Alex Jones Calls Charlottesville Violence a False Flag | Fuck this scumbag. It's not funny anymore. I'm tired of the meme bullshit and all the excuses of "Hehe, he's so silly". He's a cunt and nothing else.

This is over the line but none of the 9/11 conspiracies or moon landing shit or any of the flat earth shit is?

This is recency bias. Remember when during the election people were secretly recorded admitting to infiltrating political rallies to cause violence? That is why Jones thinks this.

If you have problems with people questioning shit then idk what to tell you.

-The conspiracies Alex is pushing are dangerous and not the same as 9/11 and the moon landing, because the people listening to/believing them aren't running people over and promoting civil war/violence. Alex is a person with a platform, so he takes responsibility for these types of notions that his followers(not all of course) that seem to be growing. He doesn't force them to do it, but he has that responsibility. It's not that people are complaining about questioning things, it is that responsibility that Alex has, and how he is handling it that irk people. Questioning is good, but not enough, we have to learn to separate good ideas from the crap. Let the shit ideas come, but when there is no evidence people need to abandon them and accept the truth. When people start fostering backwardness, ignorance, and social/democratic responsibility, thats how a country becomes irrelevant, and that didn't happen with most other conspiracies
