there's faking it, and there's faking it, you know? does he really want to be the network guy, yes. is he really the network guy, probably not.

I mean, he's for real, but in a certain kind of obviously stylized way

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.

look obviously right wing crazies are going to exist whether alex jones 'gives them a voice' or whether they 'gave him an audience', it's a real phenomena and we can't pretend it isn't.

I just want to say I very much respect his craft, even if I find the ends horrible

It's absolutely fair to hold Alex Jones accountable for what his fans do because he preys on mentally unbalanced people and encourages them to go crazier.

In the cold light of day I can't deny it... And there's a lot about Mr. Jones I still don't know. I supposed I'd feel very differently if someone I cared about was wrapped up in his lunacy. It would all be a lot less funny.

His mode of expression is as far as I'm concerned the most perfect and accurate way to talk about this election. Even if what he says is wrong and bad, the mode is so perfect, I can't get over it.
