Dang It Bhabhi! posted:couldn't do it. made it 30 minutes. god it's interminable. I might have to wait for a Formulaic Objections episode on this, since my office mate and I have a veto rule on what we listen to and she put a hard NO on a 6 hour deposition. It would be nice to have a little commentary, since my legal expertise is basically zero. Your Gay Uncle fucked around with this message at 21:20 on May 2, 2022 |

In reality, I am not surprised by anyone right wing looking towards a monarch or authoritarian. Single individuals or groups can totally keep the status quo while whole communities and democracies directly leads to change.

I mean, he's been like this his whole career. All this has been laid bare. No one's listening to his stochastic screeds cause you can't actually listen to him because his worldview is nonsensical and contradictory. It's not actionable because the enemies are undefinable and untouchable. Globalists may echo certain groups and certain power figures, but they're actually a coalition of inter-dimensional alien beings that are trying to destroy humanity's ascent. Or they're devils trying to stop God's plan. Alex' calls to action are ultimately to keep him on air, his audience ultimately listening out of identity rather than any sort of ideological commitment, as any principles or policy goals have long since reversed themselves as everything melts away into grievance. There's just nothing left to learn, man. I donno how Dan does it.

Regrettably, enough people do listen. Dan does seem to have a general list of the people who were stochastic agents of Alex, while Elizabeth Williamson made a good case that the Comet Ping Pong gunman was also one of his, but these agents' interpretations of what Alex seems to want from them is usually a confused mess. It is like they were reacting to the general "vibe" of what Alex was saying, but had to fill in most of the blanks with their own ideas; both for the impetus towards violence in the first place (as designed by this process) but also in what the violence is even for at all. It does paint Alex's whole "all gun violence that paints my allies in a bad light is a government conspiracy were they turned a mentally ill person into a 'patsy'" thing in a different light. Alex would certainly know all about that, though not for the reasons he'd like. I do wonder when the calls towards violence generally started on the show. My impression of the current 03 investigation suggests it wasn't really a factor at the time, but we know it happened at least since Sandy Hook.

It's a little amusing but maybe also a little bit sad for Dan how early in the run of the show he was sick of covering modern Alex Jones and wanted every episode to be from the past.

Is Sandy Hook the reason why Alex was deplatformed? If he didn't hang his hat on that would he be more powerful now or still in the poo poo?

It's impossible to say with any certainty, but I'm sure he'd have found another beehive to stick his dick in. If nothing else, it's difficult to imagine a timeline where his platform survives COVID.

Yeah I’m like at the tail of end of cancer killing me. So while I was in chemo for a bit I binged most of this and I have been traveling a lot so tons of free time to listen to stuff. When you are close to dying your mental state doesn’t really matter anymore plus I have learned I don’t sleep much at all anymore so when I wake up I just binge listen to podcasts and grind video games to kill time before I die. I’m just happy I discovered this podcast in time so I can listen to Alex start to go down in real time. I have lost real friends over him. I researched all about him about 20 years ago and was trying to convince my best friend to stop listening to him but it just ruined our friendship. That dude is a Q guy now and crazy as ever.

Q and other right wing horseshit like it have cost a lot of us in the same ways. Covid nearly killed my father. My step-mom is anti-vax even though she watched him nearly die on a vent and she saw that the vaccine did no harm to him. When he caught omicron early this year, she tried to get him to take ivermectin. She doesn't mean bad - she's just lived her whole life in a bubble and the information from that bubble is garbage. Her mind is poisoned to the point where my father and her just simply do not talk about certain topics because there will be disagreements. I agree that I can't wait to see Jones finally face his day in court. It's a shame they were able to again sidetrack things with yet another improper removal to federal court.

Loved how at the end of the last episode, Roger Stone came on to complain about getting immediately banned for re-registering on twitter (just like pillow guy did), and before he came on Alex Jones started on a spiel about how his ban was FAKE NEWS before Stone had to correct him that it actually happened and explain why he did it.  Bad thing happen to conservative = fake news I guess

I am tempted to go through and calculate what percentage of Wednesdays have had a new episode since he announced years ago that there would be no more Wednesday episodes.

I believe it was the second week of April 2018 when the suit was first filed. I swear it’s like April 17th or 18th. He was also sued by the yogurt people in 2017 that one was hilarious. He was freaking out on air about it. That’s like in the #30-#40 episodes of knowledge fight. I can’t remember which ones specifically.
