Youtube multi-millionaire British troon Oliver Lennard complains about losing Patreon subscribers to Palestine Derangement Syndrome, begs his trannie chasers to join his Patreon:

Please do sign up to the Philosophy Tube Patreon if you can! Patrons pledges go into a separate bank account (not my personal one) that gives the show its budget. It’s been slipping a bit lately, which is unfortunate cause the show depends on crowdfunding, especially to pay the crew who work super hard on it. It also goes on things like subtitles in multiple languages to make the show accessible. So sign up here if you can spare a couple of dollars a month!

This guy already has 5000+ pay pig trannie chasers on Patreon but that's not still enough for this greedy Youtube multi-millionaire troon, who let's not forget also has a professional career as a mainstream actor on top of his Youtube channel. If you need more money Oliver, why don't you just do some more acting gigs? Oh, right, because as a LARPer your whole life is an act right now, LMAOOO! I guess Hollywood no longer wants to hire troons to steal the jobs from female actresses.

There are several comments underneath that Patreon e-begging post from people posting "Free Palestine", with some of them claiming that he hasn't done enough to address the War in Ghaza, which was the same criticism levelled at Nyk.

This comment claims that Oliver earns an estimated average of $30k per month. No idea how they reached that number but if this is true, then Oliver should give away all his Patreon money to Hamas, sorry, I mean Palestinians e-begging on GFM, and go live in a box in the streets like a regular troon.

Oliver posted this financial breakdown on Patreon, once again begging his trannie chasers to join to make up for the chasers he lost to PDS. He claims he made less money in 2025: "The Patreon had a net loss of 592 paid members (which isn't ideal but is fewer than last year!)"

It's time for the end-of-year look at how Philosophy Tube is doing financially, artistically, and spiritually.
As always this post is free and public for maximum transparency.

The Channel
The channel gained 63,700 subscribers, which is fewer than last year. I'm not especially worried by this because subscribers coninue to mean less and less on YouTube. If you like a video, any video, YouTube will show you more similar to it, and even if you are subscribed to a channel there's no guarantee YouTube will show its videos to you. We're becoming more like TikTok in that regard. So I'm less focused on subscribers as a metric of overall health.

We got about 8 million views, which is lovely! Views don't mean much to me, I care more about the creative work, but it's nice to know so many people care.

The Patreon had a net loss of 592 paid members (which isn't ideal but is fewer than last year!) and gained 2,247 free members.

HELLO FREE MEMBERS OF THE PATREON. WOULD YOU PRETTY PLEASE BECOME PAID MEMBERS AT THE LOWEST TIER OF $2 A MONTH??? IF ALL OF YOU DID THAT IT WOULD MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE!

Bluesky and Instagram continue to be strong social media presences for us, though weirdly the majority of the external traffic directed to Philosophy Tube comes from Discord and Whatsapp, neither of which I have an organised presence on. I did in fact delete the Philosophy Tube Facebook page, as I said I would last year, and I don't miss it! My social media manager continues to upload clips of the show to TikTok, but I personally hardly use it. As I said last year, it doesn't appear to translate to any useful metrics.

I did have one big harassment campaign directed against me this year, which was unpleasant, but we got through it. I used the occasion to make a big donation to Medical Aid for Palestinians, so out of evil cometh good.

Nebula continues to do well. I don't have access to view counts and watchtime in front of me and they don't mean much compared to my conversion rate - the number of Nebula subscriptions I sell - which is expressed in my sponsorship rate (the amount Nebula sponsor me to plug them at the end of each video). That rate is lower compared to last year, but still good enough to keep the show's budget healthy. I'm still committed to my policy of not accepting any sponsorships but Nebula; you won't see me doing Raid: Shadow Legends sponsorships in 2026! Even though it means I'm making less money than I could, I stand by Nebula as a product and I know the people running it, and that trust is important.

Episodes of the Show
We made six episodes this year, two of which broke a million views. Two of them sadly didn't perform as well: Rationalising Colonialism - How the US Stole Indigenous American Land and Having Kids Vs Child Free: What's the Right Choice? Both undercooked.

I experimented a lot with style, with mixed results. I wanted to make a couple of shorter videos, the Nietzche pair, and those did quite well. I did one very stripped back episode, the Jefferson one, which underperformed, and a couple of all-out massive productions which did middling. Hard to say what the "right" style is. A well-performing video is harder and harder to predict and the ones you think will soar don't always.

I also made a lot more YouTube shorts, mostly unplanned shitposts, and some of those did really well. In total my shorts got 662,000 views! If you're curious, the total ad revenue from them was $140, lmao. It's unclear how (or if) shorts views translate into main channel views, Patreon subscriptions, or Nebula conversions, but they are fun so I'll probably keep making them in 2026.

