I'll believe it when I see the repo men dragging him out of his own studio
Just slowly disassembling the building and set piece by piece around and moving it elsewhere as he never stops ranting
A small-time farmer in East Texas pays $50 at a bankruptcy auction for twelve storage lockers full of nutritional supplements and spends the next month feeding them to his pigs. To the surprise of everyone (except Jones and his listeners), the supplements actually work as advertised. The pigs acquire super intelligence and super strength, escape captivity, and bring Texas to its knees.
Directed by Kevin Smith, starring himself as Alex Jones, and Matthew McConaughey as the farmer
lmfao, just keep piling it on like every other week. Two weeks pass, roll a couple 20 sided die, consult the table, boom. $391 million more.
Feels like every day there is another billion dollar settlement. Major deja vu.
The "Knowledge Fight" podcast guys strike me as turbo-libs, but listening to the depostion hearings for the Connecticut case has been comedy gold. Alex cannot answer a single question without devolving into prolonged reactionary ramblings.

Dan is kinda lib and very concerned about propriety, Jordan very much is not.
"Mr. Jones, would you consider the judge presiding over this case a Sandy Hook vampire?"
"Objection!"
:alex-aware: "I.... I know we didn't provide fraudulent financials..."
so it won't get lost at a bottom of a thread with a removed comment at the top, i'm gonna make some things clear for anyone else thinking about defending alex jones
1: he was sued by the families of dead children. 15 plaintiffs. Not 1 kid's parents. 15 plaintiffs.
2: he was sued for defamation since he claimed these people were crisis actors and anti-gun activists. This resulted in them getting harassment and death threats. One of them had to move several times, and keeps getting filmed in public. One of them sent DNA samples to prove that the dead child was actually his in court.
3: he is not being "scapegoated" by "the justice system" since it is the families of dead children suing him.
4: he is not being "punished for what his audience did." since his audience members who harrased and sent death threats were also sued in several incidents
5: this piece of shit is facing punitive damages not just for his defamation of these dead kids' families, but for wasting the court's time by constantly trolling and doubling down and lying and playing dumb and giving monologues and doing self-promotion in the middle of a court case
6: this guy is not off the hook just for being "mentally ill" or "alcoholic"
7: this guy is not a scrappy independent journalist fighting for his life. He is a multimillionaire advertiser and reactionary demagogue from a prominent right wing family with multigenerational petroleum industry wealth and he lives on a several acre plantation with orchards.
Alex Jones Forced to pay for my lunch on top of $1.6B court orders him to pay
All of the Sandy hook parents taking turns picking up Alex Jones by his ankles and shaking him upside down for his lunch money
He got fined more than all the enron executives for saying stuff MTG would say.
The justice system us always a farce but it seems cruel that they bother with this garbage you know? This won't end up helping the familes at all.
This won’t end up helping the familes at all.
The Families are the ones who sued him. Alex Jones is a man with an audience of millions of gullible reactionaries and he received one of his biggest surges in ratings of all time when he began to slander these people who
lost their fucking children in a mass shootingas "crisis actors" and "anti-gun democratic operatives" resulting in his audience members stalking these families, sending them death threats, harrassing them in public, and so on. Alex Jones repeatedly lied under oath, tried to distort the facts about this, and even after being found guilty refused to show any remorse. Fuck him. He is a fucking worm. Listen to the case and the deposition hearings. Several times in court he tried to use his testimony as an opportunity to advertise his show and products. He also kept going on air every evening both during and after the trial to slander the victims, the prosecution and the judgeThe justice system us always a farce but it seems cruel that they bother with this garbage you know?
This isn't a conspiracy by the justice system to oppress multimillionaire oil family heir and reactionary talk show host Alex Jones. It's the families who received death threats and harrasment from his audience as a result of his reckless lies about them coming together to sue him.
imagine whining about the "cruelty of the justice system" not when a homeless man gets 15 years for stealing a 100 dollar bill but instead when a snake oil salesman gets a slap on the wrist. It's the same as people crying about Kanye's "mistreatment."
He got fined more than all the enron executives for saying stuff MTG would say.
him, MTG, and the enron executives all deserve much worse than to be sued
who sued him? Say it. :xi-gun:
the mentally ill conservative journalist is such a weird scapegoat.
there's a thing called pleeing "not guilty by reason of insanity." he did not do this. He is not a "scapegoat."
I don't think they explicitly do, lol. Alex Jones not having the connections to get away with stuff when something like Chevron can doesn't mean it's a conspiracy against Alex Jones.
:brainworms:
anyone can predict a virus and immediate shock doctrine afterward. Watch this "I predict there will be a major holiday event at which people will die of alcohol poisoning."
I don't know why everyone is jumping all over this guy, just for pointing out that the psychic vampires are afraid of his meat-powered aura of truth and are engaging in astral plane attacks on his finances
Do you have any idea who Alex Jones even is, or what these lawsuits are even about?
Ok well that explains it. Let me give you a TL;DR:
Alex Jones on his shitty conspiracy theory show InfoWars claimed repeatedly that the Sandy Hook massacre never took place and that the parents were "crisis actors" paid by the feds. He claimed the massacre was a "false flag operation by the globalists" or other such shit.
The fans of his show of course lapped this up without question and proceeded to harass the poor grieving parents of the dead children. They did this for years and made their lives a living hell even as they were trying to cope with the losses of their dead children.
Alex Jones continued to peddle this misinformation for years. Him and his shitty idiot mouth breathing viewers did everything they could to (further) ruin the lives of the grieving parents of dead children.
Eventually the parents lawyered up and sued him in multiple different states for defamation. The first case in Texas resulted in ~$45 million in damages, the next one in Connecticut resulted in nearly $1.5 billion in damages.
Literally the only thing that will shut him the fuck up is to bankrupt him into the ground and ensure that his stupid fucking InfoWars show never sees the light of day ever again, and that is exactly what they are doing.
Tbh InfoWars had some potential for radicalizing people when it was oriented against Bush II, the War on Terror, NSA spying, and so on. But that was long ago, before it made a very clear break towards being nothing but a reactionary pipeline.
They went from "they're turning this country into a police state" to "actually we need to police brown people more".
:downbear: Infowars has never had potential, it's always been aligned with those Rockies white nationalist militia types.
:jesse-wtf:
they have to be doing it to shut him up
Yes, that is entirely the point.
fuck what a good username wasted on an absolute idiot
(plaidimir_lenin)
This doesn't strike you as weird? The courts useually fall over themselves to let a guy like him off the hook. If he got some normal penalties or jailtime it'd made sense. This makes it weirder than it was before
What's he gonna do, fund a hog revolution off supplement sales? They're just making an example out of him but he's as much of a no thoughts head empty chud as the rest of them. Give the tinfoil hat a rest.
I mean, he is going to burn out in a blaze of poorly treated mental illness and lively overdose on something. It just seems like he is a weird one to make an example of
imagine, if you will, a prizewinning hog with a greasy, glistening turd nestled perfectly between it humongous testicles
