GET ME REWRITE: 3,502 days after the mass shooting, Alex Jones admits Sandy Hook was 100% real. Lock him up!

 

After nearly 10 years of spewing conspiracy theories and fomenting harrasment against victim's families.

Not nearly enough.

From "Letters from an American" by Heather Cox Richardson (8/3/2022)
The construction of a world based on lies is a key component of authoritarians’ takeover of democratic societies. George Orwell’s 1984 explored a world in which those in power use language to replace reality, shaping the past and people’s daily experiences to cement their control. They are constantly reconstructing the past to justify their actions in the present. In Orwell’s dystopian fantasy, Winston Smith’s job is to rewrite history for the Ministry of Truth to reflect the changing interests of a mysterious cult leader, Big Brother, who wants power for its own sake and enforces loyalty through The Party’s propaganda and destruction of those who do not conform.
