    Perhaps due to their material interests - being afraid of losing the audience.

    It has not escaped my notice that they have had more and more corporate sponsors on their videos lately. Once you go down that path you are simply forced to toe a certain line else your money tap will be turned off. And when you rely on monetizing your content to support yourself and your family you really have no choice. At that point they own you.

      JT recently ditched all sponsors. Not sure about the other two guys, I would’ve thought that with the Deprogram’s success they wouldn’t need to rely as much on sponsors, but I don’t know much about how content creators make a living. Still, I really don’t get it why they’re so lib and silent on this topic
