In this installment, Dan tells Jordan about a road he went down recently thanks to stumbling onto a weird filing in his bankruptcy case, and what it reveals about bad approaches toward dealing with figures like Alex.
So when you come back, you don't want to come back to a mess, because then you're just like, ah, now I'm back to a mess.
Yeah, it's a bummer, right?
And I have this thing that I do and we do now together where in something things get regularly cleaned for the most part things get regularly cleaned, but then something will not get cleaned once and then it'll be that little pebble.
And then the next time it's like, ah, I'll get to that one, because it's more.
And then, and then until eventually it reaches a point where you actively don't want to clean it.
So today, as I said, we're going off the beaten path a little bit.
And we're going to discuss a little bit of an adventure that I went on a little bit accidentally and some of the feelings that came up because of it.
Okay.
So to just start things off, give a little bit of context for how this ball got rolling.
As Alex's bankruptcy case has gone on, I've tried to limit the amount that we cover that subject just for a number of reasons that I hope people understand.
Sure.
The first is that it largely surrounds issues that I don't know much about and aren't in the lane that I think you and I are suited to cover.
I don't think either of us are particularly good at business.
So I think that we're out of our depth when we're trying to get the weeds about the minutiae of business dealings, which is such a huge part of the bankruptcy stuff.
The second and larger part is that different people have different ideas about exactly how this should play out, and the precise details of it I largely think aren't our business.
Typically, this just isn't our turf, except the parts when Alex very clearly explains his strategy to defraud the courts on his show.
That's where most of our commentary has come in, because Alex is forcing our hand by laying out his schemes with the subtlety of a bond villain.
However, a couple months back, there was a filing in the bankruptcy case that I think helps highlight an important theme that I wanted to On march seventeenth, a lawyer from Ohio named Robert Wynne Young filed a motion in the case to appear pro hoc vice.
This is a request that's made when a person who's licensed to practice law in one place wants to act as a lawyer in another place, and the court allows it for a limited time.
Young isn't allowed to just be a lawyer in Connecticut now, but for the purposes of this case, he's in good standing as a lawyer, so the court has accepted his accreditation to appear as if he were licensed in Connecticut.
His motion for pro hoc vice was approved and the next day he filed a huge motion to intervene actively.
and requested that the whole process be put on hold so he could present evidence that the judgment against Alex was fraudulent and thus the bankruptcy was based on fraudulent debts that Alex could owe.
Initially, your thought might be that this is someone trying to defend Alex, and this was just another stalling tactic from the Infowars side, but it's actually a little bit crazier.
In his filing, Young lays out a dumb theory that Alex and his lawyers intentionally threw the case as part of an elaborate conspiracy where he was working with the other side's lawyers in a plot to destroy the First and Second Amendments.
Okay.
The reason for the argument is that Alex's lawyers never tried to get the initial case to be heard in federal court, specifically by asserting federal question jurisdiction.
They had tried to move the case to federal court, but only through claiming diversity jurisdiction, and that's the big tell that they were taking a dive.
Diversity jurisdiction is a thing someone can claim when they're being sued in another state's court by a person who lives in that state.
So in this case, Alex is from Texas, and he's being sued in Connecticut State Court by Connecticut plaintiffs.
So claiming diversity jurisdiction could be a way for him as a defendant to make sure that he's not going to have a local jury or court be biased against him as a out of state person.
Conversely, federal question jurisdiction is something that can be claimed when an action at the root of a case is something that's going to involve the Constitution or federal laws.
Young's claim is that this case involves the First Amendment, but the state court can't handle constitutional questions, so the fact that Alex didn't remove the case to federal court shows that he was throwing the case.
The issue is that the federal question jurisdiction is something that the plaintiffs can assert, not the defendant.
As the defendant, it's not Alex's place to claim federal question jurisdiction.
The only thing that he can do is assert constitutional reasons as a protection from the claims being made by the plaintiffs.
It's considered established law that the likelihood of a defendant using the Constitution or federal law as a defense, that's not enough for a defendant to claim federal question jurisdiction.
So even if the plaintiffs in this case would have wanted to do that, like say, hey, our argument is going to be rebutted by Alex saying this is First Amendment stuff, even that isn't enough to make this something subject to federal question jurisdiction.
