David Icke banned off Facebook

[Proper Tidy]

I don't think they will go away on their own or just run out of steam. Firstly, as has been said, this stuff has been around in one form or another for a long time. The advent and exploitation of the internet has concentrated power into relatively fewer and more powerful sources. I'm thinking Icke and Alex Jones here. So that imo is where you focus the attack. What these guys need is exposure (being talked about) to sustain their popularity. But at the same time you need to tackle it. Not just by laughing at those who have been sucked in (or 'woken up' as they like to say) but by attacking the sources and discrediting them.

There needs to be a militancy against it amongst the left. They call it an 'info-war'; well there needs to be a fight back. They are remarkably flimsy in some ways. Jones is desperate for attention/prone to melt-downs, Icke is already a laughing stock generally. I think the stakes are too high to just point and laugh occasionally though. Discredit and undermine the leaders. So a big thank you to those who have already been patiently doing that. Keep it up, it's vital!

Honestly the best thing the 'left' could do to stop the spread and arrest the popularity of conspiracism and right wing populism is to fill the vacuum they find space in. A vacuum which mostly exists cos the left vacated it tbh

What I don't get Marty, taking you at face value, is why you'd ever watch that unless you're immersed in that alt right scene, as it's not really relevant to your life as you present it. Not that you can't be interested in whatever you like, just how did you get there?

YouTube is hell of a drug.

The misconceptions on here about me I find hilarious, an absolute pile on of grown men acting like school kids.

I’ll give you an example of how I end up watching such ‘taboo’ to you and others on here content - I put Trumps coronavirus WH pressers on when I go to bed as they send me off to sleep.

As for Icke, I’ve hardly watched any of his stuff and what I have watched - most of it was absolute bizarro - control frequencies beamed from Saturn etc.

not many misconceptions about who you are on here anymore Marty1


its your posting habit i'm sad to say

Not taboo, just so far removed from much that matters in my life, except for the shit it breeds. Love to never have heard of it. Maybe swap the Trump for some better fiction?

I find that hard to believe - especially coming from a Paul Mason fanboy

I mean I'm doing a couple of solpadol to nod off most nights at the moment which clearly isn't healthy or sensible but still. Have you considered codeine

We need a video clip of Ruth from Ozark saying this that everyone could use as a stock response to Marty1

They should unban him and let him work hard to rebuild the site over 24 hours. And then ban him again for the LOLz.

You weapons grade, gas lighting, sock puppeting piece of excrement.

 

[ice-is-forming]

Correct, so why are LR still doing live interviews with Icke on the very platform he was booted off?

It’s pretty clear that LR are treading a very thin line with YT, if anything are looking to go the same way as Icke - it’s almost a deliberate marketing strategy as apparently Icke’s first and second interviews with LR have had over 65 million views.

Only almost a deliberate marketing strategy of that slippery sob Brian Rose!

 

[gentlegreen]

Myles Power got his video back up.
Icke's "arguments" are pathetic. He must be simply boring his fanbase into a hypnotic trance

It appears the guy who got a Nobel prize for PCR, went doolally and is a GW and AIDS denialist among other things ..psychedelics are apparently implicated .....

This is haunting me. Maybe it explains things though, if every night you fall asleep halfway though a trump session and then youtube auto plays increasingly extreme stuff all night so you're sort of subliminally absorbing all that crap, would explain why you cant actually say what you think but just have a sort of infestation of undigested really shit ideas.

We're at point where "research" means sat on your own watching some YouTube.

Don’t get spooked bimble - I’ve not worded that post very well - I used to watch the WH c-19 pressers to go to sleep when they were on live. AFAIK Trumps not doing them at present.

Im not playing re-runs of Trump to get to sleep and I also don’t have auto play turned on as it’s annoying.

Having once lived in a house with stoners, I do wonder how much the Fortean Times was a gateway into some of this kind of crap. Before that there were those ‘Unexplained’ part issue magazines. People were all over that stuff in the late 80s/90s, tbh a lot of it was quite fun/interesting but I can see where it might have led some people.

Questionable-cause logical fallacy. Were they stoners who accidentally fell down the conspiraloon rabbit hole, or were they fuckwits who smoked weed, then inevitably progressed to the conspiracy bullshit... chicken/egg.
