Think about it. If Jones had never had that billion dollar judgement against him, the mainstream media could very easily pretend this assassination attempt was staged and never really happened.
But, Alex Jones's case sets precedent. If you lie about an event being a false flag, the victims of the families who died can sue for damages and destroy you. Trump would absolutely have the money to work with the victim's families from this week's shooting, and using that legal precedent they could absolutely demolish any mainstream media outlet that dared claim it was false.
They can try and downplay it or distract from it, but they can't simply pretend it didn't exist or that it was a publicity stunt.
Very astute fren. The roles have flipped:
The far-right & conspiracy theorists are mostly going with the media/FBI/SS narrative: that there was an assassination attempt.
The left are highly suspicious that it was real because they have been primed with so much "orange man bad" programming. A huge number are putting on tinfoil hats with respect to this event.
By putting on those tinfoil hats, they are entering what should have been the constitutionally-protected Alex Jones zone: expressing skepticism as to the truth of a shooting event.
But wait a moment, now we're in a dysphoria pocket. Shooting events can't be faked, but orange man bad and must have faked his shooting event. Questioning shoot events illegal, but if believe this shooting event then agreeing shooting orange man was wrong?! How shooting Hitler wrong?!
DOES NOT COMPUTE -- FATAL ERROR
