I swear, the moment I started subscribing to The Deprogram, and its hosts and some of the guests, YT started throwing Bencil Sharpener, Joe Brogan, and Lex into my feeds. I didn't dog into him too terribly much, but I just assumed I was seeing his videos pop up for the same reason I saw the other two.

The only fiction I read this year was Hyperion/Fall off Hyperion and the Old Man's War series. One was amazing (as it always has been on my multiple reads), and one was pretty ok.
Wikipedia sources are fairly old
A few of the sources are literally from 2023. But do go on, it certainly seems like you're here in good faith, right?

Many developments initially criticized as ghost cities did materialize into economically vibrant areas when given enough time to develop, such as Pudong, Zhujiang New Town, Zhengdong New Area, Tianducheng and malls such as the Golden Resources Mall and South China Mall.[15] While many developments failed to live up to initial lofty promises, most of them eventually became occupied when given enough time.[6][16]
Reporting in 2018, Shepard noted that "Today, China’s so-called ghost cities that were so prevalently showcased in 2013 and 2014 are no longer global intrigues. They have filled up to the point of being functioning, normal cities".[17]
Writing in 2023, academic and former UK diplomat Kerry Brown described the idea of Chinese ghost cities as a bandwagon popular in the 2010s which was shown to be a myth.[18]: 151-152
My apologies for attempting to provide you with the tools to answer your questions in the least biased way possible.
Does doing charity streams to raise over $200,000 for Ukrainian relief funds count as evidence? There's this cool Google machine that can answer all of your questions so you're not relying on random people online.
Justified in what? If you're talking about the Ukrainian invasion that's been going on for two years, no he does not.
I'll add to his resume, too. Destroyer of Andrew Tate, bane of the Bald and Fat (Fresh and Fit) "podcast".

Then you can check the sources listed in the article. You're not just supposed to take Wikipedia's word for it, but you are allowed to click on the links in the references section. So either you're not aware of this, or you're not making this argument in good faith. In either event, because looking at the several sources in the wiki article I provided seems like it's still not good enough for you, I get the feeling this conversation is going nowhere.