It would have to be the plaintiffs saying the root of what we're saying is that our First Amendment right was violated in this case.
Then it would become something that's relevant for federal question jurisdiction.
Young's argument is that because Alex didn't do this thing that he couldn't have done, he threw the case, and it was all a plot in order to make sure that the claims about Sandy Hook would never have to be decided in court.
From the beginning, Alex was in on this, defaming these families because he knew to do so would eventually lead to a lawsuit which he would throw and would then destroy the First and Second Amendments.
Suffice it to say that Young is a mess, but because I was really curious about where he was coming from, I decided to watch his entire almost two hour PowerPoint presentation that he did with some channel on Rumble hosted by a guy who calls himself Victor Hugo.
It was all pretty dumb and most of the points that he brought up could be explained pretty easily by him engaging in what seems like very obvious misunderstandings.
But through the watching of this video, I was struck by something I realized that we haven't spent much time covering, which is the criticism of Alex that comes from the conspiracy side of the world.
There was something about how they were talking about Alex that interested me, probably because it was dumb, but also because when I started this show, it was partially because of this kind of vapid conspiracy based conspiracy of Alex and how that was the only thing that seemed to exist.
criticized him except for these kinds of conspiracy criticisms of Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure.
I was reminded of some feeling that I hadn't really engaged with in years, and it led me to exploring this Victor Hugo guy's channel a little bit more.
I'll just peel off the band-aid here and say that he's a huge anti Semite and he has an obsession with saying that he's quoting, noticing things.
Sure.
Noticing is a big anti Semitic dog whistle and buzzword.
It's meant to say like, I'm noticing that the Jews run the world, but you don't have to say that explicitly.
You know, you can kind of say, I'm noticing things.
For instance, let's say there's a big business guy like Larry Fink, and you want to talk about how he's Jewish, but you're not sure if the person you're talking to is on the same bigot wave as you.
So you say, I noticed something about that guy.
And if the person gets what you're saying, then you get to talk freely, you know?
Yeah, but if they don't recognize what you're saying, then you haven't shown too many of your cards and you can't, like, there's still plausible deniability.
I mean, the flip side of it is that it makes it way easier for these folks to communicate in ways that they are spreading these, you know, Nazi ideas in plain view that people, you know, it's the same thing that we talk about a lot with, you know, crypto language and oh sure.
unidentified
I mean, I just, you know, just keep them in the same place.
Anyway, Hugo, Victor Hugo, he started the show called The Noticing and on the first or second episode of it, depending on whether you trust the title or the content of the episode, Victor Hugo had Robert Wynne Young on as a guest to discuss the motion to reopen this Sandy Hook case through the bankruptcy court.
Well, first of all, Victor, welcome to the news network.
I appreciate the backup.
We needed help and your work and content has been second to none.
I mean, you're out there noticing and I appreciate it and I hope others do as well.
With that said, formalities aside.
from the facts, this particular episode is very important and what Wen Young is doing is very important because Alex Jones calls himself the most censored man alive, calls himself the tip of the spear and in fact is just another controlled opposition Jewish asset.
Probably Mossad ran or CIA ran and we know he's connected to the CIA and he's out there giving us eighty percent, ninety percent truth and then making us look crazy, stupid or even criminal now with the other ten percent.
And what he's doing by throwing this case and basically refusing to call it a First Amendment issue, he is essentially setting us all up to be either afraid of speaking the truth or possibly even have a precedent to actually come after us in the courts for speaking the truth.
So Alex Jones is not the tip of the spear.
He's not the most centered man alive.
He's one of the greatest threats to free speech that we have.
So suffice it to say that Dustin is another antisemite who actually believes the Jewish people aren't human, and he frequently advocates for what he calls the Obadiah eighteen solution, which is a reference to Bible verse.
That reads, quote, and the house of Jacob shall be a fire and the house of Joseph a flame and the house of Esau for stubble, for they shall kindle in them and devour them, and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau, for the Lord hath spoken it.
You know, there's, there's, what I feel this from a lot of people.
This, like, there's a social pressure.
