading hypocrite!

Starring such hypocrites as:
Google, known for advocating the Syrian war (just don't mention the word 'gun').
Markiplier, who appears in countless videos and images depicting the casual nature of guns.
The entirety of the US government, who use the secret service, national guard and police to keep themselves safe.

And anyone else who happens to be rich, invests shitloads of money into personal security and then tells everyone else to disarm.

TL;DW: murder is a complex multi-faceted subject that isn't magically solved by writing a feel-good piece of legislation, and when there's a will to murder, people will always find a way.

I consider myself apolitical when it comes to such politics. I'm opposed to war, consider the American military to be particularly violent and destructive. That said, gun laws do not work, any more than a piece of legislation banning the US military from abusing other countries would actually stop it from becoming involved.

The ultimate goal isn't to get people to disarm by force (because in the short run, they resent you for it and feel unsafe, and in the long run, they keep the guns anyway), but to encourage them to adopt a peaceful stance in their personal beliefs. A person of peace could live in a house loaded with guns and never commit a single murder, but a person of violence could live in a house where everything is made of super-soft 'safety' materials... and still kill someone.

It's worth bearing in mind people who live in mental health units who end up committing suicide do so in an environment explicitly designed to stop people killing themselves (padded rooms, removal of any hooks etc where someone could hang themselves from, soft 'edges' etc), and these are people who are essentially living in a controlled jail. If you can't even stop the mentally ill from committing suicide, what chance have you got of stopping a population with a wide variety of tools at their disposal from not just killing themselves, but others?

Get realistic people. A piece of paper isn't going to solve anything.

Whilst I understand your position as to why you might think cryptocurrencies are an alternative to Paypal, I very politely disagree on the basis that when a person talks about alternatives, they generally mean something that provides a reasonably similar functionality without the associations, and conventional businesses are not in a place where they can just adopt cryptocurrencies, so I provide some (temporary) alternatives to Paypal and why people should switch. Still, your videos are excellent, and this video is merely pedantry, so keep up the good work.

I've noticed in a number of videos on BitChute, and probably as an overall growing trend, that people appear to be conflating various distinct economic and even political terms as being part and parcel of the same class of economics, for example, welfare being labelled socialism or a form of socialism, and free market capitalism being earmarked as a meritocracy when both by definition and real world example, they are neither.

I try to quickly explain the differences in this video, but I strongly encourage individuals to read the full blown and subtle differences of various types of economic systems and political systems. I believe you will find it's substantially more diverse than just 'socialism' or 'capitalism', and it's worth reading up so media outlets can't get one past you on the definitions or types simply because of cliches.

Been censored? YouTube purged you as part of their evil scheme? Take a walk through a thought experiment and see why you being censored means they've already lost.

I explain why the BitChute change is a good thing, but also explain why they should be cautious when adopting user suggestions (including mine!).

Thank you for listening BitChute!

I decided to cover two topics into one video (normally I would separate them out) in order to save time, but also to experiment to see if this is a workable format. This video, shock horror, is not audio only this time, although you're more than welcome to just listen.

Normally, the term Nazi is bandied about as a general accusation against people who simply disagree with you, but I do a verbal analysis as to why Antifa are basically like the brownshirts from Nazi Germany, who go around intimidating people with violence, hurling abuse, spewing propaganda and acting in a cult-like manner, even going so far as to never read their opposition's statements.

I also cover why the UK government's proposal regarding their AI blackbox censorship technology 'just for terrorists/extremists'(tm) will end up hurting the general public. And for clarity, I write software, and have built my own AI before, so I know their shortfalls all too well.

Timcast's videos (indirectly cited here as proof for this video):

Antifa sabotage audio systems, haven't read James Damore's memo, are unable to articulate any criticisms (Timcast also recounts how white Antifa people tell him - to quote his own words "a mixed race" person - that he is a white supremacist, which is the most bizarro thing I've ever heard), security guard discusses about regularity of death threats:

Innocent event organisers threatened, slandered, reported, harassed etc for hosting event that Antifa don't agree with:

I updated the Virgin Train advert to more accurately reflect what their service is actually like.

Fair use under parody laws, and arguably a criticism of how shoddily they run their service.

It's worth listening to this video because I propose an alternative to degrees for getting work that worked for me. Those who are too busy to watch the video (sad face) can see a very, very short summary write up at the bottom of this video descriptor.

