    Knowledge fight listeners will know that he’s funneling everything into a bunch of companies owned by his ex employees and his friends while also utilizing sympathetic judges to have his bankruptcy claim not be immediately thrown out.

    This pile of shit will likely never face real consequences and i hope I’m dead wrong

    This is the thing, right? You can’t collect what someone doesn’t have. He should be behind bars shrug-outta-hecks.

      At least mangle him a little so he can no longer communicate his garbage to the world

        But he was such a good source of slop before the major “news” stations and politicians took over the conspiracy leftists are pedo demons manosphere rhelm. Like that kind of stuff was contained and we got “making the frickin frogs gay” banter to laugh at.

          Yeah, I genuinely prefer Jones’ ramblings about gay frogs and aliens with big dicks over whatever racist/classist shit Fox news casters drone on about

            Jones isn’t not racist, though. When he’s talking about aliens and turning the frogs gay, he’s dog whistling antisemitic conspiracy theories. By “global elites,” Jones means Jews. If you venture to the bottom of these conspiracy theories, they are always a roundabout way of blaming the world’s problems on Jews.

            Fox is more explicit with their bigotry, but Jones is saying the same shit with more theatrics.

              He’s absolutely a white nationalist and always has been. Knowledge Fight has covered it extensively

              Are you saying there’s not a cabal of global elites?

                The guys ranting on about it actually want corporations and C-suite MBA’s running the world. They just think all the bad shit that comes with that is because those suits are Jews, and everything will be fine once business is run by “true white sons” or whatever.

            That’s just because you’ve heard the most absurd things he has to say. His rants about drag queens and queer people are genuinely sickening

      I thought maybe we could harvest and sell his organs, but he doesn’t seem healthy enough for them to have any value.

    how come when the court tells rich pigs they owe money its just a suggestion but if one of us gets told the same then the state will start garnishing our wages?

      “Something something, when you owe 20 bucks that’s your problem, when you owe 1.3 Billion that’s everyone else’s.”

      They should have seized his businesses and given them to the families. Up to them if they let him continue his podcast or if they’d rather give it the old copper wiring treatment.

    Why are they trying to sell the company? Just give it to them so they can do what they want with it