And I think a lot of times what people are reacting to in this kind of, like, oh, the tone police kind of stuff is the anxiety you have towards what if I say something and I discover after the fact that this person is very clearly personally offended by it and I didn't mean it in a personally offensive way.
Right?
And so I understand why people feel that way.
I don't often feel that way because my first thought when that guy started talking was if this guy was talking to to me, I would say, you sound like a psycho.
You have to deal with whatever that is before we can continue this conversation.
And then people would be anxious because they'd be like, what if he says, oh, this is how I was born to talk like that?
Then I would say, then you need to change it or not be on this mic.
You know, there's, I think a lot of people took that, you know, right speech leads to right action to mean like the meaning of your speech leads to the meaning of your action, right?
You know, others have pointed this out, but when what you're doing is, you know, it's taking it to the level of legal proofs to show this in a court setting.
Now, I don't know if they're ever going to get him with the courts.
They're probably going to cover this up at some point, but by then it's too late.
We'll have gotten the information out and Alex Jones is he's falling.
He's almost done.
He's he's he's no longer trusted.
His credibility is shot since October 7.
He couldn't figure out bombing babies was bad or that it was even happening for a long, long time.
I I definitely, you know, I am curious as to how this is going to go in the courts and what his response is going to be.
But I'm going to share my website here if I can pull it back up.
I have too many options to share, so that's kind of confusing.
So I'm not going to make everyone go through all this, but I've been working on it earlier to make it a little bit neater.
I have a documentary where I basically show that he will never, ever expose Jews for anything.
He always, you know, Nazis, chicoms, globalists, whatever, anything but the Jews.
That's why I called him Never Jew Jones.
And in, you know, obviously that's a side topic, but in the case of modern politics, people in my audience know, at least in my opinion, it's them behind everything every single time.
There's a bunch of things that just didn't seem right with the case, and people are noticing, so to speak.
And then, of course, the other things that he's done as well down here with his associations, his connections to the CIA, his refusal to call out atrocities., like, you know, war crimes and ethnic cleansing of Gaza and such.
Basically, this post has everything you need if you want to talk about Alex Jones.
I don't want to go through the whole thing because it's quite long.
I've been dealing with him for many years.
He hates me.
I'm Voldemort at Infowars, the guy who must not be named.
He's threatened to kill me on air before.
All of it's on video.
Alex Jones doesn't like me very much.
But that's because I've been exposing him for about eight years now.
And before that, I watched him grow up.
I mean, I know this guy as well as he knows himself.
I watched him since he was a young person and I was a child., you know, 16 years basically watching InfoWars, growing up on InfoWars, seeing how Alex Jones operates and seeing when he let us down.
We both entered into examining Alex Jones with a similar question, namely, there's something wrong here, but what is it?
What's going on?
If you watch Alex's show with anything more than a passive eye, you can't help but notice that his actions don't match the character he's presenting himself as.
And even more troublingly, his positions on stuff seems to shift more than it should.
He presents his beliefs as black and white, where he's working with God to fight the devil, but then on a day to day basis, he often engages with news like someone who believes in gray areas and lesser of two evils ideas.
It doesn't make sense as a show, which is fine if people are just listening to it for an emotional fix.
Alex performs the outbursts that are cathartic for the audience, and he insists that his outbursts are rooted in academic research and divinely granted wisdom, so it's unquestionably correct, based on earthly and heavenly standards.
If that's all you want, then his contradictions don't really matter, and you might not even see them.
But if you pay closer attention, his show will bother you.
It'll start to come to your attention that things that you were being sold last year aren't so important anymore.
You'll begin to see that this disaster that the globalists are about to trigger is the same thing Alex was telling you they were going to trigger two years ago, which never happened.
To steal Dustin's favorite word, you'll start noticing things.
And that's a split in the road for that person.
That's what you come upon.
There's just you have to make a choice.
Because they're able to put their finger on this nebulous thing that makes Alex's show confusing, this person who confronts that fork in the road.
They can't enjoy it in the same passive way that the bulk of the audience probably does.
The itch of what's going on here, what the fuck is wrong, that doesn't go away.
So if they really are asking questions, then this fork in the road appears and they have to choose a path.
As I see it, there are three paths that split from this road.
