"understood to be a far-right individual"

[edit]
To use a popular expression, “more heat than light”. Dronebogus (talk) 22:44, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

my, my. Archipel Gulag is rearing it's ugly head. He does not hold "far right opinions", which can be discussed and which could change. We designate him as a "far right individual", marking and outlawing him as a *person*, and I guess he deserves what he's got coming. Where is Solzhenitsyn when you need him? --85.255.236.77 (talk) 13:12, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a point in here somewhere? O3000 (talk) 13:25, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The pathologization of political opinions doesn't worry you? It worries me. Any individual can change any viewpoint given new information. This article is designed to pigeonhole Paul and paint him as untrustworthy regardless of the accuracy or recency of his information using terms like "conspiracy theorist" and linking him to other "cancelled" celebrities. It's labelism and it needs to stop. My fear is that the pro-left academics at wikipedia will keep crying wolf and writing Doxxing articles until the public stops listening and we reach a point-of-no-return. Personally I have already stopped listening. Wikipedia's harsh censorship and biased rhetoric has radicalized me against all things left-wing. Further radicalization will occur until and unless conservative biographies are written with a neutral viewpoint. 124.169.149.140 (talk) 03:48, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Defending a proven far right racist, whose roster of content is complaining about all the non-whites in Europe, and inventing conspiracy theories you were already "radicalized" sir, seeing that you see no issue with this behaviour. 75.61.144.195 (talk) 04:17, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not a far right person? Oh really? https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2022/05/06/leaked-audio-underscores-dark-side-far-right-youtube-subculture[1] 31.185.238.63 (talk) 13:15, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Anyone disagreeing that he is far right need to understand that “far right” encompasses many different ideologies. Just because he isn’t Richard Spencer doesn’t make him centre right by any means…SinoDevonian (talk) 18:37, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Likely not born with “little” financial resources as he self described

[edit]

From Nico Hines @ The Daily Beast:

“According to Watson’s birth certificate, Land Registry records, and Sheffield council, however, the story may have been a little more complicated; think stunning countryside vistas rather than the projects.

Watson was born on May 24, 1982, at Jessop Hospital in Sheffield to Philip and Hazel Watson. They registered their second son’s home address as School Lane in Grenoside, a suburb to the north of the city, which residents said had retained its traditional village atmosphere. Sheffield council said the house has never been in public ownership, so the records suggest he was not born on a council estate.

Over the next 20 years, the Watson family would live in a series of similar communities that run along the leafy northwest suburbs of Sheffield, separating the city from the picturesque Peak District National Park.” 153.33.46.22 (talk) 13:28, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have added parts of this resume to the article, and created an early life section. Including the street names probably counts as an invasion of privacy for the purposes of Wikipedia, so I have not done that, although it appears Watson's parents were not living in the UK from 2003.

This is a convicted sex offender who coincidentally has the same name as the article subject. Irrelevant. 2.98.183.194 (talk) 13:11, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Anti-abortion

[edit]

Where is it said that he is an anti-abortion activist? Who added this category and why? Is it from one of his videos? Thanks. 2.98.183.194 (talk) 13:09, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lack of NPOV

[edit]

"he helped promote fake news" How is this NPOV? It isn't a quote, it's editorial. It should be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:2FC0:F:E123:5FF5:2949:5DEF (talk) 22:15, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tim Pools Video does not contradict Paul

[edit]

Video in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Joseph_Watson#cite_note-33 does not contradict Watson's claims as is stated. Tim Pool found no go zones in the linked video. 86.161.47.102 (talk) 17:22, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
