This rigged trope is so tiring. You lost fair and square
Fuck those fat punching bags. In their mouths
Instructions unclear. Does fist or penis go in mouth?

I thought it was supposed to be a punishment

I hate this timeline, because you just know that Trump is going to give a metal to this asshole before he leaves office, just like he did with Limbaugh.
Trump is going to give a metal to this asshole
I hope it's cylindrical and moving very fast hehe
Well, they were of great service to him
Alex Jones deserves a metal. A lead, to be precise.
Or a depleted uranium
Back about 25 years ago Jones was very anti fascist. Wonder what happened to completely ignore the actual fascists. Probably money from the fascists.
Getting booted from Coast to Coast didn't do him any favors.
Just the usual right-libertarian brainrot. You either become increasingly more authoritarian, a boring liberal, or a leftist, since right-libertarianism cannot defend itself against fascism.
The irony of saying that you're against the corrupt establishment and then going out and saying you're a big supporter of Donald Trump, the most corrupt, most established politician of the 2020's.
Just the 2020s? More like all of American history!
The rabbit hole is only about a thousand podcast episodes deep.
It’s time to pray!
In reality, it's time America to pay.
I don't want to hate black people, I renounce Jesus Christ!
What's your bright spot today, buddy?
My bright spot today is tennis!
USA a dictatorship January 20th, the next day Infowars will go back to Jones.
Bit fucking late isn't it? It was already sold. To The Onion.
They might sell it back, tho. For $12 decacillion.
The Onion should sell it back for exactly 1 googol, then pay the fines imposed to Google bey Russia, and finally, purchasing Google with the change.
For the record the "change" from that deal would be, measured to any reasonable degree of accuracy, exactly one googol.
It's really really hard to explain how numbers that big work.
Basically if you had ten trillion dollars, and you spent one single cent, you would have spent a greater proportion of your wealth than that fine would be as a proportion of one googol dollars.
And just to really put all that in perspective, let's talk about how big that fine actually is.
It's frequently said that it's more than the entire world's GDP, but that's not even close. Imagine if every single planet (not "habitable planet", just "planet") in our galaxy - all eight trillion of them - was terraformed to support life. Imagine if all of them had a population and economy like Earth. The entire galaxy's GDP wouldn't be enough.
In fact, a hundred of those galaxies wouldn't be enough. A thousand wouldn't be enough. A hundred thousand wouldn't be enough. It would take 20 million of those galaxies to pay that fine (at the time of reporting; by now its more galaxies than exist in all the known universe, because it doubles every day).
And all of that would still be a rounding error to a rounding error against one googol.
That's amazing!!
Elon thinks he's special.
Sadly he is indeed "special"...
