to, to clarify, you're saying this Louise person has an equal footing from the left that Alex Jones has on the right?

Everyone knows that Jones is crazy and treats him as such




This is supposed to be a legit news source and they are misleading people to keep them in the dark.

I'll leave it up to you to figure out which one is more scary.

She has 280k twitter followers. Alex has ~600k.

About the same level of intelligence people give her tweets as those who gives Jones credence.

I don't think that's true at all. i see a lot of people on here and otherwise that absolutely buy into what he's saying. It is legitimately scary. We're not longer talking about policy disagreements, we're talking about a growing number of people on the right who are taking the word of this guy as the truth.

I'm just saying there are people equivalent to Alex Jones on the left

The Buzzfeed dossier thing is just as whacky as anything Alex has ever put out there

Does he only report false stories? He never reports accurately? I have no idea. Just curious.


Your protesting makes me want to listen to him to see if he is worthy of your melt down. Your fear is interesting.

who are not taken anywhere near as seriously as AJ is by the right.

You have people in this very thread who say he's just as credible as the "MSM". If you don't see the difference between plain old liberal bias and the absolute gobbledygook that comes out of Jones' mouth then you're not a serious person.

Being a 9/11 and Sandy Hook truther are among his more sane takes.

He believes Aliens live under the US Capitol building, for instance.

That you're still looking at this as a left vs right thing is the problem.

You don't want to talk about the nut jobs on your side like Sally Kohn and all of the "We're going to die" folks.

You seem really upset that the MSM bullshite brigade may actually have someone else in the room not following their predetermined narrative.

Why

I'm of the opinion that no media entity is to be trusted. CNN, FOX, ABC, Huff Po, InfoWars, etc

Although I much enjoy viewing alternative news source's rather than your CNN's NY Times, WSJ, etc

No no no

I'm not talking about Fox, or Rush, or the WSJ here

surely you see the difference between those 3 and Alex Jones. Surely. He makes Sean Hannity look like Socrates.

Well that solves it. You haven't heard of them so their hundreds of thousands of twitter followers don't count.

Also Mensch = patribotics.

I didn't say that but i'm going to need more than twitter followers to demonstrate reach. There are plenty of ways someone can falsely boost their twitter presence if they wanted to. I've never heard of these people and i follow politics pretty closely.