Finances
Overall the channel made money this year and continues to pay for itself, which is nice! It made slightly less money than last year for a few reasons.

Patreon shrinkage is part of it. The most common reason for cancelled Patreon subscriptions is 'My financial situation changed,' i.e. people can't afford to pledge anymore. Unfortunately I don't see this improving anytime soon: we're still in a huge economic downturn.

I did make one big error this year, which was in Rationalising Colonialism - How the US Stole Indigenous American Land. I wont rehash the whole thing (you can watch the post-mortem stream if you need a reminder). I donated all the advertising money for that episode to the American Indian College Fund, which did create a blip on the balance sheet.

The channel doesn't make much from advertising at the best of times, but we made signigicantly less this year than last year. This is for a few factors, slightly fewer views being one I think. Despite that, I remain committed to my policy of not haivng mid-roll ads on my content in 2026. I don't care if I could be making more money; mid-roll ads are annoying!

The general state of the creator economy has been very rocky this year. Back in August there was a meltdown where many channels views' suddenly tanked. I've heard this was due to certain AdBlock software meaning view counts don't get updated; or maybe some back-end changes to YouTube's age-gating system? Nobody seems to know for sure. As I say, advertising money doesn't usually add up to much for us anyway, but if Adblockers are messing with view counts that does start to affect how much the channel gets recommended to people. With that in mind...

If you watch my content on YouTube, and you use AdBlock, and you can't get Nebula, would you please join the Patreon at the lowest tier, $2 a month?

In general though, Philosophy Tube is still pretty healthy. The biggest costs continue to be the crew, who are rightly well paid for their work. I found some ways to save on production this year with block filming and not hiring Brian the stylist for every episode. I also managed to eliminate a big line from the budget: I had been paying thousands of dollars to have the show subtitled in German and Brazilian Portuguese, and towards the end of the year I noticed nobody was using them so I quietly stopped. Nobody has complained, so that'll save about a thousand dollars per episode going forward.

Income to Philosophy Tube comes from patrons, from advertising, and from Nebula sponsorships. This year Patreon was the biggest slice, followed by Nebula, followed (distantly) by Advertising.

If you superchat me during a livestream that goes into the 'Advertising' column and accounts for about 2% of 'Advertising.' If you have YouTube Premium, that also comes under 'Advertising' and accounts for about 30% of it.

All the money goes into a separate bank account (i.e. not my personal one) and if there's ever anything left over it gets rolled over into the budget for the next episode.

The money I make from acting work goes to me. This year I filmed a really big action role (I'm not allowed to tell you what it is yet) which paid decently, and I had a couple of other little gigs here and there.

Sometimes I can top up my income by doing speaking gigs; this year there were none of those. Some invitations I turned down because I wanted to focus on doing press for my acting. Quietly, a friend has let me know that speaking out on Palestine may have made it much more difficult for me to get invited to that sort of work, which, if true, is worth it as far as I’m concerned.

I have certainly never seen this level of financial transparency from Nyk, I'll give Oliver that.

His love life isn't going well though:

I also survived two breakups, which is one more than last year. (I hope that trend doesn't continue in 2026!) This year was a very bad one politically in my country; I may soon be banned from certain public spaces and open hatred against people like me continues to be ubiquitous in every mainstream outlet. Nevertheless, we shall persist!

AFAIK Nyk is still with Uwu Bigears so Nyk is faring better relationship-wise.

The progression of a troon's narrative:

Esqueer: He was unarmed
Also Esqueer: Having a gun is legal, they're not claiming he pulled it or brandished it, just that he possessed it
Also Esqueer: He was a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry.

It's not like I expect a man who has deluded himself and everyone around him into thinking he's a woman to be capable of rational thinking or consistency of thought, but the cognitive dissonance here is something else.

Whenever the left puts out flyers educating normies on how to behave at protests, they always tell them to leave their weapons at home, but I guess this male nurse never got the memo about leaving his weapons at home while attending a protest:

So this guy disregarded the most basic, common sense rules of safe protesting that every protestor is encouraged to familiarize themselves with... and he's dead now, but Esqueer insists you should totally continue bringing your guns to an anti-ICE protest while getting into officers' faces and interfering with their work.

I've said it before and I will keep saying it: the likes of Esqueer are just trying to get people killed by sending them after ICE.

