Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on Thursday moved to liquidate his personal assets, agreeing to demands from the families of Sandy Hook victims whom he owes more than $1.5 billion in damages over his lies about the 2012 school massacre.
He hasn’t been deplatformed. He lost a brand name that is synonymous with himself. He can add a 2 to his web addresses and be right back where he is in a few days. Frankly all this attention he’s getting from the media will probably just help him accomplish that. His listeners are total morons, but they are also addicted to his bullshit. Addicts find their shit, Even the dumb ones.
Losing your brand and website is being deplattfomed. People act like it’s a binary thing where deplattforming either needs to wipe you off the face of the earth or it was pointless. The disruption will cost him viewers because while he sets up a new base his viewers will get bored and go to watch other things.
Not everyone will get bored, but enough people will move on for it to be a real concern for Alex Jones.
Ask any creator on the internet how bad a disruption in viewership is.

Sorry but words have meanings and he’s lost no access to any platform as a result of this.

I hope if this ever actually happens you’ll come back and rub it in my face. I’m not going to bother taking a note because it isn’t going to happen and you won’t. In reality, every trump voter that didn’t listen to Alex Jones already is going to watch the news and start regardless of whether it’s on Infowars or Infowars. 2.

That’s your job brother. You go ask some and come back and prove your point with their answers. It’s not my job to try to beat my own point. I’m sure they don’t like it but I also don’t give a s***. Andrew Callaghan seems to have bounced back just fine.
And frankly, it’s just silly for you to compare Alex Jones to YouTubers or whatever you are considering content creators to be.
Don’t call yourself that. You’ll learn to look up what words mean someday. I’d be happy to help you finish 5th grade unlike those meanies on that website.

Alex Jones is a hydra and Infowars is but one of his heads.
Infowars, itself, means nothing. Killing it will do no good.
He is the brand. And what’s worse, his followers live for bad press.

Lemmy really is just reddit with more tedious people.
