The view that he has isn't just a view that right-wing conspiracy theorists hold. I agree with Arch0wl, and I don't agree with him on many things. I'm quite literally on the other side of the political spectrum than him.

You can hate what people do but still support their right to do it. I'm sure we both think that Alex Jones is an idiot, but that's not the point.

... i'm gonna go i have more to say but hanging out with work friends
I hate alex jones's snake oil commercial bullshit and think thats a big scam but thats obviously not why he was shut down from taking payments/donations/what have you and its an alarming amount of control in regards to a private corporation being able to limit one's ability to dispel information into the public sphere or otherwise scare them into thinking twice before freely sharing their opinions. which of course probably doesn't sound bad to those people who are happy to shut out certain demographics from the discourse, but, yknow, muh scary precedent. ooooo
