Following his trial for defamation of the families of the children and school staff killed in the Sandy Hook massacre, conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is using Valve Corp.’s Steam, the world’s largest digital distribution platform for PC games, to sell an Infowars-themed video game. Jones claims to h...
An Article by Media Matters: Conspiracy monger Alex Jones (of Infowars) has been the subject of a recently released game that promotes him and his vile conspiracies, but also benefits him financially, although he claims to be bankrupt and refuses to pay damages to the people he harmed.
Fucking $22+, for a 1980's era game featuring this fucking turd? Are you kidding me!?! Even worse most of the comments are positive, man the gaming community is full of dumb fuckers.
It is probably more that you aren't going to buy the game unless you are a fan of Alex Jones, and those people are going to be happy to pay for his shit.
It won't, because the people who review bomb games are overwhelmingly right-wing reactionaries throwing a tantrum because there's someone in their video game they wouldn't fuck.
Besides, "making his game have a mostly negative review score" is not even close to justice for someone who is dodging debts he legally owes after he profited off attacking parents whose children died screaming in pain and terror after being torn apart at school with an AR-15.
Meh. It looks "ok" I guess. I don't see the appeal if you're not into Alex Jones tbh, you can get far better for less money on steam (even ignoring any sales).
I admit I'm kinda surprised to see that it's apparently not a complete ripoff
Ill take this opportunity to plug a tiny podcast that I stumbled onto called "Some Dare Call it Conspiracy". It's hosted by two English guys that were hard-core conspiracy theorists for 15 years.
They now discuss, debunk and interview people around the conspiracy life. It's really fascinating to learn about Pizzagate, Chemtrails, Hunter Biden's Laptop and Jeffery Epstein from very knowledgeable people but in an environment of debunking.
Their latest episode is an interview with Rob Jacobson, a former staffer for Alex Jones that worked for him for 12 years. Jacobson ended up testifying against Jones in the Sandy Hook trial. The episode is on their Patreon at the moment but will roll out to the general public in a few days. Fascinating stuff and Jones is every bit as shady as one expects.
They say it's a riff on something a UK conspiracy theorist David Icke said about some theory or other, about how the evidence was so obvious that 'no one dare call it conspiracy.'
