Sell the labubu and pay the sandy hook survivors, fucking worm.

How does he still have any assets at all? He would only be allowed enough to eat gruel for the rest of his life.

[–] yeather@lemmy.ca 26 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Texas law allows him to keep certain assets like his home and car.

[–] Akasazh@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure labubu aren't covered by that

Still grifting supplements and gold.

Beyond that: He tries to appeal every lawsuit, drawing out the process, meanwhile he moves his assets to where they are out of reach of the law, probably still hoping that Trump will ~~pardon~~ help him one day. Poor guy, it's not going to happen.

Can't pardon someone who hasn't been convicted of a crime. He was sued not prosecuted

he was hiding his assets through his friends, families, shell companies.

A lot of the conspiracy podcast bros that thought the Clinton's ran an underground pedophiles ring in some random pizza shop are really fuckin quiet about the epstein files. They sound like a church mouse in a fuckin library.

Between 2012 and 2014, me and my skeptic friends made a joke conspiracy theory, that claims conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones are paid agents by an actual conspiracy to make conspiracy theories look bad, so they won't be found out, or at least the wrong target will be hated by the masses. I'm more and more sure, that it might been something real.

There are a few pentagon-employed UFO disinfo agents who were either identified or simply admitted it. The drama definitely wouldn’t have ended there.

[–] mirshafie@europe.pub 12 points 3 weeks ago

I'm pretty sure corporate conglomerates and intelligence agencies fund or otherwise aid conspiracy nuts in order to construct cover for real conspiracies.

The conspiracy reason is he's owned by biggly now so he can't go agaisnt trump

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 30 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Why would he go against Trump? He has no reason to want to lose his core audience of Trump cultists.

pulled a major 67

The most Boomer trying to use kid slang thing I've heard in a while.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

GenX. Boomers were our parents and the oldest are hitting 80 right now.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

Any gen can have Boomer energy.

Why is he not living in a refrigerator box at this point?

[–] zebidiah@lemmy.ca 27 points 3 weeks ago

Because there is no justice in this country

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 4 points 3 weeks ago

Because he's their boy.

Someone, someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.

Labubu is making our Obamas gay. 7/11 was an inside job.

Obligatory Knowledge Fight. “It’s time to pray.”

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

I've been keeping up to date wrt AJ only because of those 2 guys. The analyses are always precise yet entertaining.

They also make the point made by OOP in every episode. It was never about freedom or speaking truth to power. It was always about hating on others.

[–] BrundleFly2077@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 weeks ago

The is latest episode is a hoot. I’ve always appreciated the way the Dan brings it back over and over again to how AJ has turned his back on everything that made him who he was.

Listening over time has really showed me how mutable the beliefs of his ilk can be. How utterly self-serving every claim.

[–] criss_cross@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago

Better justice would be him disappearing from all platforms never to make money with his likeness again.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 14 points 2 weeks ago

is he telling us he couldnt "perform with a labubu"

[–] PiraHxCx@lemmy.ml 13 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

I was shocked when I discovered it was him in the car in Waking Life

[–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 16 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

He was just a normal somewhat amusing crazy person before the right wing audience capture turned him into a monster. Waking Life was made at a very different time in Austin.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

I would say it was more that Alex Jones helped further enmonsterify the right wing than it was they changed him.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

I disagree. He's been honing this for over 3 decades. He started talking shit in the 90s. Only his targets have changed somewhat, but his hatemongering remained the same (if somewhat invalidated now that his guy is in power).

AFAIR his father is also of questionable convictions? the KnowledgeFight guys bring that up sometimes.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago

Completely agree, It was always a grift to him. Even if he said stuff that resonated with a leftist audience one time doesn't actually mean it is the true him. The true him is whatever political drivel makes him the most money and that is always the right wing.

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Meanwhile Alex Jones now debunks Candice Owen’s conspiracies…

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 6 points 3 weeks ago (4 children)

Oh darn. And she was onto such important issues too... /s

Just goes to show, in a sea of misinformation, everybody's a shill.

Hi, I don't feel like I know what's going on. Can someone explain the post? Why is Alex Jones doing this? Everything feels like a fever dream.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 weeks ago

Honestly no idea why he is doing this other than severe lack of funds. Just found it funny tbh

Some said Alex Jones is Bill Hicks.

Ha.

I don't even think Alex Jones is Alex Jones any more.

He saw the real deal coming and wasn't up for the risks.

[–] trager_bombs@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

You're welcome for this accursed continuation
