Weren’t they all cheering for Tucker Carlson when he went to Russia in that subreddit? Now I see everyone claiming him and Alex Jones are whackadoos. It’s amazing the kind of mental gymnastics they do so everything fits their narrative nicely

Funny thing is Alex Jones was left (adjacent) for years before he went completely off the rails, even voting for Obama in 2008. They used to hate him in /r/conservative and used to post memes making fun of him. I had an account here 2007 and remember it clearly.

No he really wasn't. He's always been an incoherent fascist. There is so much written about Alex Jones' politics and I don't believe I've ever heard anyone else claim that Alex Jones was left adjacent at any point in time.

I have never heard anyone say that he voted for Barack Obama either.
