Tim Pool

Tim Pool is a former VICE reporter and useful idiot who first gained notoriety reporting from the front lines of the Occupy Wall Street protests. Since then he has two YouTube channels, Tim Pool, and Timcast. He parrots conservative and alt-right talking points constantly, masquerading as a journalist with liberal leanings.

Centrism

Tim repeatedly reaffirms to his audience that he is just another run-of-the-mill centrist who is disgusted by the modern left, who wants to get to the objective truth.

On November 2, 2018, Tim tweeted

Social Liberals are center left.

I am a social liberal

I believe the progressive tax makes the most sense

I am for expanding civil liberties

I believe government should play a role in healthcare and education

I believe in progressive values and ensuring equality of opportunity

On January 24, 2019, Tim tweeted

plus if you want to technical, and much the chagrin of the far left, I am a leftist channel but am very critical of the far left.

Ive only ever advocated for left wing policies f[sic]

Conservative rhetoric

Despite his fair and balanced worldview, Tim has a habit of almost exclusively entertaining the right wing narrative. [examples needed]

Alt-right connections

As a proud and unbiased centrist, he hangs out with figures such as James Allsup, Brittany Pettibone, Baked Alaska, Mike Cernovich and Gavin McInnes.

Conspiracy theories

In a dashing display journalistic meticulousness, Tim quickly jumped to push Jacob Wohl’s false rape accusation towards Robert Mueller (until it spectacularly fell apart).