The first is the path of just accepting what the mainstream media would tell you about Alex.
You can find plenty of clips on him about him on sites like Media Matters or the SPLC that are fairly accurate most of the time, but they lose a lot of context and they present him a bit too dimensionally and a little cartoony.
It's a generally correct picture of Alex that gets painted like he's an angry idiot, he's dangerous, etc, but it also fails to paint the whole picture.
This is what I would describe as the pacifying off ramp for conspiracy theories.
You can go that path, it's possible.
The second path is what I've attempted to do with this show.
I took Alex at his word and then assessed the claims he was making.
If he was correct, I would be an info warrior.
If he was wrong, I would seek to understand what he was wrong about and the context that the errors were made in.
Why do you reach the conclusion that you reach based on this misuse of information or this fake thing?
When primary source documents were provided, I would go find them, read them, and then read up on what was going on around the time of that document's creation.
What was this document made in response to?
Who was creating this document?
And most importantly, is this a fake document?
I would call this path a risky, open hearted path.
It's you might end up learning that Alex Jones is right about stuff.
And you have to make peace with that if you're going to walk down this road.
The third path is the one that Dustin is on.
He believed Alex and the conspiracies that Alex was selling him very deeply for that sixteen years that he was listening to Alex's show.
But when the fork in the road came, the only way he could engage with Alex was through the internal language of conspiracy.
He was able to correctly assess that Alex was lying, but it was too threatening to the worldview that he'd created to ask if Alex had been lying about the fundamental conspiracy shit that Dustin had used to understand the world over that time.
The conspiracy worldview must remain intact, but the goal is to now find a way to incorporate an evil version of Alex into that world.
He's a limited hangout.
He works for the Jews.
It's a perfectly simple solution to a problem that, if not resolved simply, could lead to an identity crisis.
This third path is the radicalization path, and it's why a lot of folks who are more extreme than Alex, they still consider his existence a net positive.
Over time, overt neo Nazis and the like, they knew that a lot of their ranks came from people who were quote woken up by Alex, and eventually they grew past him.
They recognized Alex as a first step in the initiation process that some people might never get past, but it also provided a much larger potential recruitment pool than they would have had access to otherwise.
A regular everyday person is not going to gravitate towards media that just screams that Jews are inhuman monsters, but they might dip their toe into info wars.
If they get into info wars, it becomes possible for the neo Nazis to then start asking them if they notice anything about Alex and plant seeds that draw them closer to the Jews are inhuman monsters type of shows.
Frankly, Dustin's existence is kind of evidence of this.
Without Alex's influence, it's likely that he wouldn't have been in a place where his disillusion with Alex as a white supremacist figure would have led him to create the kind of media that he does.
His explicit bigotry grew out of becoming tired with Alex's cagey bigotry.
So what's the point I'm driving at here?
Essentially, the thing that I want to stressess is that the danger of what Alex does exists on the surface level.
And I believe we, you know, covered that in terms of the LA protests recently.
Sure.
But it also has a tendency towards canning people down these sorts of paths and creating people like this.
Alex is full of shit and he engages with information in a way that's full of shit.
His lies, you know, his misinterpretations of data points, he does it in a way to serve further any storyline he's using to keep the audience interested and buying pills.
real, which is an underlying feeling that people have that something about society isn't right.
Load bearing pieces of how our country operates are designed in systemic ways to hurt certain people and benefit others.
Most people feel this way on some level or another.
Some are able to suppress it and say yeah, it's the cost of living in the modern world, but others try to seek out explanations for why things are the way they are.
Some of that exploration, it leads people to advocacy and political organizing, but a lot of it also goes to more entertainment based shit.
For decades, Alex was a leading figure of the media space that catered to the people who wanted to find an answer for why the world wasn't how they felt it should be, and he provided easy answers.
It's a perfect and undefinable explanation for why things feel wrong, and it's one you can superimpose onto pretty much any story you want.
If there's a new villain that pops up in the world, it's easy to say they're a globalist.
If someone who's previously a hero betrays the Patriots, then it's easy to just say that they were a secret globalist all along, or that the globalists got to them.
Alex creates this ecosystem because it's where he can keep people as customers, so long as they don't get too inquisitive.
