I’m only an hour into this person’s 4 hour(!) review/criticism of the Star Wars hotel and am baffled at how poorly this was handled.

    Jenny Nicholson has over 53k monthly Patreon subscribers, paying at least $2 a month, some up to $25 (do that math, it’s astounding). She’s the 7th largest Patreon subscriber base on the platform. She’s well exceeded anything Ralph Nader has ever done, professionally.

      This may be the dumbest thing I’ve ever read. While I like her content it’s about theme parks and cartoons. Nader helped get us safer cars, safer work places, safer water, FOIA, and 9/11 + 2 major decades long wars. When Jenny’s career leads us to trillions of spending attacking countries that weren’t actually responsible for attacking us she can say she’s on Nader’s level.

        She posts like once year on her YouTube but patrons get monthly bonus ramble vids.

        Edit: and I was an early bird so it’s only $1/mo for me

      I’m sorry, I wasn’t clear in my original post, I wasn’t speaking of audience or earnings I was speaking of impactfulness and usefulness. But to be clear I find zero fault in her end products and every new video showcases how her topics and methodologies are maturing. She’s killing it.

      I absolutely believe she is capable of producing products that get the US Congress involved and laws repealed or passed.

      In fact my only critique of her is that she is still on Twitter.

      Has she gotten laws passed that make cars safer too?

      Ralph Nader has literally saved thousands (if not millions) of lives.
