An Article by Media Matters: Conspiracy monger Alex Jones (of Infowars) has been the subject of a recently released game that promotes him and his vile conspiracies, but also benefits him financially, although he claims to be bankrupt and refuses to pay damages to the people he harmed.

    Ill take this opportunity to plug a tiny podcast that I stumbled onto called “Some Dare Call it Conspiracy”. It’s hosted by two English guys that were hard-core conspiracy theorists for 15 years.

    They now discuss, debunk and interview people around the conspiracy life. It’s really fascinating to learn about Pizzagate, Chemtrails, Hunter Biden’s Laptop and Jeffery Epstein from very knowledgeable people but in an environment of debunking.

    Their latest episode is an interview with Rob Jacobson, a former staffer for Alex Jones that worked for him for 12 years. Jacobson ended up testifying against Jones in the Sandy Hook trial. The episode is on their Patreon at the moment but will roll out to the general public in a few days. Fascinating stuff and Jones is every bit as shady as one expects.

        They say it’s a riff on something a UK conspiracy theorist David Icke said about some theory or other, about how the evidence was so obvious that ‘no one dare call it conspiracy.’
