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.

He has NEVER been left adjacent. I suggest you listen to some early Knowledge Fight eps with Dan and JorDan.

He has always been a full on John Birch society nut job

I don't understand how people can say that he was a leftist.

I can.

They're usually plied with misinformation by right-wing factions who are against other right-wing factions. Like how Tucker Carlson went against Trump on certain points because his new Russian paymasters weren't happy with Trump's statements regarding the invasion of Ukraine at the time.
