You know, I used to listen Joe Rogan's podcast back in the day, probably the first podcast I ever followed. Over time his politics started to become more and more evident and obnoxious, but the breaking point for me was when he started to shine the shield of Alex Jones, after all the Sandy Hook stuff. "I know him, he's a cool guy when he's not doing the persona", etc etc.
That's like saying Hitler was a cool guy when he wasn't doing the whole genocide persona. You should be proud of yourself for being smart enough to get out instead of letting him brainwash you
"He's a cool guy when he's not riling up a crowd to harass school shooting victims to benefit the political agenda of the worst people on the planet (a literal pedophile cabal)"
That he can milk this shit for over a decade before there are any consequences? And even after losing the case he could just transfer most of the assets to his parents and siphon millions from the company this way? Yes, he did learn a lot.
He nearly got away with it and he knows that the right wing will continue to fund him, because he foments hate and that's the only thing Republicans have that is close to a value or platform
He knows the only way he stays relevant is by being a clown and he also likely realizes he will never be taken more seriously than as a clown. I imagine that fucks your brain at some point
Right wingers will always flock to his rescue as long as he spews hate. He's not mentally ill. He's a perpetual grifter who has locked onto an endless stream of revenue as long as he never, ever changes his ways
Oh he's 100% a grifter. He's also always been a tinfoil hat type dude - with these dudes I wonder how much they believe what they say and with Alex Jones my suspicion is he does believe what he says
I mean, he's one of the true believers. He was screaming insane shit about George W. Bush decades ago. Say what you will about him, the guy isn't just a salesman, he's also a customer.
I mean, in a way, he has nothing left to lose. The sandy hook lawsuit has his balls in a bag, and iirc he has life long income garnishments that will continue to drain him to pay for it. So another lawsuit would just end up being in-line behind them. So i’m not sure what could be accomplished. I’d love to hear if anyone knows something I’m overlooking. but as I understand it, it would be the civil financial equivalent of stacking another life sentence onto someone who already has 20.
I think you are more or less correct regarding court ordered payments, but that wouldn't apply to fees you owe your legal team. I can't imagine any lawyers taking an Alex Jones case on contingency or pro bono. They'll be getting that money up front.

So Alex Jones shared a Pro-pedofile / Child torture video?

If he watched the show, he would know thats a lie. Mike got shot in the face, so he has nothing to do with the Original Child Clown Outlet

The man Jones is talking about is Tim Heidecker from the Tim & Eric show and numerous memes.

I'm surprised he didn't also accuse Tim of performing in drag for his Jan Skyler character.

Except what are they gonna sue him for now? The skin off his back? Oh hey, the skin off his back...

The skin of his back is worthless, but the torture of removing it will perhaps balance up for all the pain he caused the family after Sandy Hook.
