Summary
Jarrod Fidden, an Australian entrepreneur living in Ireland behind a conspiracy-themed dating app, now runs Wide Awake Media, a major climate denial account on X (formerly Twitter).
With over 500,000 followers, including high-profile figures, the account spreads anti-climate and conspiracy narratives while monetizing its content.
Experts note the platform’s lax policies under Elon Musk enable such accounts to thrive in echo chambers of disinformation.
Wide Awake Media exemplifies how conspiracists pivot to climate denial for relevance and profit, as climate disinformation continues to grow alongside rising awareness of the climate crisis.
You’ve cracked the code! ‘Kill all nonwhites’ is exactly as bad as ‘eat the rich.’
Reasons don’t exist. Only action! So when a cop shoots a hostage instead of a hostage-taker, and people get really angry, we super geniuses roll our eyes - don’t you people like shooting? Didn’t you want cops to shoot someone? That’s still violence, dummies! You’re only seeing it from the victim’s POV! Which is surely identically valid to the terrorist’s POV, because questions never have answers.
“Their dictator is bad, my dictator is good!”
‘And opposing dictatorship makes you a dictator because otherwise this argument makes no goddamn sense.’
Yeah - you won’t understand.
You think ‘please ban fascists but not antifascists’ is a contradiction. This is not a me problem.
You might as well come in smirking, ‘An army to stop Hitler’s army? Wow, hypocrites much?’ You know it’s empty, effortless, all-purpose ‘both sides’ nonsense. You namedropped that fallacy. But you seem to think adding ‘nuh-uh’ is a rebuttal.
It’s all you’re worth.
It’d be nice if you cared about words, instead of handling the entire world in ad hominems.
That doesn’t make any sense - talk about “caring about words”!
“Here is the specific fallacy you keep doing, by insulting me personally instead of addressing the point you chose.”
“Nuh uh.”
