It's Alex Jones. That's Tuesday for him.

Quote from: celedhring on December 02, 2022, 07:56:33 AMAlso, Ye needs help.
Yeah. It feels like if this was a normal person who wasn't incredibly rich and famous his loved ones would have staged an intervention a while ago.

It seems to me that whoever can be called his "family and loved ones" have more or less given up on him, in case there's any of them left around him at this point.

This was on Alex Jones' show, hardly a media luminary.

I think it's just pretty prurient inviting him on. You'll get controversy, but you know what's coming. Although, admittedly Infowars isn't a bastion of journalistic principles.

Btw, what might be closer for West at this point is actually bankruptcy, I think:

QuoteKanye West said the IRS put a $75 million hold on 4 of his accounts because he owes $50 million in taxes

And he's just been ordered to pay something like 200k monthly to Kim Kardashian for child support as part of their divorce

Ye had a chance to be remembered for "poop, poop-e-di-scoop", but noooo. It had to be Nazism.

It seems that, to the faintest and feeblest of credits, West's nazi stuff was even too much for Alex Jones.  :lol:

Yeah it's quite something when Alex Jones becomes the voice of reason in an interview...

I don't think Infowars needs West to generate controversy and prurient interest.

The two different names are a bit of a giveaway.
