There Are No Girls on the Internet

Marginalized voices have always been at the forefront of the internet, yet our stories often go overlooked.

We need monuments to all of the identities that make being online what it is. So let’s build them.

That sum represents a tiny percentage of the profits he’s made lying about their tragedy on his show Infowars for the past decade. But even while on trial for lying, he still couldn’t stick to the truth. Join our newsletter: Tangoti.com/newsletter Want to support the show? (thank you!) Subscribe, tell a friend, leave a review,
