Justice temporarily served: Alex Jones loses in court yet again, but do not be misled into thinking that he and his kind are going away or shall ever face true consequences

A Houston judge has ruled that all of Infowars’ assets are to be auctioned off, with proceeds going to the defamed Sandy Hook families {CBS News 25 September}

For likely the final time, justice appears to have prevailed in Texas—albeit only very partially, as Alex Jones remains free and shall never face true accountability, given that this Putin-backed cabal of theocrats and fascists (of which Jones is part and parcel) are about to be granted full control of the US by popular consent. It pains me, and enrages me, to have to acknowledge that the Sandy Hook families shall never receive the compensation they deserve; they shall continue to face harassment and demonisation by far right zealots (and possibly by federal agencies once they have been purged and replaced with Trump loyalists), as they have for over a decade now, and will continue to be shunned by the American people. Alex Jones is going to remain in business for a long time to come, profiting while millions in this shameful realm of #Murica, and countless souls around the globe, suffer the consequences of the division, evil, and malice he has been so instrumental in sowing.
