there is a lot of stuff funnier than things that did not happen.

onion may be making a merchandise, but they did not take over anything, so far... they have a plan to rent the domain for 6 months, it now depends on a texas judge... so far the infowars is still full of alex jones' shit, as everyone can verify by typing that address into browser.

it is fascinating how people are willing to shout nonsense that is not true, as long as they like the nonsense... cool (mis)info war 😂
