  • I did some surface investigation so I could be wrong but – this seems to come from an annual Battle of Shrewsbury reenactment. I think the photographer captured one of the splinter fights from the big push.

    There’s some older footage here (battle starts around 5:00) from someone who participated, that provides some context of the energy. It’s not combat sports and it doesn’t seem scripted. Mostly just dudes in a field putting on a show for their community. Some of these strikes I wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of, but it all seems playful enough.

    Worth mentioning for a reenactment to be historically accurate - someone’s gotta lose, and they’ll know to play the role appropriately. It is “scripted” in that sense.




  • Tim’s going after Harrison Smith, took over as host of infowar’s show The War Room after 10-year host Owen Shroyer departed late last year. He’s basically become Jones’ #1 ass-kissing acolyte and delivered the final monologue of old infowars.

    Smith also recently invited the onion team to “sit down and have a discussion” with him and Jones, so this is pretty much the response.
