To be fair, just because he's on Youtube doesn't mean he's a bad guy. It's not necessarily a good strategy to pull out of Youtube altogether, anyway.
Youtube is mainstream. More people use it regularly than Rumble or Bitchute. By that, I mean, more people who are deep into the indoctrination, and for people like them, while Youtube might have its own issues, it doesn't have nearly as controversial a reputation as alternatives do.
The issue is that the indoctrinated don't need a full on hard press attempt to break their worldview. That's just counterproductive, and it will make them dig their heels in that much harder. They need a softer approach, one that sparks questions or that introduces concepts in a non-politically charged way. The Why Files is a good medium for this, I think.
It explores topics, from the mundane to the secretive to the conspiratorial, in a way that presents all sides. Yes, it provides an argument against many topics that would be good to reaffirm, but if using the WF to introduce a concept that would be hard to digest, then this can be a good approach. The topic is covered in detail in a non-threatening way, and it prompts the viewer to actually think about it.
Aside from that, he's openly distrustful of the government, he regularly encourages hearing both sides out rather than just sticking to the one or to what you think to be the truth, and he encourages actual open mindedness.
I wouldn't say that he's bought out, like Kurzgetagt is, just that he's questioning. He's thorough, and he does his research.
If you do some research, you will find that while AJ lived in AZ during the pandemic, he fought against the mandates and lockdowns. He wrote politicians in the state and wrote an op-Ed in a local paper
He also mentions that there are things he is not allowed to discuss on YouTube and that he covers those topics on their podcast.
I'm sure he is getting his information from "official" sources. And even if he debunks, he's presenting enough info to interest some people enough so they can do their own research.
The animation and props and stop motion effects are all super nice touches for totally independent YouTube channels who are allowed to stay on YouTube without funding. How much production do those take? The custom t-shirt may not be expensive, but add to the bucket with the other professional looking production values.
I enjoy his shows. I find him interesting. But remember, he is still on youtube, why? He may not be as real as he appears.

I think he is one of the good ones.
All well and good. I still will watch his shows. But i wont trust him. His shows are informative and not a chore like some other videos.
He would talk about everything we want to hear and then “debunk” it
I'm sure he is getting his information from "official" sources. And even if he debunks, he's presenting enough info to interest some people enough so they can do their own research.
I don’t know my bf watch him but make him more sleep 💤

That talking fish is great.

Heckle is a funny touch to basically a lecture. He is good at what he does. I am just weary of his alignment
Considering the topic, I turned it off real fast. That was just what showed up in the first few minutes.
Hecklefish is the covert redpiller.
Ding, Ding Ding! Always a question to keep in the back of your mind. Why are they still allowed on youtube... ?
But I also REALLY like WF?.
