Alex Jones
Like Milo Yiannopoulos, Alex Jones demonstrates that one of the best ways to deal with dangerous ideas isn’t letting them play out in the public square. You just stop listening. After Jones was kicked off of Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and other platforms, you really stopped hearing much about him. (But his recent court appearances indicate he’s still making quite a bit of money.) These days, when his name comes up it’s usually related to news about ways he’s humiliating himself or the numerous lawsuits he’s fighting (and losing). His Twitter account was permanently suspended for “abusive behavior,” but the company didn’t go into specifics.
