The Completely Politics-Free Video (The Jimquisition)

I've been told my videos are too political and that I should just stick to games. Usually, I ignore such strange criticisms, but after one of the most grueling weeks in American politics, maybe we should try it.   

Let's give the totally apolitical what they want, and do an episode of the Jimquisition completely devoid of such contentious ideas or biases. It can totally be done. Probably. Maybe.

Kids in cages? Seriously? Weak. It’s been shown a thousand fucking times over that it was an Obama/BIDEN policy, and it was only continued during Trump’s term because Dems blocked his attempts to massively increase funding to handle the record numbers of illegal immigrants trying to cross the border. Maybe you should just stick to games, you smug twat. And your crack about people who don’t follow science being in charge of the pandemic: this is too dumb a remark, however you phrased it, to merit a response. Not wasting any more time on you and your smug, ignorant views. Had you said something insightful that stung, I’d lick my wounds and keep watching. But no, you’re just parroting Dem lies. Bye forever.

To say that this is 'peak Jim Sterling' sounds somehow sarcastic, but honestly: this video is a staggering achievement and the apotheosis of what the Jimquisition has been doing these last few years. Thank God for you, Jim. It's not easy to say the kind of things you say on the internet -- and to keep saying them for as long as they need to be repeated -- but I am so, so glad you're doing it =)

One of the things I really appreciate about this channel is that the political aspect isn't ignored.

Pro tip: if you dress in blackface and dance for labor hours then it isn't racist. You are putting on a literal minstrel show. It is horrific to be sure but the horror isn't isn't the shoe polish and huge red lips and dimples but in the throwback to minstrel shows. I would love to see a disgusted gamestop employee make a disgusting mockery of that jewel of American history complete with an organ grinder and watch people flip out and then realize why the request is do damn offensive. Oh yeah, and Reagan showering praise on secret military operations against bad people during the cold war, thus turning it into a hot war, is absolutely not political.

That was pretty funny, though I don't think Ubisoft genuinely knew about Helen's views as they used an outside producer to handle the podcasts in the game, though they still should've overseen the process themselves as that's what happens what you let others do the vetting for you.

Not "bootlicking" at all dumbass troll, that's pretty much exactly what I said, go back to listening to fake-progressive chuds like Peter Coffin and Aimee Terese loser. I'm not one of those fanboys who won't criticize Ubisoft execs for the shitty things they've done, boy I bet you feel REALLY fucking stupid now for making baseless assumptions about me eh?

Mr Sterling, you should put less games industry in your very interesting politics videos. Because talking about the gamesindustry sours us non-gamers. Tut...as the french say...tut.

You're right about politics, people don't consider it politics if it agrees with their views or if it's part of the status quo.

Jim, how did you get Adam Sandler to lend his voice for the animated bit?

I'm disappointed, this wasn't political enough!

This is your best video to date, I've watched it twice and there is just so much going on. Censoring was so funny, gamestop is disgusting. But that middle bit was the best part! So questioning l....And then surprise baby boomboom XD but in all serious this was awesome