Pedantry notes:

The following are a few examples of highly successful individuals whose success was not as a result of a degree, this isn't to suggest agreement with their moral or immoral behaviours or standpoints, but to show financial and career success isn't determined by educational qualifications:
J.K. Rowling - famous author, unemployed single mother when she became successful.
Alan Sugar - dropped out of secondary school to become an entrepreneur, became head of HSBC.
Richard Branson - started his career at 16, owns over 300 companies. Also runs a terrible train service.

I'm sure there will be some angry members of STEM insisting degrees are important: within scientific research, most research occurs in academia (most universities contain labs of which experiments are conducted in), which in my opinion constitutes as part of the circular education engine. For jobs not relating strictly to scientific research - engineering and medicine - knowledge and skills can be both obtained on the job, working from the ground up. Indeed, a lot of hospitals will offer to train healthcare workers or assistances, which is a 'foot in the door' role, and engineering companies will tend to hire apprentices to learn their particulars of the trade from scratch.

People who require specialist knowledge for very specialised job roles are, by default, excluding themselves from a wide variety of other job opportunities - even lateral ones, and requires a follow-through commitment that many people honestly do not have - that is, of course, assuming they pass such challenging and specialist courses, and have the finances to afford as such.

University degrees are essentially an 'IOU' that offers you a job and more money later, for a temporary loss now. Most forward planning individuals think this is a good trade, and from a strict logical comparison, it is: however, the IOU rarely delivers, and reality intrudes: the job you do get is often not what you want, and most employers will try to pay you under or below par even if you do get a job you do want. Ultimately, what most people plan to pay off in one or two years, becomes five, ten or twenty years of slowly repaying the debt.

When compared to an alternative - you gain experience for free, and the only payment is hard work and time, and there's no debt at the end - volunteering becomes a superior way to learn a particular job industry. The other advantage is, it does not require that you commit 3 or 4 years of your time, and shackle yourself with five or ten years worth of debt, to do so. I don't advocate permanently working for free, lets face it, it's basically voluntary slavery, but compared to paying someone large sums of cash to teach you half-assedly, it's a far better alternative.

I think a lot of people have been tricked into thinking a piece of paper that says they got a degree dictates their entire worth, when in reality you are worth everything, the degree is a worthless piece of paper at the end of the day. You're the one who goes out and learns, you're the one who applies their skills, you're the one who goes out and gets a job, you're the one with the talent. You do not need a piece of paper to prove who you are, you don't need it to get yourself a job, and you can most definitely do without the debt.

I produced this video because I feel like our younger generation are getting skewered advice from self-interested groups who only see degrees as the only viable option, when in reality there are many alternatives (volunteering, apprenticeships, applying for a role and then demonstrating a talent/responsibility to get promoted, prototyping and demonstration of a concept to a firm, self-employment, learning new skills that give you greater employability etc).

I've produced this video to highlight what worked better for me - which was volunteering, however it's worth noting you should be open minded to the opportunities that apply in your own situation, and follow whatever works best for you.

The media often tries to ignore crimes committed by migrants, and tells us we're all speaking 'hate speech' for talking about something that, fundamentally, is criminal activity. I explain why we can't ignore evil, regardless of who commits it.

A lot of people cite studies, but numerous flaws in the system regarding how they are started, financed, chosen, approved, retracted, unpublished, hidden behind paywalls away from scrunity by the public, or simply not highlighted to the public shows a fundamental issue with studies, and why you should always look beyond what people show you - a topic covered in this video.

We often hear from the media attacking or marginalising the cakeshop owner for their refusal to be coerced, but what are the negative end results of coercing someone to work for you? The consequences of such a decision reverberate far beyond the cry of so-called ending discrimination, and this video analyses why that is the case.

I had written out a detailed explanation here, but BitChute decided to freeze up on me so I lost what I wrote when I restarted. Shortstop:
1) BitChute, as a brandname, suggests it applies to all audiences, where-as SPKOUT suggests it's only really just those who are politically active
2) Lets Play'ers, and people with 'trivial', non-political active channels can make valid, truthful points too, so it should be a more universal name (IE BitChute)
3) SPKOUT focuses too much on an 'inherient' trait that social media platforms should have by default; the primary feature should be BitChute's flexibility to resist censorship of speech, not the whole 'lets speak out', and comes off as a political rather than a general platform.
4) The white/red scheme made BitChute look a bit like YouTube, which immediately suggests to people it's a viable alternative to youtube (and it is)
5) Yes, I'm aware you can change the theme, but the default theme should be the white/red/bright one.

