I don't usually watch YouTube for news, but whenever I do, I like to watch Sean Foo's videos. I don't think he's a Marxist, but I like the quality of his videos. Unlike other news YouTubers he's somewhat smaller and more detailed in his uploads.

I'm asking if other users have watched his videos; what are your thoughts on his analysis of current events?

Do you have any YouTubers or videos you watch for news? I'd like to watch more ML YouTubers for news.

i've started this series on youtube named "The Anti Imperialism of Star Trek Deep Space Nine" and i learned that, once you subscribe and like a leftist channel & video that the algorithms start bombarding you with leftist videos and youtubers.

i feel like a alaskan bear during a salmon run trying to catch all the salmon it can before they all die off in mass a few days they've mated as i try to identify which youtuber to subscribe to and which video to click like button on as the algorithms keep showing me multiple new ones every day. lol

also: i find that melding (word play intended) in the little bits of theory that i can get from youtube alongside a life long passion; like i did for myself with star trek; makes me more eager to finish it and makes it kinda fun.
