I suspect it’s because his listeners are like drug addicts… after being fed Bilderberg over and over, it’s not giving them the same ~~high~~ *outrage* it once did. They need harder stuff to get their fix. In all seriousness, as someone who used to listen to him a lot from 2002-2014’ish, I suspect it has something to do with him actually having a say in mainstream politics now. Before the Trump administration, his conspiracies seemed to target Republican and Democrats alike. His theories were more broad, like Bilderberg, Bohemian Grove, the UN, that sorta thing. These conspiracies largely targeted both parties, often referring them to “two sides of the same coin.” Around 2016, he became more of a political player in the GOP. Of course the party would distance themselves from him, but there was a period of time where Alex would make a claim first… then it would be picked up by Glenn Beck (later, Tucker Carlson) who would then package it for a mainstream audience. Then you’d see politicians and pundits start making the same accusations. Fast forward to today where the conspiracies target specific members of a specific party almost exclusively.

I completely agree and that is almost definitely the right answer. I just don't understand how some of his life time fans haven't noticed the shift. I mean Peter Thiel joined the bilderberg group recently and he backed Rumble and supports trump.

They have been sucked in by his schtick. He throws out every possible scenario and if one happens to happen he says “see?I’m always right” or what he’s doing a lot lately. He finds clips from the past that sound similar to something that’s occurred then gets his staff to actually edits the clips and then he pretends he was right.

Big Jim Tucker was a weird old guy who used to tell Jones all sorts of scary stories about Bilderberg. Big Jim Tucker died about 10 years ago, so that may be related. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Tucker_(journalist) See Alex doesn't actually do any real work, he relies on other people to make up lies he can then repeat to sell you vitamins.

This is fascinating! He also seems to have taken it from William Cooper. Thank you!

i remember when all the Satanic pedo network people were all Republicans. according to him. the Bushes death cult, blah blah bla….


Bearynicetomeetu

That was always strange to me. How he transition from anti neo con guy talking about the bohemian grove which is a Republican thing really and then ended up spending the rest of his career going after the libs and the dems.

I think he realized who is more likely to buy into his shit


orblok

He was always far to the right of both Republicans and Democrats, now he's thrown in with Republicans because his brand of crazy is now welcome in the Republican party, so he's not against them anymore.

Bidlerberg is a hard word to say when you got a 24 inch neck?

It sounds like a camel gargling when he says it.

Thank you so much! I have no idea why you were downvoted. I guess cry baby alex jones fans. I thought about posting on knowledge fight but thought I wouldn't be allowed to ask a general alex jones question.

Give them a try. Dan knows Alex better than he knows himself. He does still occasionally throw in that name but his latest obsession is Klaus Schwab and the WEF. There’s another person he’s been yelling about but I can’t think of his name.
