I never knew about Jeff before, I see he has a ton of woke videos, watched some of those and the guy is on point on so many aspects. Have some of you followed him for a longer time and can share your opinion on the guy? He seems sincere.

I like his coronavirus videos and been watching them daily. However when he talking about the bible or Christianity it doesn't feel completely authentic.
His past is also troubling. I don't know all the details but there are accusations he was selling passports for several countries and then failing to deliver.

This guy is still around? I thought he fled to Mars after the Galt's Gulch disaster.
Six years ago, Berwick teamed with two guys named John Cobin and Ken Johnson and some Chileans to build a libertarian paradise in Chile. People bought small plots from them expecting a futuristic self contained community. Instead they found out that the water rights were never purchased, the land was never rezoned for small residential plots and some needed environmental permits were never completed. I'm not even sure that a single house was ever constructed. It quickly devolved into everyone accusing each other of being a fraud and lawsuits were thrown about.
Then there was his TDV Passports business. Basically, people were told that if they forked over thousands of dollars, they could get an extradited passport to a Latin American country of their choice or whatever. This scam was revealed when his Paraguayan agent was found running a fake passport workshop in her basement. I really don't know much more about his escapades more than that.

Listen to his viewpoints for an alternative perspective. His general anti-state outlook is helpful.
Don't do business with him.

I've been reading TDV for a little over a year.
I've actually done pretty well by them, but I got in when both gold and BTC were well priced last year to get into, so it was a bit of confirmation bias on my part.
I do believe the guy genuinely believes and practices what he preaches, and bet Anarchapulco is a great place to meet other red-pilled guys.
I've kind of just ignored the whole anarchist libertarian angle of everything, since I think that leads to just as much chaos as we are seeing on the streets in the US today, but from an economic analysis perspective I've found him very insightful.
But of course, a guy who does as much crazy shit as him probably has a few screws loose!

I've only seen his videos here, and the few I've watched have incorrect information that he must've known at the time but passed on anyways (pictures allegedly showing something from the riots today but are from some other event months ago which spread on Twitter and were quickly debunked, etc). Clickbait in video form a day or two after it's relevant anyways.
