I asked Status Coup CEO Jordan Chariton to come on my channel to talk about how YouTube has removed some of their videos. I noticed something in the chat I’ve seen before and I’d like your thoughts. First, let me preface by saying I purposefully invite people with different ideologies to converse because I don’t want an echo chamber. That said, it seems this can be very disruptive to subscribers who come assuming they will only hear what they like.

What would you do in my position? Just curious.

Trump’s executive order protecting glyphosate (which RFK Jr supports) is such a perfect example of how the American political system works, and one of the main reasons I became a farmer. Bayer (which acquired Monsanto in 2018) is getting sued into oblivion over claims glyphosate causes cancer, to the extent they’re paying out billions in losses and facing the real possibility of going bankrupt. Then all of a sudden, states like Georgia pass laws protecting glyphosate manufacturers from liability and the President passes a similar executive order in the name of national defense. Is this timing a coincidence? The big corporations in this country have direct influence on politicians in a way the average American can never compete - that is, unless we leave their system. We must go direct with farmers who use the kind of methods we want for our dinner. Even if we ban glyphosate, there are plenty of worse (yes, hard to believe!) chemicals waiting to take its place. There is no way out ...
