The marketing team at Rumble.com is really innovating these days, getting people to switch over from Youtube.

I hadn't heard of rumble yet. But after reviewing it, of course this exists...

  I actually do use Rumble (there are some more controversial-but-also-left-leaning creators that got banned from YouTube that I like), but man the ads on there are insane. COVID conspiracy theories, vaccine "alternatives", political ads for obscure Republican candidates, stuff like that. Fortunately, at least for now there's not a lot of ads (I suspect that they can't find a lot of mainstream advertisers), so generally I only got to watch one of those ads before the video starts.

    I don't know - for example, here is a video of a couple of scientists who explain in detail how they have analyzed the vaccine contents and how authorities then have reacted to their complaints: https://rumble.com/v4n6hsn-analysis-on-covid-19-vaccines-performed-by-prof.-lorena-diblasi-and-dr.-mar.html https://rumble.com/v4n6hsn-analysis-on-covid-19-vaccines-per... Would you still call such content a conspiracy theory?

      Absolutely. The subtitles open with "so-called vaccine against COVID-19" and "with all this fraud that is which is being carried about by the WHO". These vaccines have been seriously studied for year and now billions of people have taken them. Safe enough, ok?

      I made it clear that these were the ads, not the direct videos. That said, the COVID vaccines are safe and saying otherwise is kind of intellectually dishonest. Just because you can find one video where they "analyzed the vaccine contents" doesn't discount all the research and sampling data that has been taken. If you haven't gotten the COVID vaccine, you probably should.

Everyone should be able to appreciate a dad joke like this... even if it was a bit shaky.

  It's hard to fault someone for slipping loose everyone once in a while
