    On paper, I feel like onion acquiring infowars could have been kind of uninteresting, but the way it’s unfolding has me dying laughing. Tim Heidecker being involved, Alex still having access to the studio, shirtless, ranting and raving about how the left are body snatchers (as if he didn’t completely bring this on himself).

    It’s borderline adult swim absurdity. I love it

    It is funny, but I’m going to wait on buying any InfoWars merch until the change in ownership has really sunk into the collective consciousness. InfoWars is just too culturally toxic atm, and I don’t want to carry anything around related to Alex Jones.

      Pride colors with an onion in the middle.

      I’d say you’re safe, but… I had a woman yell at me for “pushing my agenda in her face in front of her child” while quietly reading on my phone eating at Panda Express with one of these color run t-shirts on.

        Oh yeah? Well, that woman hasn’t gone running since 1977! And she uses [Brand] so her wash colors don’t run! How dare you put those sick ideas in her child’s mind! And in a Panda Express, no less. Pandas don’t run either! Is nowhere safe??

          I would never disrespect the panda. I was there to worship at the altar of orange chicken. It is a holy place for me.

      Yeah but limited edition… If they do succeed, and it does sink into the collective consciousness, then these items might end up being desirable. Could be cool to sport the og Onion Wars shirt years from now

      Thanks for the links. I like the shirt, but I’d be kind of worried that people would see info wars and miss the onion and rainbow and get the wrong idea about me.

      Still, probably worth it haha

    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.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/20/business/infowars-alex-jones-the-onion.html

    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 😂

    It’s going to be hard to satirize Infowars. This is a real shirt Alex Jones is selling now:

      So they’re wearing shirts with which they self identify as low iq now? Are they getting self aware? Before ai? That’s a surprise…

      Or is it a black shirt with low iq, basically fully bringing out in the open the thinly veiled dog whistle of trump using the term whenever he’s talking about women of color?

      Yeah more that, i think

        It’s just because Trump called Jones “Low IQ”

        It’s a reference to trump calling Alex jones, Candace owens and some others “low IQ” in a recent social media rant. Thing is, no one is gonna know this and they’re just gonna wear a shirt that accidentally admits a harsh truth lol

        Literally anything to “trigger the libs!” That’s the entire Republican party now. Oh, sure. There are a bunch of people at the top scamming and raking in piles of cash while believing none of it… But the rest are idiots and trolls. And they currently control our country…
