Alex Jones is maybe the only right wing artist/entertainer who isn't entirely stifled by cowardice and perverse attachment to their own perceived dignity, while also having an earnest and energetic passion for what he does. He's actually saying something pretty valuable about the world, albeit unintentionally. I don't mean all the actual conspiracy BS, the valuable thing about Alex is almost entirely in his act.

right wing performance art is essentially mainstream now - and I'm not talking about Rush or Milo or Alex, because after all what is Donald Trump if not a performance artist?

what's so valuable about Alex is that he's so much more honest, earnest, and powerful than the rest of them, while still maintaining (only) the most tenuous possible grip on his sanity. that's what the best art is!

alex is good.

Agreed. Alex Jones is good and entertaining and the world is a more interesting place for him being in it. I can't imagine how sad a person you'd have to be to take his gonzo act seriously enough to actually, genuinely despise him.

I'm going to go with people who've had the repercussions of his deluded ideas effect their lives, by means of people who DO take his insane rants as the gospel truth. Personally I'm just as offended by his ideas as I am entertained, offended by every borderline psychotic he gives that tiny little push over the edge. Its all fun and games till someone gets hurt, and while he's not solely responsible for the mainstreaming of insanity, he sure has a hand in it.

Years ago someone had a YouTube doubler with a video of Jones just screaming with some dramatic classical music. There was also one with the same screaming vid synced to "Goat screams like a man". They both made me lol. If anyone could recreate this, it would be much appreciated.

Yeah, this. Interpreting Alex Jones as "Gonzo performance artist, whether he realizes it or not" is funny enough for a bunch of people sitting around an internet comedy forum, same way it's great to laugh at Donald Trump for leading the worst of the Republican party straight into the ditch, but these people and their ideas do have real consequences for real people.

Yeah, I notice how he emphasizes "speak calmly and be respectful" when talking about interacting with non-believers. Would be curious to know if he picked that up after people like the Boston bombers turned out to be fans.
