Critical support to Comrade Kim
  • This is the true answer.

    This tweet is stickied at the top of their account. It shows the US going to war with Canada with the MAGA communist party (ACP) logo. The US going to war with Canada to "liberate" and unify with Canada is one of Jackson Hinkle's weird theories.

    This tweet shows a political compass meme they created where they put Infrahaz and Jackson Hinkle logos in the Auth Left Quadrant. The Infrahaz logo is the globe with the rainbox heat coloring and the Hinkle logo shows a unified US and Canada without Mexico. The meme labels the lower left quadrant as liberalism and puts "Queer For Palestine" and the LGBT flag within the quadrant.

  • A court-supervised auction concluded on Wednesday. The Connecticut families said they agreed to forgo some payment from the defamation judgments to boost the Onion's bid and prevent other right-wing content creators from continuing to broadcast conspiracy theories on Infowars.

    "The world needs to see that having a platform does not mean you are above accountability," said Robbie Parker, whose daughter Emilie was killed in the Sandy Hook shooting. "The dissolution of Alex Jones' assets and the death of Infowars is the justice we have long awaited and fought for."

    The second-highest bid was submitted by First United American Companies, which is associated with Jones, according to court documents.

    "They're shutting us down," Jones said on social media site X. "I'm going to be here until they come in here and turn the lights off."

    First United American Companies, which bid $3.5 million in cash for Infowars, objected to the way the auction was handled, saying it wasn't given an opportunity to beat the Onion's winning bid.

    https://www.reuters.com/world/us/parody-website-onion-buys-alex-jones-infowars-out-bankruptcy-court-documents-2024-11-14/

    The Sandy Hook families wanted The Onion to have the website so that right wing news companies could not buy it. Maybe it's more important to the Sandy Hook families that there are less victims of right wing extremists than the money that they spent. It's not likely that The Onion is going to retain Infowars customers as The Onion customers.

    Alex Jones is still required to pay the Sandy Hook families over $1 billion dollars. Alex Jones tried to buy Infowars for $3.5 million, he was the second highest bidder. So the price payed for Infowars is some amount over $3.5 million. Alex Jones still owes the rest of the money.

    You are misunderstanding. You are inserting yourself into the scenario and trying to make decisions as if you are the victim. The Sandy Hook families probably already liked The Onion. If they wanted to buy Infowars themselves and gift it to a joke company, then good for them. The Sandy Hook families believe that it is justice for the website to be made into a joke.

    Alex Jones has been posting on twitter all day that the Infowars auction was fraudulent and that he's a victim for not being able to buy the website.

    What would be a worse scenario: "Sandy Hook families buy Infowars and gift it to The Onion as a joke" or "Alex Jones buys Infowars from the Sandy Hook families and continues to harass the families of school shooting victims"?

    The Onion's goal with the acquisition is to end Infowars' relentless barrage of disinformation for the sake of selling supplements and replace it with The Onion's relentless barrage of humor for good. "The Onion is proud to acquire Infowars, and we look forward to continuing its storied tradition of scaring the site's users with lies until they fork over their cold, hard cash," said The Onion's CEO Ben Collins.

