alt Hacker NewsOk, had a chance to look at those. I'll tell you why they aren't very convincing. They are a third-party telling you what to think. The second article is 90% about RFK. Again GG wasn't critical enough of him for the author.
The podcast (so far, not heard the whole thing) is angry someone tried to make a non-judgemental documentary and/or interview.
Also, you mention Rumble without mentioning why he went elsewhere—censorship during Biden administration. These examples suggest a common lefty myopia.
Instead, I would have expected an article or video where GG directly supports a batshit position. Rather than a simple constitutional freedom of speech position where he allows an unsavory person airtime. At very least a direct link to the source material.

Many of the prominent people who went to rumble who got banned from YouTube were doing things like cryptocurrency pump and dumps, cyberbullying and severe targeted harassment with in person assault, targeted attacks and calls to violence, illegal money laundering... you know, crime
Crime stuff. YouTube kicked them because they're a legal liability for YouTube, not because mask wearing pronoun police tsk tsked and wagged a shame finger.
No. This is what a platform with lawyers does when they realize they're platforming crime.
Conservatives need to find a kind of conservatism that doesn't require them constantly running cover to defend obvious con artists, pedophiles, rapists and frauds as they go in and out of prison for things like sex trafficking.
Eject them from your movement like William Buckley did. Being known as the group that champions beating women, committing fraud and yelling slurs isn't a winning strategy.
It's like how libertarians need to get rid of those "age of consent" guys. Campaigning for making piddling children legal doesn't win...
Just my opinion
