Louis Theroux of the BBC did a documentary on a handful of the "alt right" folks, including Fuentes. Fuentes literally streams his "show" from his parents' basement. I have no idea why people would like that guy, as he comes across as precisely the sort of (literal) basement-dweller that one would expect to find on someplace like 4chan. He's a smarmy, petulant man-child.
Because they like that he hates Jews and black people, not sure what the hurdle is here.

The story is somebody claiming to be Hunter Biden dropped off a laptop at a computer repair shop, never to return. Isn't it pretty commonly accepted that the laptop is not actually Hunter's but may contain some files that were taken from Hunter's actual laptop? Also, that despite an investigation, nothing incriminating was ever found? Or is that just what the evil mainstream media wants us to believe?

Also I don't give a **** about Biden, Hunter or Joe. If they did something illegal, charge them. The GOP seems to think that we worship Biden or the Clintons the same way they worshipped Trump.
Yeah, the actual story about the laptop is weird, but if we want to accept the story at face value, it went something like, Biden dropped the computer off at some random computer repair shop, never returned, and then the owner contacted rudy giuliani. I think that the things on the laptop have been authenticated, but some weird hoops to get to there.

So right, it's weird. But then the whole story suppression is where the right wingers are all butt-hurt. I think that there were troll farms spreading the story to try and hype the thing up, probably the same activity patterns for how the hacked stories were spread in the 2016 election. And social media companies made decisions after 2016 to prevent that sort of manipulation, so they blocked that NY Post story from being shared.
Giuliani being involved so early in the custody of he laptop and when it was released reeks of dirty tricks.

I suppose it's a good thing that the folks in that movement can't do better for a leader than someone who literally lives and works in his parents' basement.

I feel conflicted. The dude has cancer, which is sad. But at the same time…pooping pants is funny as hell.

I’m a big “**** cancer” guy but in Putin’s case, I’m rooting for the cancer.

I hope the cancer is so bad that it's visibly obvious what the cure is once he dies

I’ve become afraid of a “Tenet situation” where he knows he’s gonna die so he tries to take the world with him. He’s egotistical enough to try it

hopefully there’s enough pushback in the Russian nuclear protocol

I mean, the first amendment free speech stuff is completely wrong, but let's not act like the only political party with influence at any given time is the one that holds the presidency.

Of course, what better way to combat a dog whistle butt ass argument than with a different dog whistle butt ass argument

And those requests were to take down dick pics.
Likewise, it mentioned the Trump campaign also made requests to moderate content, but since Elon is only trying to torch one team that wasn’t expounded on.

Do dick picks also fall under a different category of moderation/potential criminal activity? Not necessarily explicit content, but that kind of content shared against the wishes of the person depicted in the images.

In some states, depending upon on the definition of revenge porn. James Woods sharing nude pictures of Hunter Biden to cause harm seems to fit the broad definition, but I’m unsure of each legal requirement.

I'm asking cos I'm not sure how that works, jurisdictionally. Is it where the digital files are obtained? Where they are disseminated? Where the host service is located? (To that end, does Safe Harbor shield a service provider from liability for hosting such images the same way it does IP infringement?) I frankly have no idea.

This is playing out a ton like the old Russian troll farm bullshit. Considering Musk met with Putin a couple months ago before he took over Twitter...