I'm not going to leave because of the rebranding, but I think BitChute is unaware it's being successful precisely because it is BitChute (A P2P resistant model) and not 'SPKOUT' (A 'lets yell at everybody' platform). Even if they do the same things - brandnames create the first impressions on it's users.

There are only a few images - mockups for design purposes, and this video is primarily audio only.

If you like any of the ideas mentioned, feel free to bring this video to the attention of BitChute or encourage/suggest it's adoption.

Below is the 'rough' transcript I followed, however I went off-script through-out to cite examples/clarify points, so this is more for a design review perspective:

Hello, it's the Underdog here, and today, I want to talk to you about improvements to BitChute

Before we begin, I want to quickly emphasise this is primarily audio-only 'video', so feel free to do other things whilst listening.

BitChute has a number of excellent ideas, however there's a couple of ways it could greatly improve both it's user interface and design, and learn from the grevious mistakes of youtube.

One: Have the ability for video creators to specify what language their video is in, and add language based filtrations on search results.
Two: Allow logged in users to see the like/dislike ratio of a given video before clicking on it.
Three: The ability for both guests and registered users to click a small plus sign on video thumbnails, that adds it to a list or appends it to the current list of videos being viewed, kinda like a shopping cart.
Four: A micro searchbar in the top right of the video list on the right, that allows you to search for a new list of videos without leaving the current video you're watching.
Five: The ability for people to enable cryptocurrency mining on the video they are watching, which splits the proceeds in a three way fashion; some with bitchute, some with the video creator, and some with the video viewer, approximately a 33/33/33 split. Viewers can increase or decrease the ratio of how much they give to the video creator or themselves.
Six: The ability to specify automatic cryptocurrency mining for video creators that you are subscribed to, so when you visit their videoes, you can start throwing cryptocurrency their way the moment you start watching their videos.
Seven: Alternatively, add a 'supporter' option that allows you to explicitly support a given video creator with the cryptocurrency that you mine whilst watching their videos.
Eight: Allow video creators to specify cryptocurrency wallets of which to transfer the funds into.
Nine: Allow people who own credit on the site, to be able to donate that credit to video content creators.
Ten: Content creators should be allowed to disable the donation to their video page, for legal or ethical reasons, but can specify alternatives to donate to, for example, other video creators.
Eleven: a dedicated 'support this channel' page, that allows the content creator to specify ways of supporting that channel, as opposed to it being hidden or buried in the video descriptor.
Twelve: The ability to record inbrowser 'audio only' videos that don't carry any of the size overheads of a normal video, which both saves bandwidth, speeds up download times, and allows content creators the ability to create both audio podcasts and videos on the same site.
Thirteen: This one is controversial: The ability to add video creators to a personal blacklist, that prevents their videos from showing up in your feed anywhere, for example, allowing to you to block spammers or people who bulk produce low quality videos.

For the purposes of this video, I have supplied a mockup. I release these ideas copyright non-exclusively to BitChute, and verbally exclude them from being used on YouTube, Vimeo or any other video site without my explicit permission.

Looking at why calls for backdoors in encryption and devices are a bad idea. Contains a few graphic images depicting police brutality.

A very short video explaining, in the shortest way possible, why being anti-white is wrong.

This video uses exerpts of Martin Luther King Junior's work under criticism and fair commentary exemptions of copyright law, which have been shortened to the most relevant points as reasonably possible, and have been reframed in order to both prove a point and encourage unity. Original copyright is owned by the King Center and enforced through EMI, however I hope and believe that the King Center believes in the freedom of speech at a critical juncture in our time when rights are being oppressed, in order to encourage unity.

Taking a look at one of the UK's most expensive pet projects - Trident - I take a look at whether or not it's effective, represents value for money and is, most importantly of all, independent.

The US and UK governments regularly blame other countries for their own internal problems, we take a look at why they shouldn't blame other countries by looking at the WannaCry attack.

This discusses the topic of mass surveillance, security and exploit hoarding, and should be suitable in a workplace environment (especially one concerned with computer security).
