Chucke2009

[hddnis]

I watched one or two of his early videos and just didn't like him, so I never watched any after that.

In my opinion Chuckie has reached his breaking point with what is going on in this country. I doubt there is a person here who doesn't agree with some of his points.
Illegals voting, Illegals getting drivers licenses, illegals getting more in money and benefits that veterans.
Obama bringing in thousands od Somalians then they get together and elect a woman who married her brother to cheat the immigration laws.
Another leader that poses as an Indian to get benefits others denied.
Rich Hollywood parents scamming the system for their kids.
And the big one, what these people did to Trump by spying on him and getting away with it.

The bigger question if this stuff doesn't bother you - then why not?

I may not agree 100% with Chuckie but I give him credit for ringing the bell and standing by his morals.

All valid points. Remember after 9/11, you would be challenged to find a house that wasn't flying the American flag. What happened to our patriotic attitude. I don't know but something happened and it doesn't matter what we just need to fix it. I hold my tongue because it is senseless to get into arguments with extreme leftist people. I'll make my feeling heard in the voting booth.

My response won’t be as polished and thoughtful as others, but here it goes

I seem to be one of the few people that haven’t been watching him for years. I’m roughly his age and subscribed about 3 years ago when I just started getting into welding for myself (hobby). I was instantly drawn in by his information and entertainment value tied up together. I have never really been a “fan” of a celebrity of any kind but I pretty quickly became a “fan” of his.

In all honesty, he has been a huge positive influence in my life. I have watched most of his videos. I have become a better welder because of him and even dedicated a lot more of my time to working, developing my talents, and learning as much about mechanical repairs, tools, equipment, agriculture, and other things, as I can. And I can attribute a lot of that to him.

It’s been really disappointing to see him throw away everything he built. I looked forward to his videos every day.

I don’t disagree on some of his views about the indoctrination of children, the slippery slope of accepting homosexuality (ok that’s not exactly what he is saying but anyway...). The need to secure our borders and have better control over immigration... Anyway, where I stop agreeing with him is with his white supremacy and anti Jew comments. I’m interested in preserving our culture as Americans, and I think it’s important, but the color of the skin of those “practicing” that culture is pretty much irrelevant to me.

I’m not unsubscribing or getting really upset over it. I’m just disappointed. I’ll miss his content, his knowledge, life lessons, and so on.

As I saw someone else put it on another forum (not exact but close) “you don’t counter the extreme left by being extreme right”. I hope he realizes this some day and can continue on.

You darn tooten. I like everything you said but to be fair, you left out one group of people - the extreme right.
Like DerekF said “you don’t counter the extreme left by being extreme right”.

Well said... I fall pretty much in line with you... I'm a little older but appreciated his skills and his tackling a variety of projects.

Actually kind of stopped watching as he ventured into farming and didn't catch his ranting videos until made aware of them here. Watched a few and I'm disappointed as well... haven't been back.

 

[FTG-05]

You're painting with a rather large brush there....

Not IMO he isn't. Illegals >>> Veterans. It's about to get hot.

Like DerekF said 土ou don稚 counter the extreme left by being extreme right?

Well you have a point. But realistically the extreme left outnumbers the extreme right by 100 to 1.
If you look at what the democrats are trying to do regarding immigration, "free stuff" and their agenda as a whole, the extreme left pretty much describes their party's agenda.
The extreme right is a political faction at best...oddly enough it is they who get all the negative press. Their numbers are miniscule.
You may as well include the main stream media as part of the extreme left.

My memory on laying down good welds isn't what it was. I'm into a project where I especially need strong good looking beads. One of the first online instructors I've pulled up is that humble kid in Ohio who helped me brush up on my welding skills several years ago. I sure miss that kid.

 

[MoArk Willy]

Chucke2009 has given a lot of good welding advice. I have viewed his videos and his attitude and comical approach makes them fun to watch. And yes I think he is a very good welder.
I had not watched any of his political videos until it was brought up here. I watched some of it. Though I do not necessarily agree with his comments I know that he has the right to make them.
I will continue to watch his welding videos from time to time.....most likely I won't bother with the others.
I know many of us here are strong willed and have opinions that others do not agree with. So what?
That's the beauty of freedom. You can agree or disagree with anyone you want.
(At least he's not a liberal).

Amen. I disagree with some of his views, however I support his right to express them.

I’ll take an extreme right person over an extreme left person any day.

 

[the old grind]

.. realistically the extreme left outnumbers the extreme right by 100 to 1...

Some facts are difficult to disagree with, esp those rock-solid statistics and thoroughly vetted National Averages.

Good thing we boomers hid all the money before we had to share it with the young commies, eh?

 

[tomplum]

All these things being said, I don't know how a person's race or country of origin makes them less than I or anyone else.

Money’s safe and fine. My memory not so much...

 

[stuckmotor]

Back when Chucke was Chucke. He recommended a cutting fluid that I like and some Carbide burrs that I like. Both helped me out tremendously on Friday. I want the old Chucke back.
