Pascal Najadi's claim that his father co-founded the World Economic Forum is a misrepresentation intended to give him outsized importance.

Pascal Najadi is someone who's made some of the rounds doing COVID conspiracy content and pushing Bitcoin. So adding a layer that his dad was the co-founder of the World Economic Forum does tend to give him a bit of outsized importance, given that Klaus Schwab is this season's grand villain. It's unfortunately not true, but good for a story.

John Fleetwood misrepresents Merck's stock ownership to falsely connect the Ebola vaccine manufacturer to BlackRock and the World Economic Forum.

Fleetwood has taken some stuff he's got out of context about Merck's stock in order to connect the manufacturer of the Ebola vaccine to BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street, which then allows him to connect it to the World Economic Forum and the boogeyman of the season, Klaus Schwab. Seems like there's an easier path to this.

Alex Jones misrepresents Kirshner's comments by claiming he advocates for sex with one-year-olds.

I'm not going to get too deep into the weeds, and I'm not investing any energy in defending Kirshner's comments, but Alex is misrepresenting them. Kirshner was talking about alleged reports in, quote, some cultures of grandmothers filleting children to calm them down when they're colicky. He says that he doesn't know if these reports are true or if it's an effective treatment, but if those things were true, he doesn't understand what would be wrong about that action. That's messed up. I don't agree with Kirshner, and I think it's a bad line of inquiry to go down, but also, Alex is not dealing with what he's actually saying.

Alex Jones and John Stadtmiller misrepresent the details of the Georgia militia case to create a martyr narrative.

And Alex and John Statmiller are turning into a martyr here. Like, this is all nonsense. It's all just part of the, what I would call the lone wolf social contract that Alex engages in. You know, like, these things happen, people get caught, and we will do our best to make sure that these are presented as fake in order to make it easier for the next person not to get caught.

Harrison Smith misrepresents a researcher's words to yellowbite immigration and stress white aggrievement.

Harrison is completely misrepresenting this researcher's words because his agenda is to yellowbite immigration to the United States and stress white aggrievement, not to cover any of these issues in a meaningful way that helps the audience better understand the world and hopefully pushes public opinion towards better policy preferences. He's trying to make white people scared of non-white people, and he's trying to use the prop of the Chinese state oppression in order to justify his shoddy arguments.

InfoWars misrepresented the study by claiming clinical research studies were performed when they were not.

This is a real problem because the website for InfoWars team, Alex's multi-level marketing operation, they just reposted AL International's press release in full, and it literally says that they did, quote, clinical research studies, which they did not. So that's probably bad. This is a misrepresentation on its face and is probably illegal.

Alex Jones intentionally misrepresented a speaker's comments to falsely claim he was accused of threatening shooting victims' families.

Alex is saying that this dude is saying that Alex is threatening to kill the families of victims of shootings and stuff like that. Okay. But really, the conversation this guy is having is about, like, what do you do with obviously bad... Like, what do you do with that? And so he uses Alex as one example and then says, and... The sort of people who threaten the families of victims of stuff like that. He's not saying that Alex is one of them, but he intentionally misrepresents whatever this guy's language is. Alex is a companion piece to this bullshit. Right, right. Alex is an example of something bad, and then the people who threaten people's families are another tendril, another cross-section of this. And so Alex is like, this guy is saying that I do that. He's not saying that.

Tom Horne misrepresented an interview with Guy Consul Magno to support his conspiracy theories.

Yeah, so he is completely misrepresented the interview that he had with him in order to bolster all this stuff, which I bring up partially because it's related, but also mostly because it is the sort of behavior that these people do. They take people entirely out of context or just make stuff up and hope you can just roll the bones and no one will notice. Hope they never find out and hope no one looks into it.

14 Nov 2017
Alex Jones misrepresents the content of books by globalists like David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski.

I've read these things and they don't say what he acts like they say. So the fact that he is talking about how these globalists put out these things about how they're going to poison the water supply and they think you're too stupid to read them. It's like, Alex, you're misrepresenting those.

27 Feb 2017
Alex Jones misrepresented Chris Cuomo's comments about trans bathroom access as advocating for exposing children to sexual predators.

Chris Cuomo, when he was talking about the situation, he was saying that it is intolerance to not allow trans people into the bathroom of their identity. He was not saying... That a daughter of some hypothetical person is intolerant because she doesn't want to see a dick. That is not what he was saying. That's misrepresenting it, and he's calling people to action to do something, even though it's only over Twitter, that's still probably illegal.
