always backs up his arguments with facts and logic and evidence
thats a weird way of spelling "deluded hyperbole-laced chimpouts and persecution complex conspiracy theories that pander to NEETsocs who are afraid of wahmen."

You must be thinking of a completely different person then. This practically makes it clear that you haven't ever even really watched a Black Pigeon Speaks video.thats a weird way of spelling "deluded hyperbole-laced chimpouts and persecution complex conspiracy theories that pander to NEETsocs who are afraid of wahmen."
You're missing the main key here. 2016. How did BPS have such high quality in 2016? I haven't heard of Mouthy Buddha so I watched his stuff, if you go to his early videos (2016-early 2017)the editing is noticeable lower quality. That makes sense, nobody can start a youtube channel on their best note if they haven't done it before. But if you watch those old BPS videos theres specific animations for his words, high quality animations for every statistic he brings up and quality that exceeds both modern BPS and modern Mouthy Buddha. Mouthy Buddha uses lots of real life footage, but BPS uses footage he records from all over the world(Myanmar, UK, Canada, Japan, Thailand, etc). How does BPS afford to produce videos and travel around the world at the same time? I doubt he's bringing a laptop to edit videos around with him.As for him having high production values, there are other alt right Youtubers with high production values like Mouthy Buddha. Could it be that these are mainstream media alumni or people who were trained to work in mainstream media but broke away to make their own channels? If they have access to commercial libraries of stock footage that they can use in their videos to make them look more professional or glossy, they might even be moonlighting on the job.

But those libraries cost a lot of money
With that variety and quality of all of his stuff, I highly doubt it's just that one alone.
I always got the vibe he was just using preset stuff and scripts. It looks flashy on the surface, but its not expensive to pull off (few thousand dollars at most).After finding out about BPS's first channel, that weird travel channel thing, I just kinda assumed that he learned his video editing tricks by making those. A lot of the effects he uses in his videos seem to be pre-made effects anyway - you could probably buy them as some sort of production pack for Sony Vegas or whatever he uses.
However, I do remember that when his channel was initially blowing up, there were a few threads on him on /pol/ basically calling him kind of controlled opposition - that his high production values were coming from Soros money and his defeatist attitude about how the West was already doomed was made to demoralize the alt-right.
With a lot of these video makers they often made videos in other channel topics before striking gold. See Lacey Green, she was originally an atheist vlogger before doing videos on feminism.He definitely picked up editing skills from having previous experience making videos. I never really thought about it much, since I found his older channel. Could be deeper but I just apply Occam's Razer when it comes to internet exceptional individuals.
My guess would be that he is either a disgruntled mainstream media journalist who maintains his mainstream media contacts that he can outsource work to, possibly other disgruntled media people who agree with him and want to help him get his message out for a discount. The other possibility is that these are professional media people he pays to do work for him, but who don't want to be openly named as associates of his because they fear retaliation for being associated with an alt-right Youtube channel.
unsure about media conspiracy but they did have a CNN ireport account. Currently it is defunct.
I said:Answer to LSP: Thanks! Now up on the farms. Sorry for the delay, I was away. Couldn't any netizen create an account on iReport though? That's not really even a tie I guess.
LSP's community manager said:Yeah, it’s basically they review what you wrote and will make you a journalist if they like your blogs.
At least that’s how I understand it to be.
I said:Ok. Good to know


Probably. Hbomb already has a thread, Shaun doesn't have one yet though.
He was. Back when he was Edgy Sphinx he got roasted by the skeptics and quit the internet. Since he's come back he's been less of a sped, gained some composure, and has even warned one of his former skeptic associates (David Sherratt, formerly Spinosauruskin. Now an SJW while Edgy is now further right.) that he should stop acting like an idiot before we noticed him.
Funny thing is David already had a thread prior to Edgy's attempted warning, so it was already too late for Dave.
Anyway here is why the Pigeon is mad at Shaun and Kevin. He really wants these videos down because criticism triggers him.
cheers
I'm gonna press x to doubt since I've never seen it, but I could imagine something like that existing. He's a funny guy.I swear to fucking God there was a video floating around on /leftypol/ of this guy advertising love hotels in Japan.
Why were you on /leftypol/I swear to fucking God there was a video floating around on /leftypol/ of this guy advertising love hotels in Japan.
because it's less autistic than /pol/Why were you on /leftypol/
That still doesn't answer my question.because it's less autistic than /pol/
