how can a sane person believe his loony propaganda? here's a video with dozens of his predictions one, for example, is that the american dollar is going to collapse in 9 to 12 months of course that prediction was made in 2009 [video=youtube;ZwURLwd8pEA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwURLwd8pEA[/video]
For his faithful, it doesn't really matter that he's factually wrong. What matters is that he says the sorts of things they like to hear.
yea, a lot of them are just kids they think they've discovered some sort of secret not realizing they're just being manipulated and subjugated
He is the "king" of Infowar, a forum that PRETENDS to be liberterian, but is really just trying to raise chaos with the goal of a "revolution!" Many of the Infowar (and Prison Planet) addicts are among the most extreme posters in Political Forum. It is a horrible person who pries on young kids and encourages them to go totally bunker!
He's not nuts. He's doing it on purpose, and yes, his rhetoric seems to be purposefully inciting for rebellion. At the least, he is trying to sell more video's and I'll credit him for being astute enough to recognize the market for fear as he did. However, I also see this guy as potentially dangerous. Things will continue to degrade in this country, and when it hits a certain point, people are going to be struggling, hurting, angry, and looking for a reason. Just like the mad-preacher in medieval times, this fools words may be the insanity people cling to and act on. It's not just him either. Donald Trump and other expendable celebrities seem to be hinting at or suggesting civil revolt- keeping it fresh in the mind. I really hope that never happens. That's the quickest way to martial law I can think of, and it's all downhill from there.
I have noticed that more often than not, Infowars/Alex Jones fans are also Ron Paul supporters. It's one of the things that have always turned me off to Mr. Paul. I don't want to be voting for the same guy that the conspiracy theory/fear addicts are voting for. Just doesn't seem prudent.
Lol, I thought I was the only one. I didn't like Ron Paul because he seemed to be "too good". He is like Warren Buffet. You know how Warren Buffet likes to jab at millionaires and billionaires such as himself, and wear relatively cheap and plain clothes to show he's just a simple man? Well, hello, he's a BILLIONAIRE. You don't earn a billion dollars through harmless speculation over stocks, and you can be dressed in a fish barrel for all it matters, you still take in the same entitlements as every other wealthy person. The guys bread-maker is spotting such holes, trends, and gaps, and other such ways to squeeze a dollar out of thin air. He exists to find ways to make money, and make more of it not just for himself, but other wealthy people and here he is pretending to be in touch with the common man and all that. Bollocks. That's how Ron Paul strikes me. A career politician bad-mouthing other politicians and wanting to run for head-politician in order to fix all those other naughty politicians. If the government were a corporation, Ron Paul just seems like another brand they are trying to sell me. Whichever one I chose, my money ends up in the same hands.
Well, things go down and up and down and sometimes you don't come back up. America has been down many times. We've had a lot of depressions, they just aren't taught, and generally people do NOT riot and all that in a depression, but they could if they were purposefully incited. It's all speculation though, and this Jones guy seems like he hands you Kool Aid and a molotov cocktail.
alex is a facetious clown Panic of 1797 Depression of 1807 Depression of 1815 Panic of 1819 Panic of 1825 Panic of 1837 Panic of 1847 Panic of 1857 Panic of 1866 Black Friday (1869) Depression of 1873 Panic of 1884 Panic of 1890 Panic of 1893 Depression of 1896 Panic of 1901 Panic of 1907 Panic of 1910-1911 things are more stable now
Im no Alex Jones listener, supporter ect, but Dems having a go about incitement? Surely not. Every crack pot kook socialist marxist commi is on the left. They have more than their fair share who would love nothing more than to bring down capitalism and drag the dead bodies of the rich through the streets. Democrats have no issue at all with association of extremists.
Well duh.....socialists and marxists and communists(these are three different things you know) are all to the left of center. That is sort of like saying Every crack pot kook nazi fascist neocon is on the right..... There are crack pots on both sides- no doubt- but Alex Jones seems a particularly cracked pot.
a. theres (*)(*)(*)(*)load more of them than Nazis b. the left appear to have equal appetite for war and certainly more for domestic violence c. I dispute Nazi ideology is right, its closer to left. Nazi: Nationalism from the collectivism of the socialist ideology - left Economically: anti capitalist - left Socially/ racial policy - this is where the left claim he is right wing. But even that appears to have its roots in Darwinism. Hard to say Darwinism is left or right but it was heavily supported by the progressives of the era.

there hasn't been a depression in this country in over 70 years do you mean democrats have no problem associating with extremists? i don't think that's generally true he's a pawn of the intelligent design movement
It really is immaterial whether Nazi's are left or right. Calling the right Nazi's is intended to be an emotional insult just like lumping Communists with Socialist with Democrats is intended to invoke a negative emotional response. Democrats are no more like Communists than Republicans are like Nazi's- yet both sides regularly use these terms for emotional responses- as in: Every crack pot kook socialist marxist commi is on the left. Whether or not Nazism is left or right- like many things we can probably find items that each side would place it on the left or the right. For instance- Nazism favored private property and freedom of contract. Nazi's outlawed strikes. Nazi's promoted nationalism- and villified foreigners and immigrants. Nazi's were virulently opposed to homosexuality. Nazi's were virulently opposed to Communism and Marxism. However- you can find plenty of examples of Nazi policies that could be considered "Left". Nazism really doesn't fit well into either the left or right mold- it is just a useful emotional insult similarly to calling anyone on the left a Communist.
which is based on the same sort of ideals that american patriotism is you know, the rhetoric you hear from the tea party like 'take our country back'
I think you mean "real Patriots" - meaning anyone who agrees with the Tea Party?- i.e. extreme Nationalism. I am all for genuine American patriotism- which has nothing to do with being either to the left or the right.
