    Alex would not do it. Unless he can still sell you his Big Brain Vitamins and Deep Earth Crystals. With China cutting off exchanges I doubt he would go.

    Hey, if you and your buddies wanna go, Alex, knock yourselves out. Seriously: get the fuck out of here, because the vast majority of us hate you for being one of the worst calibers of human.

          Funny thing is, often those kind of “based” countries also have their own version of DEI. Hungary still offers companies a tax writeoff if they’re employing disabled people, and disabled people also entitled to extra paid leaves and tax writeoff. The catch? The workplaces often have to make their jobs “disabled friendly”, which often can be just “not having to count”, due to ableist jokes of the past. Also getting tested for disability is really hard and humiliating experience, amputees are being strip searched every few years for hidden limbs (and originally everyone got that treatment to “repeal those who don’t need it”), autistic adults are getting the same questionnaires as children (because "real autistic people are low-functioning), etc. But at least we no longer have “mafia-types” (Roma) buying Mercedeses and BMWs from welfare money that was supposed to go to the “real disabled”, as far-right “news” portals like kuruc info, barikád, and bombagyár reported back in the days.

      Just a moment now - before he’s allowed to go let’s make sure we get all his money into the hands of gun violence survivors.

    So uh, I appreciate everyone’s sentiment, but this would actually make our problems worse. Living in Russia does not prevent you from running a propaganda network, though sanctions might possibly interfere with supplements sales.

    What living in Russia definitely does do, though, is prevent our legal system from reaching you with any form of consequences. Many of our fiercest propaganda foes do live safely in Russia where we just cannot reach them very easily, and they are still a major problem. A lot of the fake local “news” websites, for instance, are run by one single American expat, living in Russia. He just remakes them when they get taken down, he’s made hundreds, all spreading a mix of copied real news and standard Russian propaganda.

    Things aren’t always as simple as they seem. Most things, actually.

      Oh no! Ukrainian partisans infiltrated their compound and gunned them all down after they became valid targets as official propaganda apparatchik!

      Shame.

      If Alex Jones actually goes to Russia to live, I have $100 saying that within 6 months he’ll be “asked” to do war correspondent shit and will wind up like that katsap whose face was all mangled and had to stop a civvie car to get a ride to the hospital.

    ”[Putin’s] new decree blows the lid off the establishment’s agenda, letting freedom-loving folks bypass the usual bureaucratic nonsense like language tests or history exams," Jones posted on X. "If you’re ready to reject the insane policies of your home countries that push these destructive, anti-human, neoliberal agendas, Russia is rolling out the red carpet!”
