At an emergency hearing this week, lawyers for the social media company appeared. They haven’t explained why.

    Back about 25 years ago Jones was very anti fascist. Wonder what happened to completely ignore the actual fascists. Probably money from the fascists.

      The irony of saying that you’re against the corrupt establishment and then going out and saying you’re a big supporter of Donald Trump, the most corrupt, most established politician of the 2020’s.
