I go to the Smithsonian archives and read the source material in Latin
Anyway, back to the point. I whole heartedly believe that exposing someone like Nick Fuentes on a livestream is a net positive that turns more people away from him than gains him followers.
It's a cynical person who thinks platforming bad ideas will make them spread. Sunlight.. disinfectant...
The best, recent example I have is Nick Fuentes. I'd only read from journo pieces making vague accusations (referencing other journo pieces) that he's a white nationalist, or seen clips of him trolling CPAC, so I've always been curious what he's actually about.
Seeing a mainstream interview with Louis Theroux and debate livestream with Destiny quickly outs him as a white nationalist with an incoherent worldview.
If the only way to hear his ideas, directly from his mouth, are on his platform in a dark corner of the internet you're only going to get his one-sided propaganda.
Could be an interesting case. reddit is already doing this for 'real time' conversations (via F5 refresh) in respective subreddits during games, speeches, conferences, etc.
> Better than someone knocking on your door or calling during supper though right?
Please don't pitch yourself as a lesser of two evils. And I can at least cuss out / slam the door on a solicitor. And they aren't going to wake me up in the middle of the night.
Follow up question: do you respect the 'Do not call' registry?
> Hustle tries its best to only work with organizations that are reaching out to people who actually want to hear from them
But I can still receive unsolicited texts, correct? If organization X discovers my phone number, they can add it to their distribution list without my consent?
Please don't bring social justice theory into a factual discussion of a company's missteps and negligence that resulted in a serious breach of its systems.
