This thread is also subject to a number of reports - rather than pick through it, hacking about/out those accusations of lies, pouts and general butthurtery I'm going to give it one last chance to get back in line. As an aside, I've implemented an 8-post limit on quote depth. The near-unreadable example above should demonstrate why.

How don't I "know any better?" And yes, I am stubborn in that I won't look the other way from something wrong.

Vegetable:
How am I right wing? How is supporting Biden and Clinton right wing? How is supporting a gadfly like Jones not right wing?

If you actually listened to some of the things I've said the last couple of years, you wouldn't have to ask that question. I'm done beating my head against the wall. This is my last post on politics here.

P.S. I've never once expressed support for Alex Jones" positions.

 Alex Jones said he was too sick for a deposition, and then taped his own show. 

Alex Jones’s lawyers told a judge on Tuesday that the Infowars founder was too sick to answer questions under oath at his court-ordered deposition.  But Jones was at his recording studio in Austin in the middle of broadcasting four hours of “The Alex Jones Show.”  Just as his lawyers were about to argue he was too sick to testify, Jones warned listeners that a cabal of global elites plan to start a nuclear war or otherwise trigger a global crisis in the coming months to cover up massive financial crimes they’ve committed over the decades.

So, not only is Alex Jones a liar, but a coward.

Figures.

Nuclear war is always on the cards at any point in time whilst nuclear weapons exist. There is literally a countdown of doom clock that international countries have & hold to measure this level of doom.

Alex Jones does bend reality to his will somewhat, for his own gain - but his intentions are good. He believes most of what he says.

He sometimes fails to assess the impact of his words on his audience & he has suffered emotionally for that, by being cancelled.

I relate to that sentiment

"Cancelled" does not mean what you think it means.  Alex Jones is being called out and held accountable for the lies he has told about the Sandy Hook massacre.  He is not being obliterated from history.

You are not being cancelled when:

• People ignore you.
• People disagree with you.
• People criticize you.
• People correct you.
• People hold you accountable.

Free Speech is indeed a sacred right, but it should not be confused with a license to tell lies or threaten violence.  Further, the right to Free Speech does not guaranty you will be free from correction, criticism, disagreement, or accountability, nor does it guaranty you the privilege of having an audience.

The idea that we will not truly have free speech until those who criticize, correct, disagree, or hold others accountable are made to shut up is a completely irrational idea.

Alex Jones is still a villain . . .

The families of the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting have rejected Alex Jones' offer to settle with each of them for $120,000, describing it as "transparent and desperate" attempt by the conspiracy theorist to avoid public scrutiny for falsely claiming the massacre was a hoax.

"The so-called offer is a transparent and desperate attempt by Alex Jones to escape a public reckoning under oath with his deceitful, profit-driven campaign against the plaintiffs and the memory of their loved ones lost at Sandy Hook," the families said.

On March 24, Jones failed to appear for a deposition hearing while claiming he was too unwell to attend.  However, Jones still appeared on his InfoWars show in the days before and after the court-ordered hearing.

In response, plaintiffs Erica Lafferty and William Sherlach submitted a court request for Jones to be held in contempt for failing to appear at his deposition on March 25.

Alex Jones now faces fines for non-compliance.

A Connecticut judge on Wednesday said Infowars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones will be fined $25,000 to $50,000 per weekday until he appears for a deposition in a lawsuit brought by relatives of some victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

Jones cited a health problem last week when he defied an order by Judge Barbara Bellis to attend a deposition.  Bellis said there wasn’t enough evidence that Jones was too ill to attend and found him in contempt of court.

Bellis also ruled that the deposition will now be held at the office of the families’ lawyers in Bridgeport, Connecticut, instead of Texas, where Jones lives.

Alex Jones was being questioned Wednesday (2022-04-06) by lawyers for families of Sandy Hook victims in Connecticut, where a judge had ordered the Infowars host to face mounting fines until he appeared for a deposition.

“It’s just totally insane to sit there and watch this happen and to watch them lick their lips and lick their chops and think we’re going to finally shut Alex Jones down,” Jones said. “These people want to put us in prison for our speech.”

A spokesperson for the families and their lawyers at Bridgeport-based Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder declined to comment on the deposition Wednesday.

Does Alex Jones mention Freemason, Demolay or Satanic Church? If not he is likely a gatekeeper, gives out some truth but not all the truth.

ALEX JONES IS A FREEMASON SPELLCASTER

They have been doing it a long time. They control everything you see hear and read. They like to mock you.
Billy Joel - We Didnt Start the Fire

Diagnosis: [Alex Jones is] The ur-loon.  Extremely famous and frighteningly influential, but one suspects that he would be able to convince anyone who were not already at least mildly unhinged.  Jones may be partly in it for the money, but there is little question that he actually believes much of whatever falls out of his mouth.

Alex Jones Pays $75K in Fines Before Deposition in Sandy Hook Lawsuit

Right-wing radio host Alex Jones has begun to appear for depositions after paying $75,000 in fines in the lawsuit filed against him by family members of Sandy Hook victims over his repeated claims that the 2012 school shooting that killed 20 children and six staff members was a hoax.

The InfoWars founder skipped depositions last month, citing health issues, but last week a Connecticut judge found him in contempt of court, ruling that there was insufficient evidence to prove he was not medically well enough to be deposed.  Judge Barbara Bellis said Jones would be fined $25,000 starting last Friday [2022-04-01], increasing by $25,000 each weekday that he did not appear for questioning.

Court records show that Jones paid fines of $25,000 Friday [2022-04-01] and an additional $50,000 Monday [2022-04-04] before complying with the court order.  He appeared for questioning in a deposition starting Tuesday [2022-04-05] that was set to continue Wednesday [2022-04-06].

One thing about Jones, is that his real natural voice that he talks in or does he always play it up?
