He's a very well known American right wing conspiracy theorist.
He started off in the late 90's with mostly the usual stuff (Illuminati controlling the world, 9/11 an inside job, Chemtrails and the like), but in the past few years he's swerved violently off towards the right wing christian nationalist crowd. Lots of talking about demons, devil worshipping and child sacrifice amongst 'THE ELITE' and all that, He's mostly been a bit of a meme for a while:
The problem is, hilarious as he seems to be to sane minded people, he actually has a lot of people who follow him and believe a lot of the nonsense he spouts.
In this case, he falsely claimed that the Sandy Hook massacre (a school shooting where 27 people were killed, most of them very young children) was a fake story and that no children were really killed, all acted out to justify stronger gun laws so they can "take away your guns"
Some of the parents of the murdered children were targeted by Jone's followers and accused of being crisis actors and some had to go into hiding.
This case is the parents suing him for defamation over his comments and subsequent refusal to apologise or retract his statements.
The guy is an absolute POS and I hope they take every last penny from him.
Alex Jones concedes Sandy Hook attack was '100% real'
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — For years, bombastic far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones ranted to his millions of followers that the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting was a hoax, that children weren’t killed and that parents were crisis actors in an elaborate ruse to force gun control.apnews.com
Clearly a lot of it is an act, I think that meathead Rogan said as much, that it's more of a character then his actual personality.Deary me.
I struggle to figure out how much of it he believes, or how much of it is pure grifting because he likes the fame, attention, and money.
It's the sort of stuff that's like an evil flipside to Brass Eye and what Chris Morris does. But with far more horrible consequences. Either of the above reasons ilarent great, but if he's grifting it's arguably worse - because he knows nutters are lapping it up with the chance of trouble and stirring it for personal gain.
What a tit.
There was a cross over with the likes of him and Mark Dice. They started off about the illuminati and deep state etc. Dont trust the government. Then at some point they discovered bigger money in right wing Christian Republican idiots and owning the libs. Think it was in sync with Donald trump.Clearly a lot of it is an act, I think that meathead Rogan said as much, that it's more of a character then his actual personality.
I do think he believes a lot of the conspiracy stuff though. But yeah, still a massive grifter.
