NO VIDEO? HERE'S WHY!

EV Channels Review

This impromptu live stream serves as a Labor Day message from Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield, explaining the absence of a regular video due to the team taking a well-deserved day off. The primary focus shifts to the upcoming release of a significant DEI video, which has been in development for over a year, highlighting the extensive animation and editing work involved. Gordon-Bloomfield also touches upon the challenges faced by content creators on platforms like YouTube, particularly the decline in ad revenue and the impact of YouTube Shorts. A significant portion of the discussion is dedicated to the controversial decisions and rhetoric surrounding Elon Musk and the platform X (formerly Twitter), with the channel firmly stating its refusal to engage with X due to its stance on LGBTQ+ issues and perceived lack of safety for minorities. The stream briefly covers recent EV news, including the Tesla Model 3 'Highland' update, noting its styling tweaks, new interior, and higher price point, while reiterating the channel's desire for more affordable EV options. The importance of decentralized production and the need for creator unions are also emphasized.
