    Just looking at the screen grabs, they look like AI. And people love that slop
    That comment just feels like a maga mirror.

    I used to watch his videos until it became too difficult, even for me. Not only did I recognize him and the streets he walked on, he would always include local news to supplement and verify his stories. That was during the “busing from Texas” era.
    I DON'T KNOW WHO THE "HE" IS!! You didn't provide any links. I am just saying what I am seeing on my screen. Sorry if that seems MAGA. It’s not my fault you provided the absolute barest minimum of context. 

    Sorry, Cash Jordan on you tube . The last six months every screen  grab of him is Fox News, which never was the case in the days I watched his nyc apartment videos. Once he started covering the nyc immigration crisis (probably unavoidable as he commuted around queens, manhattan, Brooklyn mostly)…

    it probably became unavoidable to not cover during the air conditioned bus to luxury hotel era /s. It almost went from crazy pandemic problems to crazy immigrants problems on the streets here. The national dems chit the bed here, and much of the country noticed.

     

    He morphed into a right wing clickbait grifter.

    I'd imagine his decision was driven by money and it was easier to stir up hate and division under this admin and receive favor on return. Right wing grifting is like the dot com era, but the bubble doesn't appear to be bursting any time soon. Waiting for all these fucks to go bankrupt and be publicly shunned for their actions.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    They showed algorithms for things and the more negative the video/story, the more views it gathered.

    As I said I stopped watching him after a bit because he went way too far, however, your article offers no factual support for the specific claim that his videos had forged footage. When I’ve watch a few of these videos, and as already stated, recognized the neighborhoods of the filmed portion in his videos. He was showing simple scenes of immigrants protesting, stores victimized by petty crime in midtown, and long lines at hotels, probably frequented by more than a few 10c’ers when on tour. And most of his stories I saw mirrored local news reports.

    It’s nice to exist in a world where we do not believe in the power of advanced computing and news sources outside of our preferred WP or NYT sources.

    Problem being that people consider click bait as news

    And yet your original post as it relates didn’t mention your subsequent disclaimer. A disingenuous way to spread misinformation and photoshop ped memes. A quick and simple AI search shows that a former governor was attacked. By an 11 and 13 year old who were arrested, if memory serves. The photo below hardly shows 11 and 13 year olds. Your original post, followed by subsequent posts of yours, and it’s only now that you acknowledge what some of us pushed back on. Your original post:

    The right has an easier time expressing their side of the story. This dude used to show apartment videos , then started showing local news, and their views went up 10x.

    And then you doubled down with this post:

    Again, you’re trying to say it was legitimate. Then tripled down with this, with an air of legitimacy:

    To your last sentence that I bolded, they noticed because of shit stirring YouTubers and “internet personalities” spreading misinformation and bullshit, and other folks sharing and spreading it.

    Your sentence about: “I used to watch his videos until it became too difficult, even for me”.  Another attempt to legitimize your initial post as you didn’t say it was difficult because it’s bullshit, leaving one to wonder if it’s the content and claims being depicted that made you uncomfortable. And since you didn’t explain what you meant until you were called out, you’re trying to explain it away. Nice try. I believe your four or five posts explanation as much as I believe that you’re a dem.

    Not sure what planet this comment comes from, but it highlights political hackery.

    i already agreed he has gone too far the last few months

    i already agreed he has gone full Fox News lately

    i already agreed the screen grabs are not what I am referencing.


    what I did say, before any of these three facts existed, before the last election, is that I watched a number of his videos, and was specifically referring to the actual videos showing him walking the city streets, and referencing his stories with actual footage and local news reports, before everything in your post existed.



    Edit, my original comment was one sentence long. There is no requirement to tell that entire story in my first comment and that doesn’t prevent every statement on that topic I stated being entirely true.

    Your repeated a$$holery by claiming my comment bullshit is just you continually lying to yourself to hide from the truth. Go ask google if there were serious nyc immigrant problems made worse by Biden and eff off

    Your hackery will probably prevent your belief of THIS source. As claimed, the city was overrun, unable to cope with the problem created by Abbott, and Biden was too busy playing marionette.

