Funny is ok, by why not flip the meaning of Info Wars 180° from Jones? "Here's the proof. Here's the lies."

2024 has really been an unpredictable one ‘cause I didn’t see this one coming.

pagestealer.bsky.social•131 days ago

I can't tell if this is real news or not because it's the Onion 😆

Keep exact same look and everything, post most ridiculous stories imaginable, even dumber than OG InfoWars. We all win.

"As part of the deal, The Onion will own Infowars' website, product inventory, customers lists, social media accounts, and intellectual property."

crazycanuck2.bsky.social•131 days ago

How is it possible that Alex Jones would have any “Intellectual Property”. Seems like an oxymoron to me. LOL
