Alex Jones responds

I don't think anyone besides Alex Jones would disagree that Alex Jones is a nut job. Of course, I suppose it could be the greatest troll job in modern history, just spouting **** to make money and piss people off. In this case though, I'll go with nut job for $1000 Alex.
He is crazy.... like a fox. He convinces rubes that they need to be wearing tin foil hats, then he sells them the tin foil. From what I understand, he’s making a fortune peddling all that survivalist crap. He’s real similar to the televangelists that spew all kinds of crazy nonsense.... but instead of selling them “salvation”, he sells them water purifying tablets.

Seems familiar

(Insert Liberal Politician here)... is crazy.... like a fox. They convince rubes that they are victims and their neighbors want to hurt them, then they sell them government as the only solution. From what I understand, they're making a fortune peddling all that social justice crap. They're real similar to the televangelists that spew all kinds of crazy nonsense.... but instead of selling them “salvation”, they sell them socialism.
 
544 acts of media approved violence and harassment by the left against Trump supporters.

https://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2018/07/05/rap-sheet-acts-of-media-approved-violence-and-harassment-against-trump-supporters/

When not calling Trump supporters “Nazis” as a means to dehumanize us, the establishment media like to whine about the lack of civility in American politics, even as they cover up, ignore, downplay, or straight-up approve of the wave of violence and public harassment we are seeing against supporters of President Trump.
It is open season on Trump supporters, and the media is only fomenting, encouraging, excusing, and hoping for more… The media are now openly calling Trump supporters “Nazis” and are blaming Trump for a mass murder he had nothing to do with. This, of course, is a form of harassment because it incites and justifies mob violence.

Here is the list, so far, and remember that if any one of these things happened to a Democrat, the media would use the story to blot out the sun for weeks. Remember how crazy the media went over a nobody rodeo clown who wore an Obama mask, a GOP staffer who criticized Obama’s daughters? And yet, hundreds of Trump supporters are harassed and brutalized and the media only dutifully report them, if at all. That is because the media are desperate to normalize and justify violence and harassment against Trump and his supporters.

And while the media openly encourage this violence against us, the media also campaign to disarm us, to take away our Second Amendment right to defend ourselves.
 
I really don't know if I've ever even heard this guy talk. I might have read an InfoWars link once or twice in my life (likely from this board), but I couldn't even tell you anything about them at all.

I do know that Alex Jones has some conspiracy ideas on Sandy Hook which I don't like since my fraternity brother lost his son in that crime and I know 100% that what the media says happened pretty much happened.

“Which I don’t like”??? Could you be any more milk toast, Mister Rodgers?
 
So to summarize:

Suppressing speech is fine since these are private, not government, platforms. With you so far.

Violating policy can get you tossed from the platform. Okay, still with you.

And the policy violations and bannings are enforced against one group (conservatives, 95% of whom are white males) and not the other (liberals, particularly "people of color"). Yeah, you might have a problem there ...

California Civil Code, section 51 (known generally as the Unruh Civil Rights Act, after some low-level government nobody) provides in relevant part, "(b) All persons within the jurisdiction of this state are free and equal, and no matter what their sex, race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sexual orientation, citizenship, primary language, or immigration status are entitled to the full and equal accommodations, advantages, facilities, privileges, or services in all business establishments of every kind whatsoever."

So if the platforms target white males (as they do) and natural born citizens (as they do), say hello to my lil friend, the Unruh Civil Rights Act.
 
Jones shpuld publicly declare that he self identifies as a trans woman. Then sue for civil rights violations.

Think about it. He would win no matter what. If the court rejected his identity as a woman, then that would strike down a whole lot of nonsense the left is trying to do with bathroom laws and other things. If they accept his identity then he’s is a protected group.

Why does the animosity towards people that say stupid **** have to be at level 10 all the time in this country? That's part of the problem. Look, as far as I know Alex Jones just gets on the radio and spews ****. He's not committing any crime (as far as I know). He's probably a conspiracy theorist that panders to susceptable people to make a buck. He's not going to be the first or the last.

We actually give him power by talking about him or listening to him. I choose to do neither.

There is just a huge problem in this country right now about letting words drive us into a frenzy of emotional arguments. I'm not very good at it, but my father used to teach me that the first person to loose their temper and get emotional in a debate lost. It's a good lesson (still to this day). And I think Trump has played the media/public like a puppet using this philosophy. You guys think Trump is losing his cool while he's typing his Twitter feed, but I don't think that at all. I think everything he does on Twitter is still Trump being Trump and trying to see/instigate OTHER people to loose control. And he succeeds quite often.

Truthfully, we shouldn't listen to anything on Trump's twitter feed. I don't belong to it. I don't really care. When the media repeats it as part of a story, I laugh more than I take is seriously. I think he says outrageous things to see what sticks, what gets a rise out of people and that gives him information on how a much milder policy might be reacted too. It's actually a pretty genius idea when you think about it.
