I visited with my family in rural Missouri recently. Alex Jones and InfoWars is gospel to them. I was amazed at how many times cited him as an authority on various topics. I thought they were joking, but apparently, Obama made a promise with his father before his passing that he would destroy the United States. Oh, and of course, Obama is Satan, and Trump was sent by God to protect us all. Of course.
- kstrauser 6mo agoGrew up in Springfield, posting this from California. There's a reason for that.
- dfxm12 6mo agoAs of even more recently, Jones believes Trump is under demonic influences.
- selimthegrim 6mo agoMaybe that explains the video Trump posted
- jimt1234 6mo agoObama got to Trump now, too?! LOL
- jancsika 6mo agoIt's your duty as a Hacker News to subtly introduce the Free Software Foundation and/or GNU into a conversation with them. When they ask about it, throw a bunch of breathless praise on Stallman hacking the laser printer, building an OS from scratch, predicting DRM, fighting against cellphone surveillance, etc. Tell them you'll send them a link. Then link them to the Alex Jones interview with Richard Stallman. (It's a pretty good interview, btw.) It's like hiding broccoli in a chocolate bar they were going to eat anyway.
