Probably just shutting down a website critical of another right-wing douchebag.

I'm way more interested in why he bought goblinlove.com.

Just one of those late night purchases

it's alex jones, not jeff gerstmann

So you're saying he purchased goblin porn during working hours?

Misinformation doesn't take time off

me and my 3am bought domain agree. (I never bought a host and can't figure it out myself)

I've been tempted. Thankfully I always realize i have no idea what to do with it.
I'd love my own email, but the threat of having major email providers reject my emails stops me.

He better use that amazing domain. I can't have the email I wanted now.

You could ask the guys at the onion if they'd transfer it over to you. They seem to be fun blokes.

are we gonne talk about the “goblinlove” and “goblinnest” domains or pretend that never happened?

This is perhaps the most digestible introduction to Jones' "goblin" worldbuilding, presented as an indie folk song. Spoiler: its xenophobia/racism

Controlled opposition as usual. I made a website 'Alex Jones Exposed'. -Was at the top of search results for 2 months and did very well. Next thing I know its buried by all these fluff pieces.

Alex Jones and Rogan had some beef 5 years ago when Rogan had Jack Dorsey on his podcast. He probably bought the site hoping it would make a bigger splash in the news.

Wonder how upset Alex Jones was when he realized he misspelled "memekitchin .com"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

He doesn't cater to an audience that can spell so probably didn't care.
