    Wait, I’m out of the loop. A collection of people won a 1.5 billion dollar lawsuit over something posted on the internet the they did not like? I barely know who Alex Jones is (good thing apparently) but still.

      That “thing they didn’t like” was accusations that their kid didn’t die/never existed, that the mass shooting their kid died in was a hoax and that they were paid by the State to pretend that their kid died. That “thing they didn’t like” was said by him hundreds of times over the course of years. That “thing they didn’t like” was spread to millions of people and many of those people believed it. This led them to constantly harass the “collection of people” and give death threats to the “collection of people” over the “thing they didn’t like”.

      Yes. You are wildly out of the loop.
