Scaling Up the Fight Against Misinformation

Hi, I'm Thomas Westbrook, creator of Holy Koolaid - a YouTube channel dedicated to promoting scientific skepticism, critical thinking, and pushing back against religious extremism and misinformation. For nearly a decade, I've been creating content that has reached almost 40 million viewers, helping people think critically about religious claims and combat dangerous pseudoscience.

Now, I'm taking the next big step - and I need your help to make it happen.

The Mission:

I'm pooling resources with fellow skeptic and philosopher Stephen Woodford (Rationality Rules) to rent a professional studio space together in the UK. This collaboration will allow us to:

Why This Matters:

With the rise of Christian nationalism and religious extremism, the need for clear, factual, science-based content has never been more critical. Having spent years in evangelical circles before becoming a secular activist, I understand how these systems of belief work - and how to effectively combat them.

What We Need:

My funding goals are structured to help scale up systematically:

Every dollar helps Holy Koolaid to build a stronger platform to promote critical thinking and combat dangerous misinformation. While religious organizations may have massive budgets and institutional backing, we have something more powerful - a passionate community dedicated to truth and reason!

Join the Movement:

Whether you can contribute $5 or $500, your support helps build a future where reason prevails over rhetoric, and evidence trumps extremism. Together, we can scale up this fight and make a real difference.

Thank you for being part of this mission, and as always: dare to be curious, but don't drink the Koolaid!

Sincerely,

Thomas Westbrook (Holy Koolaid)