If they start noticing how his narratives are inconsistent and his actions over time are pretty suspicious, it has a tendency to lead them right to that fork in the road, and one of the paths is way more likely to be chosen than the others.
That third path, the radicalization path, is far more likely to be taken because it's easy.
Taking the first path requires that you blindly accept the information being given to you by sources that you previously considered evil, like media matters.
You're not going to just immediately adopt, oh, they're actually great.
Love them now.
Taking the second path requires you to assess information from a dispassionate position.
position and risk reaching conclusions that the worldview that you adopted is a fraud.
Essentially, each of these options demand that you disrupt the way that you've engaged with the world up to that point, whereas the third option just requires you shift around a couple of your opinions while allowing you to maintain the same lazy, easy worldview that drew you into info wars in the first place.
So I was watching another Victor Hugo interview with Dustin Nemos, and I found one moment that I thought really illustrated this point incredibly well.
I mean, I've talked about all these different persecutions, and I mentioned earlier that they are exempt from military service.
Let me share that one with you.
Because they now want us to go die for their wars again.
I will not die for the Jews.
I will not fight for the Jews.
But they are actually exempt from military service.
Here's the document.
It's found at NARA National Archives and Records Administration.
I've got a link there and everything, but just pulling that up so you guys can see it here, make it a little bit bigger.
It's got the funny picture on it and everything.
But this is a real Central Committee Anti-Defamation League record where they're basically saying that Jews will be exempt from the wars.
It was unclassified.
We can all see it now for ourselves.
And it says, you know, stupid Goyem nations, that's what they call us.
It says they support the draft, but they don't want it for them.
So this is, you know, it says, quote, we can repeat our triumphs of 1918 if we maintain our united front and the dumb Goyem will fight while we profit.
So Dustin says there's a funny picture there, and that of course is a racist cartoon of a Jewish man that you see on all the cool racist sites like Twitter.
And formerly it was mostly in places like message boards and stormfront, but now Twitter, because the world's cool.
So this cartoon is next to a screenshot of a document, which is said to be from the National Archives and Records Administration.org which takes you to the document.
This is a website run by a group called the Institute for Research Middle East Policy, which houses a large collection of documents that have been released due to declassification or FOIA requests about groups like the ADL.
The link that Dustin's meme goes to is a one hundred twenty six page PDF of documents from the FBI.
Most of this PDF is a list of contacts inside the ADL that were provided by the group secretary to the FBI with the assurance that these contacts would cooperate with the FBI in investigations that they might be doing.
from september nineteen forty, so the mind reels about what the context of their cooperation might have been during World War two.
After a long list of contact is some stray pages, one of which serves as the basis for the meme that Dustin is discussing.
This is headlined special notice to all Jews exclamation point.
It starts the Central Conference of American Rabbis at the forty seventh annual conference held in New York on june twenty sixth, nineteen thirty seven declared for exemption of Jews from military service in accordance with the highest interpretation of Judaism.
The document goes on, why should we the only truly international?
people be concerned with the mutable interests of stupid Goyam nations.
We must do everything in our power to help the great president who has helped us so greatly in establishing control.
Support the draft law when it is presented to the American people.
Support England and France, for they are fighting Judah's greatest enemy, the Goyam German state.
This was the Conference of American Rabbis, but they were, you know, if they were going to be able to pull this off, they need, you know, a little bit extra push, which is convenient, because in the document it says, quote, powerful Jews will be in all draft boards, and Jewish physicians will protect you from military service.
Arrangements are already made to exempt you in case religious exemptions cannot be prepared in time.
You are warned to renounce, abjure, repudiate and deny any of this information if questioned by Gentiles, even under oath, as outlined in the Talmud and justified for the preservation of our race.
But the most, the most, if anything like this were real, the most evidence you could have would be something so oblique as to be like, Hey, do you have the name of the guy that got on to that voting board?
Like, that would be it.
Like, that would be the only evidence that there is any kind of thing.
Because you do this shit face to face, you don't write it down.
So further supporting evidence that this is a fake document is that the 47th Conference of American Rabbis was held in 1936, not 1937, and it took place in Cape May, New Jersey, not in New York.
