Following his trial for defamation of the families of the children and school staff killed in the Sandy Hook massacre, conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is using Valve Corp.’s Steam, the world’s largest digital distribution platform for PC games, to sell an Infowars-themed video game. Jones claims to have earned hundreds of thousands in revenue from the video game, yet he has refused to pay the Sandy Hook families. Alex Jones: NWO Wars also mirrors and cartoonishly repackages the conspiracy theorist’s regularly violent, hateful rhetoric despite the platform’s policies against hate speech.

    Well I’m glad I didn’t buy that, I didn’t know he was actually associated with it financially. Figured it was the right kind of joke, not something tacky, tasteless, and stupid

      When I was looking through the discussion hub for it there are so many banned accounts lol. It’s a ‘joke’ only as much as people say they were joking when they say ‘jews control the media’ or something, it’s full of racist memes.
