Inside Alex Jones' mind

It can be a thin line. Con artists are known to claim they're just giving the marks what they want- but that's really what makes the con work in the first place. If your entire business is based on an array of certifiable lies, I'd call that a con game.

Yeah, good point. Probably coaxes some fence-straddlers over to the delusional camp too, under the false pretense of showing them the 'truth'

If that was the only thing he was doing, you might have a point. But it's not.

People always ask why we bother arguing with people like conspiracy theorists, wanting to know what the harm is in a bunch of idiots believing ********. Well, now we see what the harm is: we have an actual candidate for President of the United States who not only panders to conspiracy theorists, he is one himself. And that's not good for anybody.

And it's the likes of Alex Jones who have created the atmosphere that made this **** show possible. In his monomaniacal quest to enrich himself at the expense of the stupid people, he's caused untold amounts of damage to the very foundations of democracy in the US. **** that guy.

But not as racist as the ones who condemn the Palestinians for the current situation in the Israel/Palestinian state of thing, if you know what I mean, right :D

Personally, I haven't "condemned" any ethnic group for the current situation in the Levant. I'd say those who hold Jewish greed responsible for a systematic, continent-wide extermination program are examples of the very worst racists, and are exactly the type of sniveling buffon's Trump and Alex Jones depend on to fill their ranks.

Very true, but do you think Jones is really conning anyone? Seems he is serving up a steaming pile of feces and inviting all to partake. I think his fans are getting exactly what they want from him

I have a number of friends and acquaintances who cite Alex Jones as a serious and credible source. They don't see him as a conman at all.

The Palsetinians are not a race.

Furthermore, by your own doctrine of guilt by association, anyone excusing attacks by Palestinians is as guilty of those attacks as the actual perpetrators.

Where are you from, SashatheMagnificent? I'd like to know what the penalty for stabbing innocents in the streets is in your country.

Alex Jones is an idiot who spreads lies. Yes and idiot can make millions by being smarter than idiots who must be sub idiots falling for lies dumbed down to Alex Jones idiot level. Alex Jones delusional claims must appear to sub-idiots.

What makes Alex Jones an idiot? Dolt Alex Jones believes Sen. Paul Wellstone was killed by a microwave gun, dead before the plane crashed. Dolt Alex Jones believes the federal government engineered the Oklahoma City bombing.

Dolt Alex Jones' anti-government conspiracy theories influence people to take action. Idiots influence idiots. Like 9/11 truth, big lies fool weak minded nuts.

Alex Jones does not have to be must smarter than the idiots he fools. A legacy of lies.
 
There are billions of people on the planet, so all kinds of weird ideologies spring up. When someone believes something-even if it's weird-they want to have their opinion spoken by others. Jones has simply leveraged that, by telling a certain rabid sect exactly what they would like to hear. I have no doubt that this guy doesn't believe any of this, and he's no better than Glenn Beck.

At least Rush-at one time anyway-probably believed a lot of what he was saying (even if it was wrong). But due to the fringe being a fairly big money making machine, Rush has shifted gears and plays much more to the conspiracy crowd now than he used to.

Sometimes, they even punch Israelis in the face when they hear them talk ill about the Palis

From my experience, they're mostly the type of cowards who stick to keyboard combat. Which is probably the most intelligent decision they're capable of.

It's always struck me that by far the most sensible conspiracy theory about this election would be the idea that Trump is a Democrat who is deliberately trying to make himself as unelectable as possible in order to ensure Hillary wins.

Is this an Alex Jones theory? It wouldn't surprise me. I'm not buying it though.

As the 2016 campaign draws to a close, it's interesting to see the complete mental collapse of Alex Jones, who has surely got more paranoid and hysterical as time has gone on, which has culminated in him crying on the airwaves and putting out the idea that Obama and Hillary are literally demons.

Watching his bizarre behaviour over the years has led me to question: Is Jones actually severely mentally unwell and has been for some time? If you knew him outside the context of a radio/rb show wouldn't you think he was?

Perhaps this guy needs sympathy more than anything else.

No and no. He is like Trump, having identified a subset of humanity that is as sick or at least utterly ignorant and he is profiting in one way or another from it.
