Alternative Influence Network
The Alternative Influence Network (AIN) is an online political community on YouTube consisting of the Intellectual Dark Web and the alt-right/alt-lite.
As with conservatives and classical liberals in general, the AIN has been demonized by the mainstream press.[1][2] YouTube, despite suppressing the AIN,[3][4] is accused by leftists of being a network for radicalization and providing a platform for right-wing extremists.[5]
Since they have been frequently targeted by it, members of the Alternative Influence Network strongly opppose Big Tech.[6][7] Hunter Avallone, an establishment conservative, refuses to even acknowledge Big Tech's existence, and attacked the Alternative Influence Network for doing so.[8] Fox News, which according to classical liberal member of the AIN Tim Pool has had the most to gain from YouTube's newest algorithm changes,[9][10][11] has praised YouTube for directing viewers away from AIN content, which is smeared as "conspiracy theories."[12]