These are basic details that an authentic document, they would not get that wrong.
And these are often the fingerprints of propaganda around this time.
It's designed to demonize Jewish people.
This is an obviously fake document.
And as it turns out, the reason it was in the FBI files that was released is because someone in Clevelveland had found this flyer at their workplace and reported it to the FBI in nineteen forty three.
You might notice that that date also in the middle of World War II, when Nazi propaganda was pretty high.
By taking the metaphorical third path, a person like Dustin is able to incorporate the new information that Alex is a lying piece of shit, but still maintain the freedom to play the same games with information that he enjoyed doing while he was an info wars fan.
All of the taking shortcuts and ignoring the fact that your sources are transparently fake because they make the point you want.
to arrive at, you can still do all that stuff.
Because fundamentally, all you've done is replaced the target of your escapist explanations.
Alex would tell you that it's all the globalists, but now you just get to say it's all the Jews.
It is like, it's not really a change, but it is an esthetic change and a little bit of a shift that allows you to maintain exactly what you you were doing before.
Going down this third path is a way to challenge your conclusion.
I.e.
Alex Jones is a good guy truth teller, while never needing to challenge the way you arrived at your conclusions to begin with.
I.e.
Alex Jones coached me to mishandle information in strategic ways that benefited him, and now I'm starting to see through.
People like this aren't threatening to Alex.
They're just kind of annoying.
They make him feel like people think he's poser, and they have a tendency to chip away a little bit at Alex's audience, but these folks don't fund fundamentally represent any risk to the conspiratorial worldview that Alex exploits and profits from.
I think the reason that I was able to approach the fork in the road differently and go down this second path, it's not because I have some intellectual or moral character that's better than anyone or even Dustin, it's because I didn't inherently believe Alex's shit to begin with, so whatever conclusion I arrived at, it wasn't personally threatening.
I liked conspiracy theories, and I fucked around with acting like they could be real when I was out drinking with friends, but I didn't really believe that nine hundred eleven was an inside job.
For someone in the position of an info wars fan, that calculus is totally different.
And in order to reach the very simple conclusion that Alex Jones is just a dumb liar, you have to give up a much larger framework of things that you believe and have believed for a long time.
It's so much easier to just create a new conspiracy on top of the old one, and it pretty much always goes in the direction of discovering that Alex works for the Jews.
So for Dustin, I fucking hate him, and I think he represents a disgusting ideology.
So fuck him.
It probably felt like I was going to get to the end of this and express some kind of empathy for this guy and encourage understanding, and maybe in another time I might have done that, but I'm not really interested in that anymore.
I understand why he's gone down the roads he's gone down, and I do think the deck was stacked against him, but that doesn't excuse becoming a Nazi.
Understanding how Alex's media strategy leads people to this kind of place is important, and placing a amount of blame on Alex is correct.
Well, I mean, the thing about that, though, is that you then having noticed that you haven't dealt with what that would mean to then apply to you.
You've noticed that you didn't enter with the same framework, which is why you are not ending in the same place because he's unable to let go of his framework.
You haven't analyzed whether or not you've been able to let go of your own framework.
I have let go of a lot of pieces of things that were fairly important to me before, you know, examining a lot of these prior assumptions that I had about the world.
But I think a lot of it came from a place of not really caring that much.
As opposed to a place where I'm like, I actually thought that everything in society is built for everyone's best interests.
Right, right, right.
I didn't have a position that.
that everything Alex is saying is not true, let's say.
Right, right.
I just didn't really care that much.
And so the examination, the first step of it is really the risky part.
Sure.
Because I could take that step and find, oh shit, Alex is right.
Or I could take that step and find a lot of this stuff that I previously took for granted or just didn't really care about that requires an update of how I see things.
Yeah.
Whereas there is no risk in just being like, oh, it's the Jews.
You know, it reminds me, I think this is a, I brought it up too many times, but it's becoming more relevant because it's so wrong about everything, but that book about brainwashing, right?
Like in another way of looking at it at it, you could describe any act of learning information that is not the same information that you currently hold, but would occupy the same space in your brain as being a painful process of removing the old information and then putting the new information in its place, right?
