someone ignored the thing about antivax

I've got 3 doses in me rn .. waiting a few months for number 4 as I'd like to have best-coverage around and after Christmas / New Years. The "vaccine" as-presented may reduce the risk of hospitalization but does not prevent you from getting sick.

How is a billion dollars lenient. This would take you what.. 10,000 life times to amass that wealth?
how do you imagine the victims of his abuse, and the abuse of his followers, value their trauma at?

I think the point to make here is that companies that do horrible shit should be getting much higher penalties. No matter how you slice it, Jones willfully defamed and harassed victim's families for a decade and continues to profit off of it and made no effort to prove his own innocence.

I guess what I'm asking to shironinja is - is it all that ridiculous that a guy who ruined and harmed dozens of lives is, himself, ruined in exchange? He made no effort to mediate or sincerely apologize and appears to lack remorse, so even he can't act as though he didn't have an opportunity to right his wrongs. If his life is torn apart by this, so what? It's his fault for using his platform to call families of dead children "actors."

The price tag is absurd and the jurors / judge, media, and all parties involved should be ashamed for wasting everyones time.

This decision will be appealed and reduced.

He literally called the parents of the dead children "demon possessed" on his show during the trial

Ultimately if the only point people have to make is "Why aren't news orgs and big pharma and politicians held more to account?" it's like, yeah, they should be. This doesn't negate that Jones deserves to be destitute for what he did.

GameFAQs is wasting ALL our time! I heard Fandom bought us just to close us all down.

Fining anyone a billion dollars that isn't a multi-national organization grossing billions of dollars is, quite frankly, ridiculous.

Again try to imagine your savings at the end of your lifetime and let that number be x.

Now take $1,000,000,000 / x

How many lifetimes will it take you to amass $1B?

I would never change my username! To me yes it means white. Though I have taken "an above average" amount of martial arts I like to always maintain a beginner's mindset. In martial arts with ranking systems white is tabula rasa -- a blank slate.

I am a white ninja.. meaning one who cannot really do ninja stuff and will never be a master.

He wouldn't be expected to pay that right away.

It'd just take dibs in various payments to people.

Like when or if you owe court fines or taxes.

One time the IRS took $50 a month from me, they did.

Hopefully, but it really depends on what happens in appeals and court rulings and stuff. Alex Jones is going to try to use bankruptcy to escape the jury's decision on damages entirely. We're still waiting on the judge's ruling for punitive damages. He won't be able to bankrupt out of that.

There is also the question of whether he'll even be able to actually go into bankruptcy. He tried that to avoid this entirely by shifting money around to different companies, but the courts picked up on that and threw his bankruptcy filing out.

He should open a GoFundMe to grift the money from QAnon and MAGAt nutjobs.

I mean, a billion out of their pockets is a billion they can't spend on supporting their extremist politicians.

The idea of debt being used to ruin lives similar to the way it was once used to impose literal slavery isn't my idea of how money should be used but I can't bring myself to care one iota what happens to Alex Jones. I laughed and was like "got em!" even. But I guess if I had my druthers I'd rather he have been arrested or something instead. Wielding the civil cudgel of money vs someone who has avoided criminal charges has always felt weird to me, particularly in case where they absolutely deserved worse criminal charges like Alex Jones. But I guess it was tax evasion that they got Al Capone for and not being a murderer and a mob boss.

So yeah overall Alex Jones deserves what he gets.

I mean the problem is Alex Jones really didn't commit any big crimes that would actually get him jailed though. This court case was the only way to get any form of justice out of this terrible situation.

Think about what he did. Not just the Sandy Hook folks, but for all time. Fining him some astronomical amount hell never be forced to pay might make the ones spiking their footballs feel like they got one over, but it isnt good enough.

He needs to face some serious jail time, too. He will never change.

He absolutely does but it's impossible under current laws.
