Meet Alex Moans, a conspiracy-peddling YouTuber who’s turned paranoia into profit. In the third episode of The Grifty Gang, CODE’s satirical animated series, we enter the warped world of online disinformation, where every fear is a business opportunity, and every fact is a threat to sales.
Alex isn’t just spouting theories about pigeons being government drones or 5G towers controlling your brain, he’s selling “Freedom Brain Shields” and water jugs that help to purify your mind.
This episode shines a spotlight on how disinformation isn’t just dangerous, it’s profitable. Behind every viral conspiracy is a merch shelf, and behind every fake “truth” is a checkout button.
When fear becomes a sales strategy, and trust is mined for clicks, we all pay the price.
Watch now, and share with your networks.
