He poisons the well of every movement he attaches himself to by acting like a nutcase. Him being a nutcase was what made him hilarious at first, until he started to get involved in politics. Now he drags people down. If you have a movement going about, do not let Alex Jones get involved. He will make your movement look bad, like how TRAs, intersectionalists and radical queer activists make the gay community look bad.

What was Alex Jones like when you met him?

He needed me so he was very accommodating. He was energetic, loud, a hustler - like a carnival barker. He seemed passionate about the cause he was espousing, which I soon realized was a front - he was just goading people who were sincere believers into doing things that would make him money.

That being said, I don't think he was as bad then as he is now. And I would never have guessed that he would become the influential figure he is today - he just seemed like one of many fringe nutcase leaders.
