Then I am not sure what you are hoping to achieve with this kind of commentary. Why not just move on?

Should I not have shared the best podcast I have thus far found about CBDCs because it doesn't meet the ad hominem Google check? If that's the case, then that's a shame because a lot of good sources were swept up in COVID cancellation fever for no good reason.

Because the sources you're relying on that portray him as a conspiracy nut are the same ones that were cancelling every other person who had something to say about COVID that wasn't sanctioned by the CDC/NIH (Google).

Corbett's supposed crime that resulted in his cancellation was playing clips of Anthony Fauci making contradicting statements to the media days/weeks apart and turning it into a game of "simon says".

As I said in the parent comment (and as confirmed by the other commenter), he seems to present himself as a conspiracy theorist. One of the first search results was an AMA he did on r/conspiracy.

But you’re right, I’ll move on. I might even give the show a listen sometime. I just prefer looking at things from a more mainstream perspective first.
