It's just so obvious what is going on. Of course they have to give Jones and others strikes and make a big deal out of it. It gives them credibility and solidarity of their moronic followers and also some exposure to potentially new people who have the feeling that something might be wrong in the official narrative and are looking for alternative sources. A win-win situation. Success on all fronts. The real truthers are either going off youtube or have to be so careful with their words that they are shut up effectively. We will have a short window of time where we still can preach to the choir on steemit, now to a few hundred people instead of ten thousands, but once steemit becomes big enough to turn into a real threat, this will go away as well. There are already some topics you better don't talk about on steemit either, if you don't want your channel or reputation destroyed...
