The liberal brain defect is so outraged by irrational insanity there’s a fortune in fame waiting for anybody lacking enough integrity but with enough cunning to jerk it around. I see Alec Jones as an unscrupulous but talented comedic. His crying act was brilliant. And if in fact he’s waided too far into the deep end, well, it’s still pretty funny.

Why does anyone waste the time to follow people like Jones and Hannity?

Confirmation bias. People like trump and Jones use peoples confirmation bias to attract them. They watch/follow them because they legitimizes their fears and biases. Its a billion dollar industry to tell people what they want to hear.

I understand that aspect but, you don't have to be brilliant to see these folks are batshit crazy.

Yeah but to realize that trump, Jones and the like are bat shit crazy means they would have to admit they themselves are bat shit crazy.

The damage Alex Jones has done cannot be fixed through a simple apology. In fact, it is irreparable harm.

Like an arson setting fire and saying "opps, my bad".

It's pretty scary to think there are enough loony toons out there to give these hate filled fear mongers any kind of a credible voice. I'd be willing to build a wall to keep them in. Maybe give them Florida?

That was great. Every word he spoke was the truth but he said it inn a way that made him sound insane. And he got a he other guy going to compete for attention.

Maybe I am naive but to me he sounds like someone who is buying his own bullshit... And like with Trump I am hesitant to interpret the true meaning of what he spouts.. like "interdimensional demons" to some sane level of english. It is like putting you in front of some abstract art and then ask you to put your own meaning into the piece .. no thanks.