All these are posing a grave danger to the DPRK's sovereignty and security environment and sparking off the surging anger and retaliatory will of its army and people. > >The present grave reality, seriously reminding of the instructive law of history that the destructed balance of forces between friend and foe means a war, more clearly emphasizes the necessity of the overwhelming force capable of containing the enemy and controlling the situation at all times and the validity of its steady improvement. It also calls for continuously developing and updating the strategic weapons as deterrent capable of actively coping with any military threat and foiling the enemy's provocative attempt and will for war in advance. > >At a time when the strategic option for reliably defending the national security and regional peace from the adventurous military moves of the U.S. and its vassal forces for aggression and the urgency of its powerful implementation are being further highlighted, a new entity has emerged again to demonstrate the absolute might of the DPRK nuclear combat forces rapidly developing day by day. > >Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, issued an order to the Missile Administration to conduct a test-fire of the latest ICBM Hwasongpho-19 and guided on the spot the crucial test, which would set an epochal milestone in perpetuating the absolute superiority of the strategic armed forces of the DPRK, in the morning of October 31. > >The absolute weaponry strongest in the world, a result of the DPRK's might and spirit that have been steadily augmented for the great dignity and honor of the country and people, for the duty of defending peace and the right to existence that should never be conceded, and for a new world of justice where war, hegemony and injustice are not allowed, advanced into its launching position, giving birth to the new strength the world has not yet experienced. > >The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, with his noblest and heavy mission to firmly defend the sovereignty of the DPRK and its absolute security and rights to development, personally went to the launching site to learn about the preparations and plan for the test-fire and took the central command post. > >The venue waiting a historic moment when the DPRK's newly-updated ultra-powerful offensive means, an ICBM of ultimate version, would show its appearance, was seething with the will of all defence scientists and strategic missile soldiers to strike terror into the most ferocious rivals keen on nuclear confrontation with the DPRK by demonstrating its war deterrent which has reached the highest level in the world. > >The moment has come to display the tremendous power of the world's strongest strategic missile. > >When Kim Jong Un approved the test-fire, General Jang Chang Ha, director general of the Missile Administration, gave an order to the honored Second Red Flag Company. > >The moment, the entity of absolute power loaded with the DPRK people's soaring enmity and strong will to punish all evils and injustice on earth was launched toward the sky. > >The missile traveled up to a maximum altitude of 7,687.5 km and flew a distance of 1,001.2 km for 5,156 s before landing on the preset area in the open waters off the East Sea of Korea. > >The test-fire had no negative effect on the security of neighboring countries. > >The test of the latest strategic weapon system updated the recent records of the strategic missile capability of the DPRK and demonstrated the modernity and creditability of its world's most powerful strategic deterrent. > >On the launching spot, Kim Jong Un expressed great satisfaction at the fact that the successful test-fire of the new-type ICBM proved before the world that the hegemonic position we have secured in the development and manufacture of nuclear delivery means of the same kind is absolutely irreversible. > >The perfected weapon system of ICBM Hwasongpho-19, to be used by the strategic forces of the DPRK along with Hwasongpho-18, pursuant to the long-term plan for building the state nuclear forces set forth by the Party Congress, will perform the mission and duty as the primary core means in defending the DPRK, thoroughly containing the enemies' acts of aggression and reliably protecting the national security. > >Kim Jong Un said that the test-fire is an appropriate military action that fully meets the purpose of informing the rivals, who have intentionally escalated the regional situation and posed a threat to the security of our Republic recently, of our counteraction will, and it also constitutes an indispensable process in the course of constantly developing our state's strategic attack forces. > >He went on to say: > >As recently witnessed by us, the rivals' dangerous tightening of their nuclear alliance and various adventuristic military maneuvers go to further highlight the importance of strengthening our nuclear forces. We should never allow any threat to approach the security sphere under our state's influence. > >The security situation of our state and ever-aggravating prospective threats and challenges require us to continue to bolster up our modern strategic attack forces and more perfectly round off our nuclear forces' response posture. > >And he clearly reaffirmed that the DPRK would never change its line of bolstering up its nuclear forces. > >On behalf of the Party and the government and all the Korean people, he gave the highest thanks to the defence scientists and the workers in the field of munitions industry for their distinguished contribution to demonstrating the DPRK's matchless strategic nuclear attack capability before the whole world. > >He once again stressed that only peace, to be defended by the powerful force capable of controlling and deterring the enemy, is reliable and safe and durable and herein lies a sure guarantee for the security and future of the state and people of the DPRK. And he clarified the important tasks to be constantly carried out by the field of national defence science in implementing the line of bolstering up the state nuclear forces. > >Expressing expectation and belief that the national defence science and technology group, always faithful and absolute to implementing the requirements of the revolution, would achieve the better defence development successes and thus always remain faithful to its sacred responsibility and duty, he had a photo session with the masters of this great event at the historic site where the absolute prestige of the state was lifted once again. > >All the defence scientists and strategic missile soldiers vowed to devote themselves with redoubled courage to the sacred struggle for further bolstering up the arsenal of the Juche revolution and strengthening the state's nuclear response posture. -0- >www.kcna.kp (2024.11.01.)
