M.I.A. has implied vaccines are fake in a new tweet.
The UK artist was responding to news of the verdict in the Alex Jones trial, with the InfoWars broadcaster ordered to pay more than $1 billion in compensation to the families of the Sandy Hook shooting.
Having repeatedly claimed the shooting was a hoax, or a false flag event, Alex Jones is now faced with a crippling legal bill after being taken to court by the families of the children who were killed in the massacre.
Reacting to the news, M.I.A. created a false equivalence between Alex Jones’ actions and the pandemic, while also seeming to imply that vaccines are… fake news.
M.I.A. writes: “If Alex Jones pays for lying shouldn’t every celebrity pushing vaccines pay too?”
Doubling down on this, she added: “Alex Jones lying and Pfizer lying both trending. One with penalty other without. If you have no critical thinking faculty, this is about as crazy as we should get before a nuclear war wipe out the human race.”

Seeming to disapprove of the severity of the punishment, M.I.A. later wrote: “It’s 2022, so far no one has ever paid a billion dollars for lying or being in denial on this planet.”
Finally, she added a reference to the Iraq War dossier compiled by British and American authorities: “WMDs”.
M.I.A. recently claimed to be a born again Christian, after experiencing a vision of Jesus Christ.
M.I.A. is slated to release her new album ‘Mata’ on October 14th.
