Alex Jones mocked for saying he’ll ‘eat a**’ after rant about cannibalism to ensure his kids survive pandemic
Alex Jones of the “I don't like (the government) putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin’ frogs gay” fame has now alarmed the world with his imminent cannibalism. The right-wing conspiracy theorist on Friday, May 1, released a video in which he discussed eating his own neighbors in the event of the COVID-19 lockdown continuing.
Yes.
“I’ll admit it. I will eat my neighbors. I’m not letting my kids die. I’m just going to be honest,” Jones said during a segment of ‘InfoWars’. “I have extrapolated this out. I won’t have to for a few years, because I have food and stuff. But I’m literally looking at my neighbors now, going, ‘Am I ready to hang them up and gut them and skin them and chop them up?’ And you know what, I’m ready. My daughters aren’t starving to death. I’ll eat my neighbors... I’ll eat your a**, I will.”
He angrily blamed the “globalists” for instituting lockdowns and forcing him to consider cannibalism.
“I'm a combat model. Optimum self-efficiency. Probably the leader,” Jones further said. “My point is, have you thought about this yet? Because I’m somebody that thought I could fix this, and I’m starting to think about having to eat my neighbors. You think I like sizing up my neighbor, how I’m gonna haul him up by a chain? Chop his a** up? I’ll do it. My children aren’t going hungry. I will eat your a**. That’s what I want the globalists to know. I will eat your a** first.”
You would think that you've already heard the most bizarre thing Alex Jones has to offer in the form of either the Sandy Hook shooting being staged, or former Fox News host Glenn Beck being a CIA operative, but “I’ll eat my neighbors… I’ll eat your a**” takes the cake.
Jones’ increasingly bizarre rants on his shows have had repercussions. In 2018, Facebook, Apple, YouTube, and Spotify removed Jones’ content from their sites. Following that, even Vimeo, Mailchimp, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Twitter disassociated themselves from his brand.
The only verified Alex Jones (plural) on Twitter right now is the British footballer Alexander Richard Jones, and the ‘One Show’ presenter Alex Jones Thomson, both of whom on occasion receive misdirected anger or incredulity. Like today when a Twitter user asked the footballer if he was really going to eat his neighbor’s a**. Jones responded with, “The sooner you lot realize I’m not the American Alex Jones the better you know.”
Needless to say, Jones’ cannibalistic rant led to a lot of commentary on Twitter. Most of them were fixated on the idea of Jones “eating a**”, which is both funny and disturbing at the same time. Even conservative political commentator and journalist Ben Shapiro couldn’t help himself when he wrote, “Alex Jones eating his neighbors' a** Twitter is the best Twitter.”
Author and journalist Bridget Phetasy commented, “Just had to explain to my therapist who Alex Jones is and she paused and said, ‘We have a mental health crisis in this country’.”
Hasan Piker of ‘The Young Turks’ noted, “Alex Jones would have been the greatest entertainer of our generation if we had better public education in this country and people watched him as entertainment instead of believing things he says.”
It was an opinion reflected by Vice journalist Matthew Gault, who wrote in his report, “I grew up in Texas and I grew up listening to Alex Jones... He was the kind of character I’d put on in the background of a party while my friends got high for us to laugh at. He was mostly dull, but inevitably, he’d get angry and rant about turning the frogs gay or the clockwork elves that live beyond our dimension… No one seemed to take him seriously. Everyone laughed at him.”
Bill Palmer, of the Left-wing analysis portal Palmer Report, however, chose to not attack Jones, but the mainstream media for providing him a platform for several years. He wrote, “The media built up Alex Jones as a bogey man so they could milk him for ratings, and look respectable by kicking him around. He went along with it for free exposure. But in the process, the media gave an unstable man's dangerous hallucinations a mainstream platform. Shame on them.”
He added, “It's one thing to kick around Ann Coulter, who purposely says calculated dumb things so you'll kick her around, so she'll get exposure and sell more books. But Jones is an unstable man who belongs in a mental health treatment facility. I don't care to hear what he says, period.”
