Alex's worldview is basically just sloppy, rewritten Nazi propaganda that his dad passed on to him from Cold War diehards.

Alex isn't saying this directly, but I'm left to assume that he views people who aren't from one of these four power blocks as less than human. They don't really count, and they don't get to be considered in terms of old beefs.
This is the path where he just accepts that the world is complicated, and sometimes bad things happen, and no one planned them to be that way. It's an explanation that would suffice for the majority of the news that Alex ever covers, but then pretends are false flags, which is why it's strange to hear him use this approach here.
Unfortunately, if Alex actually followed that as a basis for his definition of freedom, all of his political positions would collapse immediately. His worldview is almost wholly based on pursuing policies that require you to adhere to his rules, mostly derived from extreme right-wing white identity Christianity.
So one thing that we miss out on a lot is the rest of the world. Yes, that's true. Because Alex has a very Western-centric viewpoint. He's a chauvinist. Yes.
And an intellectual child who just... You know, bases essentially all of his worldview on dumb shit that he read when he was younger and hasn't updated really any of it. Hangs out with ding-dongs like David Icke who admit that they're just doing improvised storytelling to create a worldview and conspiracies along the way. It's fucking nonsense.
I think that Alex has gotten into trouble, obviously, with the Sandy Hook knee-jerk reaction of thinking, oh, this must be fake. It's just super consistent with him. Everything must fit into the storyline and the overarching narrative that he believes. You can see Red reinforcing that with putting everything on a certain trajectory. Ruby Ridge, the bombing of the World Trade Center, Oklahoma City, 9-11. It's all... Part of a progression to him as a, like, all of these things are being done by the globalists against the patriots.
But I think this offers us a really interesting window into seeing how Alex views the world. Like, in his mind, the globalists are saying that all gun owners are evil, and what he did was hijack that narrative and show the world it isn't true. But in reality, no one really was saying that gun owners are all evil.
And so much of his fear and so much of his rhetoric is about there being a plan to destroy whites or a plan to get rid of the middle class, which he very clearly expresses is mostly white.
It's difficult to because what you're trying to empathize with is a completely scared and completely externalized worldview. Like everything is a threat and all these threats are connected.
Well, but the difference between that and Alex Jones creating an entire worldview that involves intentional poisoning of the water and destruction of Christian Christendom systems. Sure. As a way to attack white people.
So, Jordan, today we're going to be doing a very special episode wherein I defend my assertion. That Alex Jones is largely basing his worldview on the widely discredited forgery, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
I don't think it's parallel thinking because there's too much overlap. Yeah. You know, I don't want to call Alex a hack. Because that's a title that sticks. Anytime he tries with comedy, he's definitely hacky. Oh, Jesus. Go back to our third episode? Second? I don't know. All of them. Yeah, he does try comedy quite a bit, but I meant the stand-up comedy. Ooh, yeah, I remember that. That's episode two, guys. Go back in the archives. I am not willing to believe parallel thinking, but what I am willing to believe is parallel sourcing. Like I said, with books that he buys into and narratives that he believes, those are also heavily based on protocols.
Okay, one, this also supports he's living in a movie or an episode of 24. Yeah. That's what he's living in. He's not living in reality.
