Richard Vobes the English Poot!
Posted: Thu Apr 06, 2023 3:13 pm
Richard Vobes is a new poot who lives in the UK with a newly revamped YouTube channel [https://www.youtube.com/@RichardVobes/videos]
Vobes's old channel “The Bald Explorer” produced entertaining tours of the English country side. But since November 0f 2022 Vobes has gone all conspiracy theory with his new “opinion channel”. It seems the old, non-opinion, channel didn’t bring in much money and its production was expensive and difficult.
Vobes new “method” is to take emails from his viewers regarding various conspiracy theories and then devote 15 minute, easily produced, talks on one of the theories. He’s figured out all he has to do is sit in a chair and repeat conspiracy theories back to the CTers and he’ll get more views and more money with less effort. Vobes never checks out the validity of the conspiracy theories and mindful of YouTube "strikes" he is careful to add "some people say" and "is it possible that?" qualifiers to his comments.
Vobes also interviews fellow conspiracy theorists whose theories he accepts uncritically.
His followers know exactly what he’s doing and in the comments section they dutifully fill in the gaps in his talks so as to complete whatever conspiracy theory Vobes is pretending to “just be asking about”. His followers regularly post in the comments section calling for the executions of British politicians and public officials.
Comments that point out the holes in his theories or just ask tough questions are frequently removed. Vobes lets his girl friend "The Lovely Julia" police the comments section. That way he can make the Trumpian claim that he never censors comments.
Richard Vobes and a collaborator, William Keat, have given themselves and the rest their like-minded mob the authority to criminalize behavior they deem contrary to the British Constitution
Yeah, that’s right, a lightweight YouTube guru and a wannabe legal expert have decreed that any government official, any member of parliament, any judge, any cop whom they and their phony flock deem to have violated the constitution is subject to criminal charges.
All Vobes and Keat have done is to borrow long discredited legal theories of sovereign citizens and freemen on the land.
Vobes has recently gone further down the rabbit hole. In a recent video he walks down walking near his home and theorizes that "the government" wants to keep everyone out of the country side.
His prediction is that an avian flu will be mysteriously introduced into the environment this May at which time the government will restrict people to the towns since the avian flu will be so virulent as to kill livestock, wild animals and any humans in the country side.
I guess he figures birds don't fly into towns and cities.
Vobes says this is being done so that that the government can herd everyone into towns where they can be more easily sprayed with chemical agents. Vobes picked this theory up from a fellow conspiracy theorists.
The avian flu conspiracy theory is at least a year old. So Vobes is well behind the times.
A fellow YouTuber who's in with Vobes says Vobes went to an all conspiracy theory format after his old travel format failed and he got turned down for a job as a "presenter" for a successful BBC science program
It seems it stuck in Vobe's craw that he was passed over because he didn't have a university degree.
Considering the BBC accent (most likely acquired), the ascots and the vests my guess is that Vobes has long aspired to be in the English upper class and is all butt hurt that well into middle age he's forced to scramble for YouTube money.
That's why there isn't a societal institution in the UK he doesn't rail against, Parliament, the Prime Minister, the health system, the media, big businesses. . .you name he's against 'em.
Anyway, get out out popcorn, folks, the show continues!
