"And I, myself, have almost had like a form of psychosis back in the past where I basically thought everything was staged, even though I've now learned a lot of times things aren't staged," he said. "So I think as a pundit, someone giving an opinion, that, you know, my opinions have been wrong, but they were never wrong consciously to hurt people."

I wonder if he considers calling himself a pundit part of that "almost psychosis" he was suffering from "back in the past." IMO that's a REAL stretch of the meaning of that word.

He says that the "trauma of the media and the corporations lying so much" caused him to distrust everything,

So, now that he's testifying under oath, he's still not taking any responsibility for what he said. It was the fault of the lying media and corporations and his almost having had something like a form of psychosis. o_O :rolleyes:

I do hope the families suing him are able to prevail.

That's why the Sandy Hook plaintiffs are going after Infowars' internal docs, especially their marketing. There was no psychosis, just a cynical effort to deceive and defame as a business model.

Hell Yeah! It's the same as the Fox News/ NRA business model, just a little more extreme.

Something that people don't understand is that they are generally emotionally children. They failed to develop the self awareness that tells them that what they feel unconsciously is their actual reality. Jones is an excellent example of this. He will not accept that the madness he sees in the world is simply a projection of the madness within himself. It is his inner state that creates his emotional world, the way he sees reality. He never matured emotionally to the realization that he is the source of his psychosis, not the external world. Everything he imagines is being done to him from the outside is a projection of the repressed unconscious awareness that everything he fears happened long ago in his childhood.

If he were to blame himself, and blame is not the right word, because we had to forget to survive, but to admit the external is only an image of the internal, it would mean he would be responsible for his own pain. He would not be able to blame others but accept personal responsibility. That would mean facing the fact that he suffers from pain he has no conscious memory of, and that the way out is to remember and relive it in order to see he was sold lies.

This is why the world is full of blame and runs on a Karmic Wheel.

"Did you but suffer, you would not suffer."

"The truth always involves a paradox."

"We do not know what we feel, don't want to know what we feel, and don't want to know we don't want to know we don't want to know."

"We seek the answers 180 degrees from where they are."

AJ is a psycho, fuck that guy

It's a pity we can't take pleasure in seeing you post something correct for once. You really did yourself a number with that 'christians are the real victims!' thread you made right after Christchurch.

You just sound like a poser here.

I truly hope they succeed to drain him of every dime he has. He's a lying sack of shit, who profited off the murders of children. They don't get much lower than him.

There is a this American Life story on Alex jones and his background. The basics of it is that he was the fat kid in school that everyone gave space to because they thought be was insane. It's incredible to me that the US has so many conspiracy theorists that pay any attention to this jackass.

I wouldn't trust a single thing he said.

Here he is two days ago spewing the same kind of shit.

No one said he isn't a crazy mofo.


He's also scum.
Yeah, from article, it says that in the deposition he doesn't take responsibility for pretty much anything he said.

"By the end of the deposition, Jones presents himself as a martyr who has been victimized, and admits he will not take responsibility for the unfathomable pain he has caused his victims:

Jones: Well, I’m just saying that the trauma of the media and the corporations lying so much, then everything begins ― you don’t trust anything anymore, kind of like a child whose parents lie to them over and over again, well, pretty soon they don’t know what reality is. So long before these lawsuits I said that in the past I thought everything was a conspiracy and I would kind of get into that mass group think of the communities that were out there saying that. And so now I see that it’s more in the middle. All right? So that’s where I stand.​
Bankston: And I’m little concerned about something I heard in your answer, that it seemed to be you suggesting that you weren’t sure if these parents have suffered pain from what you did.​
Jones: Well, I was stating that I was reporting on the general questioning when others were questioning. And, you know, it’s painful that we have to question big public events. I think that’s an essential part of the First Amendment in America. And I do not take responsibility for the entire train of things that lawyers and the media have said I’ve done. So I do not take the responsibility. I do not take your indictment or your presumed conviction of me as the villain or the star of Homeland because that’s not who I am. And so I reject it.​

Well, this might be bad for Ol' Jonesy

BRIDGEPORT - Conspiracy theorist and InfoWars host Alex Jones sent child pornography to the lawyers for the families of the Sandy Hook tragedy, their lawyers said.

The law firm representing the families of the 2012 mass shooting, stated in court documents filed Monday they have contacted the FBI after discovering child porn in electronic files Jones recently turned over to the Sandy Hook families as a result of their lawsuit against him for calling the tragedy a hoax.
