He was featured in Jon Ronson's Adventures With Extremists in 2001. By then he was an established nutjob, but was unattached to right wing politics per se, and more focused on the ruling class at large. When I started seeing more of his antics surface the last few years, I kept thinking "This dude is now mainstreamish? And a right wing shill to boot? Whoa didn't see that coming"
― octobeard, Thursday, 15 October 2020 19:53 (three years ago) link
Also recently watched his bit in Waking Life not knowing it was him for certain but it certainly reminded me of him... and made me feel uncomfortable
yeah its weird to see that public access clip or that bit in waking life and remember a time when 'black helicopter conspiracy theorist' types seemed apolitical. Like obviously its a right wing ideology at its core, but seeing Jones in Waking Life back whenever that was I'd never expect that guy would someday be a passionate supporter of a sitting president
― turn the jawhatthefuckever on (One Eye Open), Thursday, 15 October 2020 20:32 (three years ago) link
yeah it was more fun when he wasn't a shill, just a weirdo. I used to find him quite funny but I can't watch him anymore without being annoyed

For me it's also the difference where 20 years ago, he would just be the guy propping up the counter at his local watering hole that the other regulars wish would shut the fuck up, instead he's got a rabid following of thousands of morons.

this feel good. like, something good happened here. I’d like to think it might give pause to some of the worst actors but I’d suspect the top tier guys who are heavily lawyered (thanks to deep-pocket funders like Mercers, et al) will be able to put it all on ice in the court system if it becomes A Thing

i just came up with a conspiracy theory and it kind of makes sense, so i hope everyone will just start saying this and make it true:
what if alex jones lost this case on purpose, in this manner, to avoid setting a legal precedent that would negatively affect other crazy rightwing media people?
i remember being interested in this case back when it started, millions of years ago, because of that possibility. but he isn't being held liable for damages because of that, technically, it's because he didn't cooperate with the Discovery process:
A Texas judge ruled the far-right conspiracy theorist and Infowars host Alex Jones is liable for damages to families of children killed in the 2012 Newtown massacre in two lawsuits, after he repeatedly refused to produce documents for the court cases.The rulings are “default judgments”, or rare de facto losses, because of Jones’s repeated failure to comply with discovery, or the process of producing documents for a court case. The court will convene a jury to consider damages.“The court finds that defendants’ failure to comply … is greatly aggravated by [their] consistent pattern of discovery abuse throughout similar cases pending before this court,” wrote the Texas judge, Maya Guerra Gamble, in a judgment reported by CNN.“The court finds that defendants’ discovery conduct in this case is the result of flagrant bad faith and callous disregard for the responsibilities of discovery under the rule,” she wrote.

what i heard and what many people are saying is that he did this on purpose to help his lying friends
