Knowledge Fight's coverage of his legal troubles is great. It's truly stunning how unprepared him and his minions were. Listening to them flounder in court is amazing.
Hell yeah Knowledge Fight. Fantastic podcast.
For anyone out of the loop, Alex Jones is a shitty, lying, scamming monster that put people through hell with just his Sandy Hook bullshit alone, but he also has 20+ years of non stop truly abhorrent behavior.
Fun fact: one of the plaintiffs from the Sandy Hook case who he still hasn't paid a single dollar of the millions of dollars that he owes to, Erica Lafferty, has cancer and had to start a GoFundMe to cover treatment costs while he takes expensive vacations with security detail, because he's a wealthy, paranoid fuck. How neat is that?
Fuck Alex Jones and fuck anyone still defending Alex Jones.
It's kinda insane that his Sandy Hook stuff is among his least egregious rhetoric, it's just what left him most legally exposed. Some of the shit he's said would get him beaten to the edge of death several times over in any remotely decent group of people. It's truly appalling.
I went and watched the many-hours-long source material; I could watch those ding-dongs get bitched at for hours. Grape job!
