In reply to the discussion: OMFG, Alex Jones Shits Himself on Huffpost Live. [View all]Demo_Chris
(6,234 posts)I really don't know much about the guy other than that he has been around saying this stuff forever. I believe he was the person behind the 9-11 conspiracy movie "Loose Change." In any case, one thing is sure, the guy is NOT a Republican. He despises BOTH parties and the feeling is clearly mutual.
I want to be clear: I am not suggesting that anyone run out and become an Alex Jones fan!
I found it interesting that here is a guy saying things that are largely correct, and expressing sentiments that aren't far from what you see regularly posted here, and yet his comments were instantly dismissed. Let's review his positions:
* I am fired up about liberty, the second amendment is only one small part
Me too!
* Globalists run our government and plan to bankrupt our country
Yeah, pretty much.
* America is passive, in a trance...With Drone killings, Secret arrests, NDAA, Banker Bailouts, Wall Street Corruption
I agree!
* It's time to get a pulse again! It's time to get mad and say: 'I'm a human being, my life has value.'
You mean everyone and not just the 1%? That's heresy sir!
* I want you to get mad, I want you to realize that the American dream is becoming a nightmare.
The dream has always been bullshit for most, but I agree.
* Our liberties are being systematically eradicated. Major universities call us one of the worst police states in the world.
Secret prisons, domestic spying that would make Big Brother blush, indefinate detainment without trial, government sanctioned murder without a trial, torture... I could go on but someone's at the door.
* They are openly trying to curtail internet freedom.
Yes they are. The internet is the LAST HOPE for the future.
* Global mega-banks are exempt from all the laws, don't even hardly pay taxes, but lobby to raise taxes on us here domestically so that they can extract our wealth in corporate welfare.
Again, correct. And both parties are helping them.
* Learn about the New World Order.
Wat?
* Learn about the globalists and how they fund Fascist, Communist, and Socialist regimes -- anything that's centralized.
We part ways here Alex, but it's possible your point doesn't reduce well to a soundbite.
* Learn about eugenics and the cancer viruses, vaccines, the GMO designed to sterilize you, learn!
I will if I have time. But it will probably depress me.
* They put poison in the water.
Only if there is a profit in it or minorities and poor people will guzzle it down.
* Anger is a normal response to this. This is how we should have responded to Hitler.
Anger would be good, yes.
* We're in danger.
Yes we are.
* They control both parties, wake up!
I am awake, and you are correct.
