Ian and Candace are not dumb. They’re actually quite smart. Devious, but smart. Their audience is dumb. And being smart, Ian and Candace know that their audience is dumb. And they are smart enough to understand they can exploit their dumb audiences, pretty much indefinitely. And they are damn good at it.

It’s incredible that you don’t notice that you’re on the side that has a marketing budget. The truth never has a marketing budget viva. You should really be better at figuring this stuff out by now.

It’s incredible that you don’t recognize how your perspective skews every aspect of your “analysis”. I am not on anyone’s side. I am not on anyone’s marketing budget. You view this as a “team” issue, and not a pursuit of the truth. You think I am on “team Zionist” - or whatever you want to call it. And you view yourself as being on a “team anti-Zionist”. The reality is that you were never looking for the truth. You were looking only to push your four gone conclusion. From the minute you said “…they murdered him in front of his family. Israel just shot themselves” - before Charlie’s body was even in the ground. You rely on the ignorance and bias of your audience, while cloaking yourself in “just asking questions”. “they murdered him in front of his family. Israel just shot themselves” is not a question. It was your conclusion from the beginning. And you will cram any two pieces together to make it fit. Even if you’re cramming a full metal jacket into a soft point. Another unfortunate reality is that you are not helping in any pursuit of the truth. You are in fact just as counterproductive as the “nobody died at Sandy Hook” crowd who pushed that theory because they “don’t trust the FBI”. Those people actually made it impossible to have meaningful discussion as to the true corruption and conspiracy that led it to Sandy Hook. Likewise, you actually make it more difficult to get to the truth. Because now, when people have legitimate questions as to who was on those discord chats, who radicalized Tyler… They get lump together with the same idiot, conspiracy, theorist, who think it was an exploding microphone. Or who think Israel did it, without providing the slightest shred of evidence to substantiate the claim. But since I have your attention, I will again ask you this question: What is your best piece of evidence to substantiate your statement that Israel, Netanyahu, or his government was involved in the Charlie Kirk assassination. You are, as always, welcome to come on the channel to discuss viva voce. But since I doubt you will accept that offer again, just answer that simple question: Give me your best piece of evidence that Israel, Netanyahu, or his government was involved in the Charlie Kirk assassination. I eagerly await an answer.

Sometimes it’s not dumb. Sometimes people believe what pundits say and simply didn’t watch the court proceedings. Judge asked was there video of the shooting. The answer was NO.

Maj, even the people complaining about the “inaccurate” description of the video in some people’s tweets agree that there was a video of the shot, but that it was zoomed out and not definitively Tyler. Not sure why the lawyer answered that way, but I don’t think it’s disputed that there’s a video of the moment. What is disputed is the clarity and whether or not it definitively shows that it was Tyler.

Interesting take. Not very wise. nitter.cf/thevivafrei/status/194…
Yup. I’m an idiot. Not only did I not use the right oil, I forgot to put the oil cap back on. Only minor inconvenience. Jiffy Lube down the street saved my butt. Live in a little over 30 minutes!

Really Frei neither of them matter. The fed narrative doesn’t add up at all. If they didn’t exist it wouldn’t fix how suspicious this is. We can safely presume the government is guilty of the most heinous shit always.

Don’t mean to burst your bubble Viva Aviv, but my IQ is quite high. I have several degrees, have close to 10 patents and have started multiple successful tech business delivering massive market value. Candace and Ian are Authentic. People see that and are Drawn to it. You, on the other half of the bagel, hwve decided to destroy your personal credibility by pushing an obvious clown narrative and openly lying to the American people. NEWSFLASH - we take treason seriously. And I don’t care if you are a Canuck. Treason it is.

Many of the same people who listen to them listen to you & Barnes, a-hole. And using pejoratives does not make your case, counselor.

It's a sad phenomenon: There are large audiences filled with people who overestimate their intelligence. They seem to be drawn to talking heads who offer esoteric and therefore 'privileged' knowledge. These people don't seem to be able to differentiate between profundity and superficial complexity. Charlatans leverage their mental defects by eliding the truth and compensating with magnetic narcissism. And apparently, it pays well. It only costs you your soul.

Actually I’d say you’re dumb. For calling an audience you’re trying to convince to come round to your argument, dumb.

Baron Coleman is also dumb? As are all the people who are stunned with the obvious corruption and inconsistencies in this investigation? Why are you making it about other influencers? The problem is the shoving of a very flawed narrative down all of our throats

All cult leaders with a committed following are also good performers. When one considers that some cults have been successful in convincing followers to commit suicide or heinous crimes including child sacrifice the Candace and Ian's cults make more sense.

Yeah they are exploiting their audience, clearly. I would not call their audience dumb, I would call their audience conspiracy addicts. I know a lot of smart people who have that problem. – at Wildwood Lake, TN

Disappointed in you, sir. Slandering over a preliminary hearing.. I wonder how our government is fucking us while we are distracted bickering and fighting. You can be part of the solution or part of the problem. This is PROBLEM behavior. DO BETTER.
