    Anyone here trying to defend Jones at any part of his life should listen to knowledge fight. He’s always been a fraud and idiot.

      you’re absolutely right.

      i didn’t post this to defend him or to facilitate his defense in any way. fortunately, nobody here is doing that.

      this is probably the nicest slice of early alex jones in media that wasn’t local texas radio. you can see here that he found his voice very early on. he used his voice in the early '00s to rail against the police state and impending authoritarianism of the george w bush regime. i think it’s important for people to see how he has used his (very fucking effective) voice in the past for other, very different messages than he’s spouted since he hit the mainstream.
