Yeah. It's really that simple. Alex Jones took a lifetime of pretty deep and interesting observations about political culture - some of which may have been true given some of his recorded escapades (like weirdness at the Bohemian Grove - I mean the guy got it on tape).

But then it made him money, gave him a bit of a platform and he ran with it. He lost sight of his personal thesis, his real goals for uncovering weird political behaviors and that moment about the shootings was one of several where I think he brainlocked and went in way too deep.

Basically he cycled himself up and he got pinched. I think the payouts he was ordered to give were outlandish - he didn't kill anyone, but as with all things in our society nowadays, vengeance for bent-up anger can now be dished out to anyone yielding even a modicum of attention over a topic. The payouts that were court-ordered were devastating as if Alex Jones killed those kids.

Alex Jones should be made to pay out given his platform, but in clown world that payout was equivalent to making families whole as if he killed their kids.
