Volmarias posted:When I was an idiot child, I went to traffic court without understanding how you're supposed to make a deal with the prosecutor to plead guilty, and didn't realize that I had to actually bring money to pay the traffic ticket at the time of judgement. The consequence for that was having to choose between spending a night in jail, or calling my parents and telling them that I had blatantly lied to them about where I was going to that afternoon and please bring money thanks. My consequences were IMMEDIATE; there was no "ah, well, in three years you'll see what happens when you still have mostly the same life as before." Your consequences were immediate but also, excuse me for saying, pretty loving trivial? Like even if you'd spent a night or weekend in jail: that's jail, not prison. Substantial difference. Alex Jones otoh will have a pretty substantial fortune taken away. That's a lot more punishment. If instead of a traffic ticket you'd killed someone, you wouldn't have gotten a one-afternoon court session to decide your fate. It can take years for people to be convicted of murder. Even poor people. Volmarias posted:Well, there's the whole blatant perjury thing, which is in fact a criminal act, AIUI. I can't speak for others, but it really is the fact that if I were to blatantly ignore a court order, lie to the court under oath, hold it in contempt, etc, I wouldn't just have it added to a tally of things that will eventually matter. FW already explained how pretty much nobody, poor or rich, goes to jail for perjury in civil cases. The punishment is losing the case, or allowing someone to re-sue after you won the first time and they get evidence of perjury. But here's another difference to think about : if you walked into traffic court and did the suck my dick you fuckman routine to the judge, they'd happily jail you for contempt. That would be an added punishment over and above your traffic ticket. But the judge couldn't imprison you for life or fine you a million dollars, no matter how much of an rear end in a top hat you were being. Alex Jones if facing worse than a night in jail. The judges, even if they might like to jail him for contempt, want to make sure the big punishment happens. A night in jail is nothing by comparison. Taking away hundreds of millions is the goal.

Jones was warned by the judge multiple times for lying on the stand and called her a pedo cabalist on the air while the trial was going on. I just want one toe in the fine grinder of justice, just a little bit of consequences, as a treat.

You lost the case! You went to court for a reason -- whether to get something by suing, or defending yourself in a suit against you -- and you got your rear end handed to you. "Ah yes, Jones instantly lost his case and the jury didn't buy his antics and slapped him with one of the largest judgments in US history for this sort of tort, but he didn't get referred to the local DA for a misdemeanor perjury charge so obviously he got away with it" is pretty loving brokebrained, imo.

This thread promised me I'd get to see "alex jones is turbofucked because he decided to do a few defamation against the parents of kids killed in Sandy Hook. How hosed? Lets watch" back in july of 2022. I have yet to see him get turbofucked. He seems mildly inconvenienced and if anything less upset than normal for him.

The blood pressure increase from all these trials has probably taken at least a couple years off his already rapidly diminishing life. Like there's no better revenge than living well, and there's no greater schadenfruede than dying mad.

Alex Jones is facing issues and has lost cases that in the future will, eventually, impact him. As of yet, though, he hasn't really faced any real major impact on his life - he's still living pretty much the same (maybe even more vacations than normal!) and doing the same things he has always been doing.

If Jones died from a chili induced coronary tonight, he'd arrive at Troll Valhalla, resplendent, having lived a life of inflicting misery and having never suffered for it, with a capstone of having his horribleness quantized and declared the #1 best of all time. By all means defend the system when it actually does something. So far, it's just threats and posturing. It's all smirk, no pain. He successfully made a mockery of the legal system until the moment it actually hurts him. Going from a billionaire to a millionaire is like retiring from being stupid rich to set-for-life. That's not a punishment. He won't change his behavior. It won't dissuade anyone else from doing what he did. It won't make the families whole. It's not justice. Maybe normal and expected, but not justice.

So anyone more familiar with US bankruptcy laws, can the IRS still go after him for the almost certain massive tax fraud he's committed, after he's gone through a bankruptcy proceeding or is that all clean slated by that? Seems like that must be more than a few people at the IRS who are aware that Jones is a massive crook and his books are likely dirty as hell, so it seems odd haven't heard anything from them yet (unless we have and I just missed it).

rotinaj posted:How much of this was spurred by the new york times article that was a wet blanket and made it sound like alex is already free and clear? I'm assuming it's the 100% literal entire recorded human history of most rich people. We have all personally seen hundreds of times of these people getting off with a slap on the wrist. It is extremely rare for a rich person to experience true justice. I was ecstatic when Bannon and Stone went to prison. Finally something ACTUALLY happened and I can see it with my own eyes. Welp.... fooled again. I honestly can't blame the doomers. Jones will still be living a better life (monetarily) than absolutely all of us for the rest of his. Sure, he might be being tortured inside, but I don't care at all. He needs to be punished. Severely. For everyone to see and take note. This is all just imaginary numbers he's moving around and hiding. Numbers that big mean nothing to me. He's rich beyond belief. You've all seen what the judges think his livable salary should be which would make any of us rich instantly. He won't truly be punished unless he This whole thing is going to take years and him losing his empire and followers and everything is NOT NEARLY ENOUGH. That's the absolute least he should experience. He is an honest to god monster and should not be allowed in society. edit: sorry for dooming but it's really frustrating sometimes
