The other asshat...just lost a trial..This station is the first tv
channel I've ever watched that is exclusively conservative
psycho babble..I've surfed am stations while biking and
there are a ton of loon...mike savage..hennesy..limbaugh..

It interesting to listen to them intertwine complete b.s.
with the partial "truths"..It helps me deal with some of
the rad ag sites and their responses to my posts...

whoever it/he was.

When I first watched "InfoWars" on cable access channel after I moved to Austin, I thought it was theater.

Now we're vying to see who cares the least about it.

This is DU. You post; people reply as they see fit. That's how it works here.

After stumpy walked out of its staged meeting with pelosi and schumer
there was a pic from the news showing both walking side by side..this
guy..owen had the pic blown up behind him..and was going nuts trying
to convince viewers that the evil in those two was just so evident...Then
he went on a rant about billions of dollars for foreign aid..and funds for
animal causes and we can't spend a lousy 5 billion to protect americuns..

I guess it was the face of young and dumb...He may be young enough
that a determined progressive can change his perspective..

The site is the point on the Venn Diagram where “Insane 9/11 Conspiracists”, “Antivaxx Nutfucks”, and “Right Wing Asshats” intersect. Nobody with an ounce of sense is paying attention to those raving loonies.

Agree with you that we should be aware of who is spouting the crazy hard-right rubbish but my knowledge of anything Info-wars related pretty much stops there.
