Oh absolutely I mean 90% of the producers of that sort of content are probably just soulless ghouls who want the money rather than actually believing the views their shitting out

I agree completely. A certain highly divisive airsoft content creator who portrays himself as a martyr and victim thrives financially off the negativity and hostility.

Just a twist on the same formula the press have been using for years, first ten pages are sensationalist doom & gloom, with any good news stories tucked away at the bottom of page 27, next to an ad for walk in baths lol.
Human nature feeds the beast unfortunately

It's not just content creators though. Both Facache and goontoob have recently been pushing some absolute bollocks I would never be interested in and keep doing it no matter how many times I block channels or tell them I'm not interested

Yeah like all those dreadful drop ship poppy t shirt companies popping up this time of year! The suckers, sorry general public, fall for it thinking its a quality product from veterans for a good cause, when in fact is Chinese crap churned out by th million and images are photoshopped or Ai product looks no where near as good.
It’s really ironic that people now have more computing power, than put man on the moon, in there each these days. Yet with al that power and internet access they never fact check anything, they just blindly beige it and share away!

AngryCops did a video about similar bullshit
They used to say stupidity is caused by ignorance, the internet has shown that to be wrong and idiots will believe any bullshit

Most of it is common sense; in public; dont wear camo - or atleast be subtle - personally on my way to games i tend to wear a black hoodie and dark green camo trousers and a baseball cap; nobody bats an eyelid.
In the past ive played games at Killhouse in the centre of leeds; ive carried pistols and a rifle on a bus in york, train from York to Leeds and then walked to the site and no one knew because they were concealed in an inconspicuous bag; no molle; no morale patches; no hard rifle case; just a holdall that looked like I was away for the weekend.
Once upon a time, I picked up 2 friends to take to the site for an evening game; one i was picking up from work at the Co-Op and the other from his house - simple.
First one - as he walked out of co-op he had the butt stock of his shotgun sticking out of his rucksack.
Second one - walked out of his house wearing a tac vest, belt, drop leg holster with pistol inside.
Safe to say I had very strong words with them both and that night spent the entire night expecting to see flashing blue lights - that thankfully never came.
I've been airsofting for nearly 20 years.
Keep your guns concealed at all times except at a site and dont wear tactical gear when youre not on site. You want to wear full camo when playing soldiers in the woods - thats perfectly acceptable; just dont wear it in tesco or McDonald's on the way there. SIMPLE.

I wear camo every day, as long as you don't have tac vests and stuff like that a normal camo pattern trousers or hoodies is fine, i have never been reported for wearing camo.
Anyone who gets scared from a bit of camo has other stuff they should be dealing with lol

I wear camo most days too but just trousers or top and have never had any problems, but you've got to admit wearing full camo in public does get you noticed (insert Alanis Morisette meme here) even without tac gear. I'm not saying everyone who sees someone in full camo is going to shit themselves, just that you'd stand out in a crowd.
Personally I always pack a spare shirt to change into incase it's too warm for a hoodie etc and as a plus it's more comfortable than a sweaty UBACS
