I don't know if I have the stomach to actually watch Beanie Man with my own eyes and I simply can't imagine how anyone can come away with this take unless you're on the side of the bad guys??? What the fuck

      But does he get money to act dumb or is he just dumb and then thinktanks give him money.

      Also he was a vlogger guy during occupy and it's depressing that occupy wallstreet did absolutely nothing.

        Theres a great article out there chronicling his storied career of failing upward into massive success. He's definitely a dumbass who happened upon the right niche at the right time, and started saying the right things to get absorbed into the growing online right-wing propaganda machine.

        Does it matter? The observable universe is the same anyway.

        He gets money to say the line, and the more he says the line the more money he gets.

        Now that he's figured out how to get paid to say the thing, slapping the feed bar as hard and fast as possible isn't dumb at all. It's a conditioned response that yields material benefits. He would be dumb if he said anything other than this.
