Here’s Why I Decided To Buy ‘InfoWars’ By Bryce P. Tetraeder, Global Tetrahedron CEO ☞ https://theonion.com/heres-why-i-decided-to-buy-infowars/

And let me say, I really do see it as a family. Much like family members, our brands are abstract nodes of wealth, interchangeable assets for their patriarch to absorb and discard according to the opaque whims of the market. And just like family members, our brands regard one another with mutual suspicion and malice.

They should send Alex Jones a $1 "royalty" check every month - just so that he doesn't forget it.

Make it $0.01. No need to waste too much money.

[-] masquenox@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

Nah. They should just make sure the checks bounce.

Nah, send his victims fund a royalty check and him a confirmation of delivery.

That works for me, too.
