Alex Jones and reality have not been on speaking terms for years. This time, the right-wing whackadoodle who earlier claimed
the Boston marathon bombing was a false-flag operation until it was revealed that the
bomber was a fan,
has come out and claimed that Obama is a super villain, with the power
to control the weather! And to demonstrate his power, the president
decided on using it on poor, helpless
Oklahoma:
Now, this is not the first time that Alex Jones and other conspiracy
theorists have claimed that the government has the ability to create
weather. We can all recall a similar claim made
last year, that Obama created a hurricane to disrupt the Republican National Convention.
Now it is that Obama, and the “evil government” are out to destroy
random citizens in Oklahoma. This is a plot right out of a super villain
handbook.
At least with the hurricane, it actually had a purpose, to these
conspiracy theorists. This time, it is pure villany. No reason is given,
no logic behind the operation, it is being done just for pure evils
sake. But for Alex Jones and his audience, it is the proof of their idea
that the government is evil.
Proof, who needs proof? They know it has
to be the government, because who else would be so evil?
What do you
mean that tornado’s happen? This one hurt people, that has to be the
government, you understand! They are super villains, out to destroy “the
American way of life” by doing… something? The leap of logic Alex Jones
needs to make this claim is so vast, it dwarfs the imagination even
contemplating it.
It is a tragedy, and it is of no surprise that Alex Jones is seeking
to exploit it in order to fill his own coffers. Now he will seek to
exploit this tragedy to push his latest books, podcasts, feeding the
paranoia of those like Tamerlan Tsarnaev who then act out as
lone wolves, carrying out terrorist attacks against the very government which Alex Jones is wishing to bring down.