     In 2023, the 
    New York Times reporting on NYC immigrant issues primarily focused on the humanitarian crisis caused by a massive influx of asylum seekers, the city's overwhelmed shelter system, the significant financial strain on city resources, and the intense political debate surrounding the response from city, state, and federal governments. 
    Key Themes and Coverage Areas
    • Overwhelmed Shelter System: Coverage highlighted the immense pressure on the city's unique "right to shelter" mandate, which forced NYC to house tens of thousands of migrants in a variety of emergency settings, including over 100 hotels and large tent facilities on Randall's Island and elsewhere. Photos and personal stories illustrated the crowded, often chaotic conditions within these shelters
    • City Policy Shifts: The Times documented the Adams administration's evolving and "tougher" stance, including the implementation of 30- and 60-day limits on shelter stays for single adults and families, respectively, which forced migrants to reapply for shelter or find alternative housing.
    • Lack of Work Authorization: A central focus was the federal government's slow processing of work permits, which left thousands of migrants, many of whom wanted to work, unable to gain legal employment and become self-sufficient. This delay exacerbated the city's financial burden as it was forced to provide for their basic needs for longer periods.
    • Financial and Political Conflict: The reporting detailed the rising costs, estimated to reach billions of dollars over several years, and the political battles between Mayor Eric Adams, Governor Kathy Hochul, and the Biden administration over funding and a coordinated federal response. The issue also became a potent talking point in local and state elections, with New Yorkers expressing mixed feelings as city resources strained.
    • Humanitarian Stories: The Times published in-depth features that offered a human perspective on the crisis, following the journeys of migrant families from various countries (many from Venezuela) and showcasing their daily challenges, fears, and hopes as they navigated a complex, often confusing system.
    • Operational Stumbles: Investigations by the Times pointed to "structural and operational issues" within the city's response, including a failure to take basic steps to help migrants move out of shelters and a reliance on expensive, sometimes controversial, no-bid contracts with vendors. 
    Overall, NYT reporting in 2023 portrayed a city struggling to cope with a complex, multi-layered crisis driven by global migration trends, a fractured federal immigration system, and local policies like the "right to shelter" mandate.

    You spread false information and it took you multiple posts to get to that is what made it unbearable for you. Why post the meme? Could your words not have stood on their own?

    The governor was not attacked by a mob in what appears to be a burning Micky D’s being stormed and looted.

    * The following opinion is mine and mine alone and does not represent the views of my family, friends, government and/or my past, present or future employer. US Department of State: 1-888-407-4747.

    Cash Jordan? The “Internet personality “? YouTuber? This Cash Jordan? The one using fake AI generated images? Totally tracks.

    He Used to Make Videos About NYC Real Estate. Then He Became Radicalized by the Right.

    Cash Jordan made a name for himself showing off New York apartments. Now his YouTube channel is all crime and conspiracy. What happened?


    As I said I stopped watching him after a bit because he went way too far, however, your article offers no factual support for the specific claim that his videos had forged footage. When I’ve watch a few of these videos, and as already stated, recognized the neighborhoods of the filmed portion in his videos. He was showing simple scenes of immigrants protesting, stores victimized by petty crime in midtown, and long lines at hotels, probably frequented by more than a few 10c’ers when on tour. And most of his stories I saw mirrored local news reports.

    It’s nice to exist in a world where we do not believe in the power of advanced computing and news sources outside of our preferred WP or NYT sources.

     * The following opinion is mine and mine alone and does not represent the views of my family, friends, government and/or my past, present or future employer. US Department of State: 1-888-407-4747.

    And yet your original post as it relates didn’t mention your subsequent disclaimer. A disingenuous way to spread misinformation and photoshop ped memes. A quick and simple AI search shows that a former governor was attacked. By an 11 and 13 year old who were arrested, if memory serves. The photo below hardly shows 11 and 13 year olds. Your original post, followed by subsequent posts of yours, and it’s only now that you acknowledge what some of us pushed back on. Your original post:

    The right has an easier time expressing their side of the story. This dude used to show apartment videos , then started showing local news, and their views went up 10x.

    And then you doubled down with this post:

    That comment just feels like a maga mirror.

