The Hypocrisy of Alex Jones: In Videos

Google Images

Twenty or so years ago, Alex Jones was one of the pioneers of the truth movement. He was courageous as well as non-partisan and he ferreted out corruption no matter what the political inclinations of the perpetrators... but that Alex Jones is long gone- replaced with an unbalanced, narcissistic loud mouth whose hubris often prevents his guests from making a point. That's why I stopped watching him some time ago... after all who really wants to listen to someone rave about how wonderful they are. The last video I watched of him began with Alex spending about 5-10 minutes talking about how brilliant he was as a child followed by an interview in which the guest barely got any airtime. Every time he attempted to make a point Alex cut him off to interject his own opinion. But that isn't really the point I want to make.

These first two videos are a part of an interview with Sen. Nancy Schaefer about the abuses in the corrupt CPS/Family Court System from 2009 in which Alex goes to great lengths to criticize the lack of due process, the lack of overall justice, the unconstitutional "Kafkaesque" nature of the court proceedings calling it an extension of the Eugenics Courts of the past talking about kickbacks, bounties on children, judges being "the real evil." He then goes on to talk about personally seeing first hand the children being wrenched from their mothers. In the beginning of the second video he talks about going to family courts himself and witnessing the corruption.

The reason I chose these videos is because it is this very court (Family Court in Austin TX) the one he so vehemently condemned, that he used to "wrench the children from their mother." In this case his ex-wife Kelly. Although limited by injunctions as to what she could disclose, Kelly Jones said that he claimed under oath that any footage from InfoWars should be inadmissible because he is just an actor doing a job and is therefore irrelevant. She also said that the Alex Jones of today is a vastly different person than the Alex of old, who was completely unbiased and non-partisan. She claimed that over the years he has become paranoid and narcissistic. Ironically, at around the 22.30 mark she sounds almost like Alex in the Schaefer interviews disclosing the corruption in the family court system, only this time he's using it against her with almost non-stop litigation...

I can't say that I care much for this David Parkman character, he seems to have an agenda of his own- attempting to elicit certain responses... But how do you reconcile Alex's behavior from someone who claims to be all about the truth?

I don't know anything about the specifics of the divorce- there are always two sides to the story and they're generally diametrically opposed. What troubles me is how could a man who so soundly condemns the family court system- not only in general, but the very jurisdiction in which he's in- and then use it against someone he once loved? Personally, I judge people by how they treat those around them. When my own wife decided to get a divorce, I never said anything negative about her out of deference to my children. If Alex is so dedicated to the truth why would he use his power to have the court impose injunctions against what Kelly can say about him? Moreover, why would someone so concerned about truth and honesty make his employees sign non-disclosure agreements enjoining from saying anything bad about him... unless he's paranoid and there's plenty of bad things to say.

The truth movement owes a lot to Alex Jones... the Alex Jones of yesteryear who exposed the Bohemian Grove, the Bilderbergs, etc. He is responsible for red pilling many people and for that he deserves credit. Lamentably, this is not the Alex of today... the raving lunatic who seems to have replaced passion with mental illness. The first five minutes of this video is all that's necessary- it shows him at his worst. The rest I didn't watch because it was all derision. I don't believe that Alex is evil, he may be but I think that it's a combination- some people can't handle power. Success seems to have gone to his head. Power and narcissism are a lethal combination... It's really a shame- I miss Alex.
