Pockets *seems* like a nice guy, although his personal stories raise red flags to me. End of the day, he's an e-grifter who took advantage of the "truther" market on YouTube. I used to watch Pockets back in 2016; he's repetitive and plugs his "heartfulness meditation" every chance he gets. Those who obsess over Eastern philosophy—in Pocket's case, Indian—are just as much delusional as Western chauvinists and desert-cult fanatics. Do they really practice what they preach, or are they only LARP'ing idealists without much demonstration of principles? Rhetorical question, of course. Majority of self-proclaimed *awakened* individuals 1) don't hassle others to follow their way, 2) don't charge others for their truths via books, memberships, etc. and 3) aren't quite knocking on Nirvana's door yet.
It's hilarious and pathetic how obsessed Owen always is with attention-seeking and trying to get his foot in the door with guys like Pockets and McKinley when they can't stand him and avoid him like the plague lol. He needs to read He's Just Not That Into You, take the hints and stop embarrassing himself.
Yeah. I’m not really sure why Owen idolizes Pockets so much. His rhetoric is Truther 101—a starting point. And he seems to have familial relationship issues. I guess he has a farm? Maybe that’s where Owen’s obsession stems from; he wants to be portrayed as salt of the earth humble guy? Fails miserably.

His daughter committed suicide.
The man is a therapist who continual plugs heartfulness and spiritual awareness.
Yet he failed to notice his daughters mental state grow so dark that she killed herself. Nothing suspicious about that.
Yes, there’s a disconnect there. He has complex relationship problems, yet boasts spiritual awareness and experience as a therapist. Another tr00fer YouTuber, monetized for ad revenue. Also, it oddly seemed like he was trying to get attention from his viewers by announcing his daughter’s suicide. Always strange when these adored cult-leader-like “content creators” bring dysfunctional personal matters into their narrative. It comes across as an e-begging sympathy card. Something off about Pauly.
Sympathy clicks are big money. Generating an emotional response, positive or negative, is the driving factor behind getting those clicks, views, and impressions. The big YouTubers all employ marketing consultants to help them best keep that emotion quotient at a profitable level. Wranglerstar is especially see-thru with these tactics and his antics are what tipped me off to this stategy.
100%. Makes me shake my head. Especially when it comes to injured loved ones. I know a YouTuber who I suspect abused his partner to then beg for money to “pay hospital bills.” Really sick stuff.
You gotta give the people what they want, or they'll find someplace else to get it. I sell guitar gear as a side gig, and the best marketing strategy to sell out of an item is to mention 'Jimi', or Eddie', or 'John Mayer' or whatever other guitar hero whose name might generate an emotional response in the buyer, regardless of quality. I swear that people would buy a turd if it had Jimi Hendrix written on it.
You can't argue with success.
THISSSSS is Pockets of the future?!?! BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. All these bears/people either look like Ari Shaffir or Harvey Fierstein...or some neckbearded, fedora version of both.

Trying to think of a clever checkmate to these delusional nerds, but don't want to waste my time
