After nearly 7 years i found my brand and persona. I am "youtubes Autistic uncle" , stoic, calm, advice and information built to help anyone reading this post! I am an uncle to a 9 year old autistic nephew. Figured why not use that same style of energy for my channel.

No, im not hyper, crazy and insane energy train. You won't that for me. But i am similar to that one channel with the elderly guy that sits in his rocking chair outside and just has a talk with everyone.

Ok, i do try to bring just slightly higher energy than that but its still low energy compared to hyper mrbeast channel energy. Lol.

But now that im figuring this out im settling back in. Readjusting the chair and visuals to make sure that theme follows in my future videos.

Both here and in the new channel too. 👍

"Never give up, and you'll never lose" 41 years into my life journey and nothing has taken me out or silenced me. I still have a voice and use it! So can you! Remember this. You automatically win just by not giving up. And if you're still doubting me. Im proof! 41 years living. And ready for how many more i still have to come! 👍



Life will pin you to the ground! Get back up! Even if it takes you a little time to figure how. Do it! As soon as your on your feet, you won!

Society will test you to your limits at your very core. Learn to pick your fights and not let them live rent free in your mind! And you'll win.

The key im trying to pass to you is as i said at the start.. "never give up, and you'll never lose".

I hope this helps anyone reading it.

Never thought i'd get emotional on a video 😭. But the one in editing now was so raw and honest that it brought the tears i couldn't hold it back because it exposed the truth about trauma that i still have.

And how a system has failed me. It is the truest most honest and vulnerable video i've ever made.

Im still wiping tears as i type this! It hurt to tell this story.. alot!

Every famous person was once unknown. Every trillion dollar corporation once used to be laughed at and ignored. Collectively we all love to rejection someone who is new and corporations that are new. If the name is unknown and they have no proven track record you will not care. Full stop.

Take for example a fantastic violinist that merged violin music with pop music. Her name is Lindsey Sterling. She was laughed at in one or those talent shows on tv. She got buzzed out. Her youtube start was very slow. But today she's highly respected and well loved. She has a strong enough backing to pack out and sell out stadiums when initially she literally had her dream stolen from her lit on fire burned down ashes, stomped on, and peed on by everyone. But she never gave up.

I know the story of 5 different computer companies that are industry giants and all of you know them today. They all started in a garage. And when they put their first computers together and sold their first piece of software they where laughed at and people said hell no they will not spend a penny on their product.

Every one person or entrepreneur, and visionary... they never start off fast and quick. Unless they are extremely lucky. Most start with deep agonizing pain. They get torn apart, hated, and stomped on. They get their dreams spit on. And so much more. But many win when they fight through this bullshit!

I see this now. Because you are looking at a man going through it right here right now. Will this post be seen by a billion people? Not even close. Will those that read it, follow it till the end? Nope. Most are more likely to say "i don't care" and move on than actually try and understand what I'm trying to say. I am just noise to 99% of people. (Right now).

Youtube (the company and platform) is a hostile place towards creators i don't care what anyone has to say. It is. I stand by it. Recently i figured out that Autism is no suppressed unless the information is coming from a board certified medical specialist. Their fear is that someone like me im spreading misinformation. So while they don't exactly out right block me they do decrease me recommendations to nothing.

My proof is the fact that i have over 100 videos here in this channel that over the last year has not been shown to even 1 single person. It was removed completely from recommendation. Actually the only videos that get just a few views here and there are the shorts. It's the only think keeping a heart beat on this channel. Long form videos i have actually started hiding them because it's not worth keeping public a video this is no longer actively recommended.

Another truth is that the channel has over 1.9k subscribers but honestly only 10 are active at any point in time. 0% of subscribers have the bell on for the channel and the audience themselves largely have shown they don't care. With 1.9k subscribers i was supposed to have at least some people with bell notifications on. And at least 500 to 1000 views per view just from subscribers alone. Max i normally get is 15.

I write this to show how hostile it is to be creating a channel on youtube in 2026.

And if people can prove me wrong i challenge and dare you too in the comments.

Recently i did a small test where i threw a couple of recent shorts just to test the water and thats where i was firmly proven that the channel is dead.

1.9k subscribers means absolutely nothing when in reality it's more like 5 to 10 active subscribers.


But the point i make is to prove how much of hell is actually is to make a name for yourself and get people to buy into your vision and what you bring when 99% of those that currently view my channels are predisposed to say no and move on.

The world is forcing me very hard to give up on this dream and vision i have. And it pushes me every second of every single day telling me to give up already you won't win.

But really i won't win if i give up. Because if i don't then i always have a chance to work hard enough and one day earn my win.

While i have no way to bring this specific channel back. The other channel is doing just ever slightly better and thats the one where i keep working hard on.

As long as i have life in my body i will keep working down to my bones to try and earn a win. And i can only hope that eventually i do. 👍