So that could be what we describe as brainwashing or just regular learning.
You know, it is a process of risk, as you put it, to go, well, if this is wrong, I have to remove it entirely.
I can no longer have this piece of information and it must be replaced by information that could be a new one.
That could then alter everything else that I know.
doesn't mean that you've done that process for everything.
There are blind spots and shit that you don't even know you need to reexamine.
Sure.
That you don't you don't become aware of it until it gets brought up.
Sure.
Or something, you know, like it's a constant process of reexamining and taking the risk of opening up that part of your brain to, like, hey, I might learn something new that's a little bit threatening to, you know, where I was comfortable.
And that's why I think the handling of that, uh, Jewish people don't have to join the army thing is so illustrative of what the digging that's not being done is.
Dustin is still doing the exact same thing using this source to prop up the storyline that he wants to tell, which is Jews are behind everything that's evil and wrong.
So the digging would probably be indicated by him not using a shortcut like this, not cheating, not using a source in an info warsy fashion.
No, I mean, but I mean, it is interesting to go back and like to listen to something that he said in the context that he said it, which is like, oh, he hates me, he's threatened by me.
And then like, because I stop and think about it, and of course he's not.
But also he's not threatened by the SPLC or anything.
And then it's exactly like power.
The people that have it, you don't need to mention them.
The reason the people he's threatened by, he will never speak our name.
I'm just thinking about as far as the root analogy is concerned, this we are what it looks like to try and get to the root and not just deal with shit.
Like when you describe, oh, this is how Alex uses.

He he's made up complete bullshit.
It doesn't mean anything and it fits whatever story they're trying to tell.
That's also what's being told about Alex.
That's also the media talking about Alex.
Bullshit, nonsense, doesn't mean anything and using it to tell the story they want to tell.
Sometimes Alex is remembered that he's apologized.
Sometimes he's not.
You know, like it is a matter of narrative for them, what is being crafted.
And again, it's in a similar way.
If they actually go down and try and get to the root of what they're doing, they'd have to change.
I agree but disagree with your assessment of the root being the same.
Sure.
Because I think that both roots of like bullshit media like Alex and this guy and mainstream media, both have problems, but they're different problems.
Partially because the truth and the reality of the world is deeply complex and there is no headline.
You're going to be able, yeah, I'm not saying you need to believe the whole thing.
And partially because a lot of those media companies, they have their vested interest in the maintenance of that power and access to power.
So like, yeah, obviously that is probably a much larger piece.
But even if that wasn't the case, you and I couldn't boil down something to a headline that is going to, is going to explain why the world is complicated.
I just I just got so many gymnasts in my head and now I'm like, you don't need to be Miles to get and it's just not going to it's not going to go for you.
He was hoping to kick the can down the road to make it too expensive for these people to continue suing him.
It's not like Sandy Hook didn't happen and he's part of an elaborate conspiracy in order to make sure that he loses this case in order to make sure that no one ever has to know that Sandy Hook was fake.
Like this is your conspiracy hit a dead end.
There's a very simple explanation for it.
And instead of challenging what led you to the stupid conspiracy to begin with, you've added a new layer on top of it.
And Wynn's doing that, Dustin's doing that, and that's it.
You know, like, either he reaches the point where he's like, wait, genetically we're all Jewish and then it dies or he goes, Jews aren't even real and then dies.
You know, like it's it you'll never reach the end and any kind of meaningful information unless you kind of ask questions a little bit about how you got to the point where you become disillusioned.
And I think, yeah, I think that what I was feeling about watching these things is a reminder and a hearkening back to the disappointment that I had when I first asked some of these questions about like, what the fuck''s going on with this Alex Jones guy?
Sure.
This is kind of the stuff that was available then and was around then.
And I honestly feel like I don't know if it's much better now.
I think it is, a little bit.
There's a more robust conversation in non-insane circles, and I think that's good.
That's positive.
But I also think that there's a danger.
And that is that I don't think that these people like Augustin, like Victor Hugo or whatever.
I don't think these people think Alex is necessary anymore.
That time when people would need to dip their toe into Alex in order to get them acclimated to the point where they would accept deeply anti Semitic shows and like explanations of the world.
