Alkydere posted:Please, please, please don't tempt me with a future where Alex Jones' hole in the media stays empty. That sounds too much like a good time! I suspect it’s this There just isn’t a form of media one to one exactly the same as the basically dead radio industry. Radio died a hard death and now only reaches boomers and up, really, and the practice of having radio djs be small-time celebrities within a market due to lack of options bred people with the ability to do this rambling for hours. Iheartradio, formerly clear channel communication, is trying to corner the podcast game the way it sucked the radio market dry, by the by. Maybe the corporate structure has gotten better since it murdered radio creativity. Maybe. I think alex is one of the last holdouts of the radio djs made famous, and that particular angle to fame has basically become an impossible task. But we will see someone become alt right famous off of tiktok, if we havent already done so, for example.

The successor to Alex already exists in Q poo poo. It may not have one central figure, but that seems to be the direction things are going anyways. No one will have the crazy market on lock down like Alex did, but there will be thousands of Q and Q adjacent people to fill the vacuum.

The courts are very leery about pre-emptive speech bans for first amendment reasons, though he's certainly given them reason. It would also be raw red meat for his base.

It’s because they need to be able to decode the “secret signals” and they aren’t very smart. No way a Qultist is gonna learn actual cryptology, they already think grocery aisle word searches are dark sorcery.

univbee posted:I think an important variable for "who replaces Alex Jones" is the fact that Alex, much like other right-wing conspiracists like Art Bell and Rush Limbaugh, had an insane amount of air time, and I think that carries an awful lot of weight in some subtle ways. Tucker Carlson definitely has pull and some obvious overlap in viewership with AJ's audience, but he's only actually on for an hour every weeknight, at a time when you might have something better to do. Alex Jones was on for up to four hours every weekDAY, during regular work hours, plus two hours on Sundays. The people with the wrong sort of conspiracy-minded brainworms are going to form a sort-of emotional attachment to the beet red alcoholic who's "just like them" and whom they spend half of their working hours with, versus the more obviously disconnected and very rich man in the suit on the TV for an hour every weeknight. There's kind of a clear winner between those two in the "I could have a beer with them" contest, and this matters to the insane viewership. Alex also had the dubious advantage of having his own self-hosted studio where he was both the boss and the talent, so there was no one with authority over him. Fox News is a normal company with lawyers and risk avoidance. Tucker Carlson won't be allowed to go as far as Alex Jones. Fox has already alienated some of the wingnut base by saying crazy things like Biden won the election.

Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Jorp, Wee Benny Shaps, Wheels Cawthorn, Charlie "the Face" Kirk- all of them have been linked to Russian money, convincingly or explicitly in quite a few cases. Even if all of these heads were cut off, Poots would still fund whichever hydra-talking-head rose up

Kung Food posted:Imagine being the richest guy on earth, having infinite resources, the ability to do literally anything you want, and then spend all your time being a twitter troll. It's the only way he can get attention. Musk is only desperate for everyone to give him the adulation that actors and celebrities get. Here is a quote from noted sex pest TJ Miller: “Some Valley big shots have no idea how to react to the show,” Miller told me. “They can’t decide whether to be offended or flattered. And they’re mystified by the fact that actors have a kind of celebrity that they will never have—there’s no rhyme or reason to it, but that’s the way it is, and it kills them.” Miller met Musk at the after-party in Redwood City. “I think he was thrown by the fact that I wasn’t being sycophantic — which I couldn’t be, because I didn’t realize who he was at the time. He said, ‘I have some advice for your show,’ and I went, ‘No thanks, we don’t need any advice,’ which threw him even more. And then, while we’re talking, some woman comes up and says ‘Can I have a picture?’ and he starts to pose — it was kinda sad, honestly — and instead she hands the camera to him and starts to pose with me. It was, like, Sorry, dude, I know you’re a big deal — and, in his case, he actually is a big deal — but I’m the guy from ‘Yogi Bear 3-D,’ and apparently that’s who she wants a picture with.” Musk so desperately wants to be that guy, but he is only that guy to bazingas, and not the attractive people he wants to see. By doing nothing but shitposting all day, he draws that attention without having to interact with the people he despises. He's tech Donald Trump. His companies, despite the PR backlash, likely prefer that he waste his days shitposting instead of actively meddling in their day to day affairs.
