Truly the most irresponsible cable network in the country.

This is the kind of crap that (kind of) gets removed from Facebook, but here it is getting blasted out to millions nightly.

What’s even more stunning is that one of the leading vaccine manufacturers, @pfizer, is STILL a major advertiser on this network!!

Why in the world would they spend money on a network that is telling people to QUESTION THE VACCINE?!??
For the YoU PrOViDeD No CoNTeXT crowd, here’s the segment:

HORRENDOUS: If you’re still advertising on Fox News, you are sponsoring and attaching your brand to conspiracies and racism. Full stop.

As Fox rails against Black Lives Matter, let’s see what their major advertisers said about it this summer.

Thread:
.@Verizon, one of Fox’s biggest advertisers, made a strong statement in support of racial justice, but they hand Fox millions to lie about George Floyd and defend white supremacists. Image
.@GM and @Cadillac, major sponsors of Fox News, gave $10 million to fund racial justice. Today, they continue to sponsor Fox shows which say Black Lives Matter has torn the fabric of our country. ImageImage

Dammit. Should have gone with that one first.

Everyone is rightly horrified by Marjorie Taylor Greene, but no one is talking about is that she’s the first Congressperson whose worldview was created by being extremely online.

All of her conspiracies are par for the course across @facebook @twitter and @youtube.
She’s a mix of 8Chan, InfoWars, Breitbart, The Daily Wire and The Daily Stormer and leans on each at different times or all at the same time.

You literally cannot achieve this type of worldview without being on social networks and message boards all day long.
She’s now being asked questions about these ideas because she’s now in the real world, in government, where they are not (yet) mainstreamed and she’s struggling with it because she’s not posting on @facebook.

None of these things make sense to people who aren’t extremely online.

Let’s talk about Alex Jones for a second as long as he’s saying that he coordinated the insurrection last Tuesday.

He’s monetizing himself using the some of the biggest corporations in the country.

Follow along:
If you weren’t aware, Alex Jones has an @amazon storefront. That’s right. Amazon helps a person who claims he planned the Insurrection and has harassed Sandy Hook parents. Not only that, they PROFIT from it.

They’ve continually ignored questions about this
Over on the Infowars site, insurrectionist and Sandy Hook parent-harasser accepts payments for goods from @visa @Mastercard @AskAmex @discover & @PayPal.

Seems pretty irresponsible.

It’s difficult to overestimate how much loosely moderated social platforms combined with payment platforms have created an absolute explosion of grifters who use algorithmically amplified anger to enrich themselves while destroying society.
Because of the social networks’ inability to moderate (or perhaps interest in not moderating), we are now seeing the biproducts:

Radicalized masses of people intent on burning down democracy because of disinformation and well-paid con artists furious that they’ve been made.
This is not and has never been about free speech. It’s about reach and about cash.

Reach for those who want to sway the masses in their favor politically and cash for those capitalizing on the anger that comes from it.

The platforms made it all happen.
