  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,204 ✭✭✭98q76e12hrflnk

    Is Farrakhan left wing though? Thought he was anti white, anti semite, believes in aliens etc.

    Who is the left wing equivalent of PJW or Infowars?

    Yeah, Farrakhan isn't really right or left. Just racist.

    As regards left-wing equivalents of infowars types, I'm sure they exist but they are very much on the fringes as opposed to Infowars who are quite mainstream when it comes to right-wing social media.

    Off the top of my head, the best I can come up with are people like Cenk Uigher or Glenn Greenwald but they don't even come close. They're more akin to spin-merchants than they are outright liars.

    So it seems that even mentioning Alex Jones name will get a person banned on Facebook.

    Do people really think thats reasonable?


    You've been asked for a source on that and haven't provided one. Sounds like bullshít. And after spending 10 seconds searching facebook has confirmed it to be bullshít.

    Can't see the bit where he was banned, where is it? Post went against community standards so presumably the post was blocked but was he banned?

    Thanks yeah have asked this before in other threads but it is notable how right wingers fall for the most obvious spoofers.

    It was blocked/banned for using someone name. Censorship of the highest level by the left.

    The post was blocked/banned not the person. Also it was to promote an event not because the name was used. Search his name of Facebook or Twitter loads of results.

    Yeah have you got any other sources, because a quick scroll through his horrifying feed proves to me that this one is just an alt-right, islamophobic, pro-Israel troll.

    There are plenty of spoofers out there selling to liberal types.

    A good example is the Goop stuff sold by Gwyneth Palthrow. The same products are also sold by Alex Jones although with different branding due to the different markets. I'm not sure how Jones rebrands the vagina stones but he might be able to get some help from Gavin McInnes who shoved a dildo up his arse (NSFW) to own the libs.

    I'm lost now . The post wasn't about a bbq with TR? What was it about?

    Tells you all you need to know about someone when that's their "source".

    This won't be everyone's cup of tea here, but there is a YouTube drummer who has recorded a mini album of metal with Jones' ramblings as vocals.

    It's fookin brilliant :D

    Why don't you type the words Alex Jones on your Facebook status and find out?

    Provide actual proof...

    She sells stuff to gullible people but think that's where the similarities end.

    The link is exactly what it's supposed to be and so much worse than a Rick Roll. Nobody should click it.

    Yeah, I know. I'm doing my best here to find the lefty version of the Alt-Right characters but it's not that easy. There isn't really an analogue as much as they try to elevate the likes of Soros and antifa as being influential in the minds of liberal types.

    Can we all at least agree that Gavin McInnes shoving a dildo up his arse is just so Gavin McInnes? Was it a dragon dildo or just plain? No way I'm clicking that link.

    Looks like more than just Jones are getting kicked off fb

    It's especially good to see Milo on that list. May he live the rest of his days in abject poverty for spreading the hateful nonsense that he did.

    Deplatforming works.

    A bit more research tells me I have to retract my statement...I was wrong.

    You cannot mention Alex Jones in a positive manner, but you can criticise him.

    Are you an Anti Semite or something?

    Now perhaps Facebook will ban criticism of Israel..that would be very interesting wouldn't it.
