Random Thought of the Day

I finally was able to view a few videos from the now tech-banned Alex Jones on the Infowars website. His language is a bit strong, but I don’t hear him advocating violence. He claims the media has taken his words out of context, and he came right out and said he doesn’t advocate violence towards the media, and he doesn’t deny the Sandy Hook shootings took place. Yet, EVERY story I’ve seen the last month in the mainstream media has claimed he believed Sandy Hook never took place, and I’ve seen MSNBC & CNN stories today saying Jones told his listeners to “use their rifles on the media”. This seems similar to claims the media makes about Trump that he won’t condemn racism or David Duke, even though I’ve heard him do so in over a hundred sound clips. Regardless of what Alex Jones has said, wouldn’t it make sense to hold an interview with him to clarify his positions? CNN, MSNBC, and other news networks can’t carve out time for a 10-minute interview in their 24/7/365 broadcasts? The media have no problem interviewing Osama bin Laden, Vladamir Putin, Hugo Chavez, Kim Jong Un, the Castro’s, Iranian mullahs, and other nutcases, who do nothing but spew propaganda. But Alex Jones crosses the line, eh? Maybe Jones is lying through his teeth and will lie again, but the media has no problem devoting half their airtime to serial liar, Omarosa Newman. Some conspiracy theories no longer seem that far-fetched. Journalism is dead.

So, Twitter and Vimeo have joined Apple, Google, Amazon, and Facebook in banning Alex Jones & Infowars. I still know almost nothing about Alex Jones other than he’s a “right-wing conspiracy theorist”. The media and tech companies never seem to specify exact what got him banned other than to reference generic violations of “community standards”. I’ve tried to view videos and read articles to see what exactly is so offensive, but everywhere I go information is blocked or removed. Even at the Infowars website, it is tough to find any information since denial-of-service attacks have hit them, and a ton of their website videos seem to be linked to now-blocked Youtube or Vimeo accounts. All of this censorship happening within a week of time isn’t helping the case for those that say there’s no conspiracy. Can anyone out there think of an equivalent left-wing site that has been banned, including ones that advocate violence?

In an obviously coordinated censorship attack, Alex Jones’s InfoWars was purged yesterday from Facebook, Google, Apple, and parts of Amazon. Yet, Antifa, Louis Farrakhan, George Soros, and Al Sharpton have seen no such censorship, despite organizing riots and violence. I admitted don’t know much about InfoWars, but as far as I can tell, they haven’t advocated violence and destruction of property, which many untouched leftist sources do. Big Tech companies control so much of information & media nowadays, they may be as powerful as the U.S. government, maybe more! Tech’s recent censorship of conservative & libertarian ideas should scare the hell out of any freedom-loving person. The vast majority of the mainstream media don’t care simply because they oppose the ideas being purged. That’s the same type of shallow thinking that has led to virtually every totalitarian takeover of a democracy in world history.
