That's PragerU in reverse, for those of you who hadn't noticed. And it's been long overdue for an anti-PragerU to appear online if I'm honest.

And it's here! There's a new YouTube channel called The Gravel Institute and its stated goal is to act as a counterbalance to the stream of right wing lies, disinformation and propaganda flooding the internet from PragerU. "Imagine a huge stream of lies that pours into every computer in America. Imagine it's disguised to look unbiased and packaged into slick videos. And imagine oil billionaires give them tens of millions of dollars each year to indoctrinate your friends, your family. well, that's PragerU". That's the start of their introductory video published on 28 September 2020, and I couldn't have described PragerU better myself. The channel is named after Senator Mike Gravel, who served in the Vietnam war: watch the first short video to get an idea of who this man is and what his values are. These are some of his words: "If my country is doing wrong, I want to criticize it and change it. If my country is doing the right thing, I want to support it."


End All Wars - Mike Gravel 2020

I'm not going to say too much in this post and rather let you watch the two videos released so far by this new leftist counterbalance to PragerU. Their titles are tantalizing enough to peak the interest of anyone who's politically engaged. The first one, Is "Big Government" Really the Problem?, deals with the right wing misconception that government infringes on our freedoms;


Is "Big Government" Really the Problem?

And the second one, Capitalism vs. Freedom, shows the real threat to our freedoms, namely the socioeconomic arrangement called capitalism that always and invariably ends in a tiny upper class of individuals who hold all the economic and political power. The problem is not government in itself, the problem is government in the hands of the oligarchs instead of the people.

The format of these Gravel Institute videos is exactly the same as PragerU's; approximately 5 minutes long and presented by well known public figures, only this time the presented information is correct and honest. I hope this channel can garner even a fraction of PragerU's success; that's going to be an uphill battle because it lacks the millions poured into PragerU by oil-billionaires. At the very least I hope you enjoy these first few videos, and I hope there's more to come.

'Victim mentality' is self pity .(the favorite place of the leftist to inhabit).
You can't find a leftist without a victim - think about it...

Envy ( plus abandonment issues) are the overriding pathology of the narcissistic, leftist, mentality.
Stay an infantalized adult, or not.
Reality won't bend to suit the ego.

Kill leftist ideology - kill victim mentality.
Be positive instead.

It's very sad to see that the selfish bullies of hive will just not give up with their incessant need to constantly target specific users on this platform only because they "don't agree with them". Not only that, but after shitting on the platform for more than two years (because of their own self pity and inadequacies - the very thing he accuses others of), they have even felt the need to make themselves at home in a community they wanted nothing to do with originally (I wonder why lol)....because the one they put all their eggs in, has faded away so they want to now try and hijack and spam it with their regurgitated garbage.

I though it was only "leftists" who behaved in that way and employed those infiltration tactics? Nope - any half intelligent person understands that any person, group or entity can employ those same tactics from any political leaning or ideology....and that's why it's used as a weapon in this way from all sides. Don't expect to hear the reality of that from their lips however.

You know he will not give up with his bullying tactics, so be prepared for the long long ride of complete disrespect of your freedom of speech...this is his normal tactics, and hes been doing it since the time he arrived on this platform. That's the typical closed mindedness of fake "free speech" advocates.

'I believe in free speech, unless it doesn't belong to me - because your opinion is obviously wrong, and I'm always right - so shut up and listen to me you ignorant leftist tool'.

This is exactly how these type of people think, which makes it laughably ironic that they are writing a whole series of posts on narcissism, while they are themselves looking for constant attention by spamming the same thing over and over again....I guess it's easy to write about themselves, and then point the finger and deflect their inadequacies elsewhere (just like some of his cowardly and snowflake like heroes on here)!

I guess he's just pretending that his articles on narcissism and entitlement are not a direct reflection of himself....which is the entire reason for the long and drawn out series and rants of other people thoughts while trying to take personal credit for them - nothing creative or original in any of it.

Have a look at how a real entitled narcissist operates.

Begging for tips and attention on Twitter is the very definition of a self pitying attention seeker and narcissist! I thought it was only the "leftists" who were entitled and wanted "free shit".

This is what I love about people like this and others who act like a cult and only see things from one side. They then project this to their followers and the world at large as being "free". 'I am free, but all those people over there want free shit, so please give me some free shit!

They can't even see their own hypocrisy and idiotic reflection of themselves while pointing fingers everywhere else - and then proceed to mock themselves in public by becoming a cartoon version of what they reject in theory.

There are many similar examples of this in the past....too many to list. But here is one more, just for the giggles.

You see? Ass-licking to 'important people' has become an attention seeking trait and a sport (quite a regular thing around here in general)....but don't you dare ask for any free shit Sir...that would make you a leftist who wants free shit. When they do it, they call it sharing only...LOL.


As I have mentioned previously - I don't care what your political ideology consists of, or what your general opinions are on any given issues may be. I just came here to defend your free speech and reject the constant bullying and targeting of your opinions.

If people like this are going to constantly bully and mock you publicly, then I will do the same on your behalf on a principled basis.

He's a sad individual indeed @palikari123, but I'm done pointing out his particular kind of pathetic. So I'm glad you still have the energy to do so 😁 To be clear though; don't feel obligated to do so on my behalf. This crybaby doesn't bother me at all and I simply ignore him. He'll know when he says something worth my while when and if I ever respond to his narrow-minded comments... I do feel honored by your coming to my defense though 🙏🏼