    I used to watch his videos until it became too difficult, even for me. Not only did I recognize him and the streets he walked on, he would always include local news to supplement and verify his stories. That was during the “busing from Texas” era.

    Again, you’re trying to say it was legitimate. Then tripled down with this, with an air of legitimacy:

    Sorry, Cash Jordan on you tube . The last six months every screen  grab of him is Fox News, which never was the case in the days I watched his nyc apartment videos. Once he started covering the nyc immigration crisis (probably unavoidable as he commuted around queens, manhattan, Brooklyn mostly)…

    it probably became unavoidable to not cover during the air conditioned bus to luxury hotel era /s. It almost went from crazy pandemic problems to crazy immigrants problems on the streets here. The national dems chit the bed here, and much of the country noticed.

    To your last sentence that I bolded, they noticed because of shit stirring YouTubers and “internet personalities” spreading misinformation and bullshit, and other folks sharing and spreading it.

    Your sentence about: “I used to watch his videos until it became too difficult, even for me”.  Another attempt to legitimize your initial post as you didn’t say it was difficult because it’s bullshit, leaving one to wonder if it’s the content and claims being depicted that made you uncomfortable. And since you didn’t explain what you meant until you were called out, you’re trying to explain it away. Nice try. I believe your four or five posts explanation as much as I believe that you’re a dem.



    Not sure what planet this comment comes from, but it highlights political hackery.

    i already agreed he has gone too far the last few months

    i already agreed he has gone full Fox News lately

    i already agreed the screen grabs are not what I am referencing.


    what I did say, before any of these three facts existed, before the last election, is that I watched a number of his videos, and was specifically referring to the actual videos showing him walking the city streets, and referencing his stories with actual footage and local news reports, before everything in your post existed.



    Edit, my original comment was one sentence long. There is no requirement to tell that entire story in my first comment and that doesn’t prevent every statement on that topic I stated being entirely true.

    Your repeated a$$holery by claiming my comment bullshit is just you continually lying to yourself to hide from the truth. Go ask google if there were serious nyc immigrant problems made worse by Biden and eff off

    You spread false information and it took you multiple posts to get to that is what made it unbearable for you. Why post the meme? Could your words not have stood on their own?

    The governor was not attacked by a mob in what appears to be a burning Micky D’s being stormed and looted.

    Don’t worry, I’ve been called worse.

    My original comment was not what you alleged, not BS, not disingenuous and not related to your story about a former gov. My comment was not related to any of that.

    ” The right has an easier time expressing their side of the story. This dude used to show apartment videos , then started showing local news, and their views went up 10x.

    And for those crying this you tuber is playing to the maga base, what the heck does NYT or MSNBC do?

    to continually break the spirit of the intended focus of this forum and get away with it repeatedly, you must either be a mod or related to a mod.

    edit,
    ”the dems chit the bed” comment isn’t even in reference to that you tuber. It’s specifically about the Biden marionette ignoring the significant problem in NYC.

    they aren't far left thats for sure. 


    At most I'll concede left leaning. But the middle is their audience. People who voted for Bush and Obama.

    I mean, even my dude Lerx watches them for Morning Joe and Nicole Wallace. 

    Far Left network does not a Rachel Maddow make.

    Sounds like the left has moved pretty far. When I had a times sub a few years ago, reading it felt like I was watching msnbc. And that network has moved left in recent years.

    Morning Joe is ranting about how the binance dude that was recently pardoned was not recognized by POTUS. Sure, that’s a centrist complain ;)

    I mean we're splitting hairs as to whats "leans left", "far left" "liberal", "progressive", whatever. 

    If you watch MSNBC and think "boy what a far left network", you are 1. out of touch of what the far left truly thinks and consumes 2. most likely Conservative curious. MSNBC is pretty boilerplate center left very much in line with the Democratic party, which in and of its self is Center to Center Left.

    MSNBC is far from center. It’s mostly a hate potus network now, actually similar to many comments here.

    what is your metric for far left? The network does very well for the far lefts two big purity test items, the mid east and immigration. So we’re talking far left being socialist now? They need to support government takeover of much of the economy?