 

[The Gays From LA]

Whenever Esqueer wants something to happen, he will post about it as a hypothetical and pretend that whatever he's describing isn't what he himself is working towards:

But let's go back in time a little to look at what Esqueer was doing during Biden:

In 2023, Esqueer went to the Harvard Kennedy School, aka the John F. Kennedy School of Government, a school at Harvard that specializes in teaching public policy, international development and educating future political leaders:

While Esqueer was studying there, he was ranting about Jake Sullivan (former Biden White House national security advisor) having joined the same school as him, not as a student like Caraballo but as a professor. Esqueer called Jake Sullivan a "war criminal":

So why was Esqueer studying at this school? Does the Harvard lawyer have political ambitions?

Before he locked his Bsky account and deleted a whole bunch of BSes, Esqueer would at times refer to Euromaidan as an example of a successful "colour revolution" that he wanted to see copied in the US. Esqueer would refer to Euromaidan as "the revolution of dignity using patriotism and Ukrainian flags" while readily admitting that he himself as a far-left socialist "thinks of nationalism as a cancer", he claimed that "counter authoritarian movements are most succesful when they usurp the mantle of patriotism":

Here is Caraballo during the anti-ICE riots in LA last year explicitly stating he wanted to see a Euromaidan-style collapse of Trump's regime: "The only hope I have is that Trump severely overreaches and incites a mass uprising that causes his regime to collapse Ukraine 2014 style, It's the only way out."

If you have any doubt about what "overreach" Esqueer is referring to, here's what actually happened during Euromaidan, keep in mind that this is Esqueer's, quote, "only hope" for "regime collapse":

108 civilian protesters and 13 police officers were killed[1] in Ukraine's Revolution of Dignity (or the 'Maidan Revolution'), which was the culmination of the Euromaidan protest movement. The deaths occurred in January and February 2014; most of them on 20 February, when police snipers fired on anti-government activists in Kyiv. The slain activists are known in Ukraine as the Heavenly Hundred or Heavenly Company (Ukrainian: Небесна сотня, romanized: Nebesna sotnia). By June 2016, 55 people had been charged in relation to the deaths of protesters, including 29 former members of the Berkut special police force, ten titushky or loyalists of the former government, and ten former government officials.[1]
...
According to Deputy Prosecutor General of Ukraine Oleh Zalisko [uk] in February, 184 people sustained gunshot wounds in Kyiv and over 750 suffered bodily injury.[17]
...

In the immediate aftermath of the revolution, the new government's health minister, Oleh Musiy—a doctor who helped oversee medical treatment for casualties during the protests—told the Associated Press that the similarity of the bullet wounds suffered by both protesters and police suggested the shooters were trying to stoke tensions on both sides and spark greater violence, with the goal of justifying a Russian invasion. "I think it wasn't just a part of the old regime that (plotted the provocation), but it was also the work of Russian special forces who served and maintained the ideology of the (old) regime," he said, citing forensic evidence.[30] Hennadiy Moskal, former deputy head of the Security Service of Ukraine and Ministry of Internal Affairs, suggested that snipers from the Security Service and Militsiya were responsible, acting on contingency plans dating back to Soviet times: "Snipers received orders to shoot not only protesters, but also police forces. This was all done to escalate the conflict, to justify the police operation to clear Maidan"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maidan_casualties

So Esqueer and others on the left won't cease agitating the public against ICE until 108 civilians and 55 cops are dead, with hundreds of civilians injured, with days upon days of mass casualties.

I personally suspect that this is the reason Esqueer locked his Bsky account, because this is what Esqueer and other far-left TRAs are working towards. The left wants both ICE agents and anti-ICE activists to be killed, not just individually but by the dozens. Otherwise they can't have their "colour revolution" that will give them access to political power, no through the electoral process but through regime collapse.

And if you think this is me putting my tin foil hat on, there are named individuals experienced with regime change currently working with the anti-ICE protest movement:

Went back to Bsky to see what the troons there are crying about lately.

Film troons are crying that they don't get cast in movies anymore: "trans representation was pushed off a cliff"

This troon claims that there are more jokes about troons in films than there are visible troons in films right now [citation needed]:

Hey film troon, if it's any consolation to you: I bet there's always a role available for you in t-porn movies. Know your place, know your audience.
What, you don't want to act in t-porn movies? Why not? Aren't t-porn movies movies too? Don't you know "sex work is just work'? AOC said so! What, do you feel like you're above porn actors, you uppity snobby troon actor? Are you a SWERF or what?

 

[The Gays From LA]

I fucking love Bsky! All the troons in one place all crying about the same shit. Troons on Bsky today are crying over the IOC banning troon athletes from competing against biological women. Finally!

women's sports are not a dumping ground for mediocre men

"Resulted in suicides and ruined lives" They don't have to convince me, I was already sold on the idea.

This is how all these troons are going to end up, if they don't 41% before they even manage to get to old age:
