Sadly, re-using an old name is the least confused aspect of the entire story. It would be hilarious if it were harmless, but when actual people actually shoot up a business based on raving lunatic-level conspiracies, it's not as amusing . . .

Not amusing but sadly not that uncommon either.

I apologise, they can be a joke.

Lol. No need to stress the theory (*pizza/pedogate). Everything is subjective. Whatever "(adjective) news" you follow, take any of it with a grain of salt.

So we've grasped onto full-on anti-intellectualism? First Alex Jones, now unsubstantiated links to falsified scientific papers. Great. Let's all just follow our instinct and just become a post-scarcity society full of ignorant hedonistic individuals that cater to the whims of the few elite that regard those folks as cannon fodder and entertainment.

Let's countdown to that.

I wouldn't say so. I think you're getting the wrong idea.

I can see there are some trust issues. There are plenty of sources within that last article (but of course, anything is still arguable ).

Captain Obvious: Being extreme left / right is ridiculous. So is being full-on passive or "tin-foil hat".

What is more credible, "peer reviewed" scientific papers or "peer reviewed" source code?

Quiet here without Dave999, isn't it?

Don't really follow him. Have only come across him ~3 times on voat (trying to wean off reddit. Damn you, CGP Grey!).

Some of those mashed-up-videos of Alex on youtube are hilarious (& sad). Absolutely destroys all (if any) credibility. His behavior must generate hype / profit amongst simpletons.

So yes, originally I shouldn't have been so lazy as to cite infowars.
