Yep, we totally should allow those platforms to fail. I say organize a mass account closing just prior to the next business quarter reports. Hit them in the pocketbook. Just look at what happened to Facebook, how much value they lost. We can do it again if we all quit at the same time. Oh, you bloviate too buddy, whether or not someone is an idiot is highly subjective though. For an "idiot" Jones' media empire impresses me to no end, maybe you meant idiot savant. (ツ)_/¯
I'm starting to think that the last real and effective protest in America was the Montgomery bus boycott. People need to stop all this LARPING bullshit and engage in real protest. Cancel your accounts, go somewhere where they care about American values freedom of speech etc... etc...
I like the idea of a mass account walkout. The only useful purpose of the existing platforms is to promote their replacements !
Alex Jones is a self professed idiot. But a very successful showman. In his early days he was very successful in getting a lot of people interested in the alternate media. It was a time of falling towers and editorial standards, embedded fake news and war porn. Sure there has been the odd unhinged rant, and lately some unconscionable fear peddling, but some credit must be given. Although to me, once I discovered this space, Jones and Infowars became irrelevant. So much better content was out there.
I still listen, but I listen to many radio hosts.
I just decided to stop using youtube a little over a week ago. Takes some willpower, and willingness to live without some things that may only be on youtube. I existed quite fine before those things existed, I'll survive again.
I instead use real.video, bitchute.com, dtube.video, and dlive.io for my current video needs.
They have their issues, but it is worth it to me to say F*ck you to youtube.
