Alex Jones heckled at Virginia Gun Rally: "What about the gay frogs!"






Some context:

NBC: Alex Jones’ 5 most disturbing and ridiculous conspiracy theories

Chemicals in the water are turning frogs gay
One of Jones’ most notorious conspiracy theories is that the government is using chemicals in order to turn people gay, using a mysterious “gay bomb” devised by the Pentagon.

“The reason there’s so many gay people now is because it’s a chemical warfare operation, and I have the government documents where they said they’re going to encourage homosexuality with chemicals so that people don’t have children,” he said on his broadcast in 2010, according to NBC News.

Five years later, the theory took a turn. In a rant that has since become a meme and a line of t-shirts, Jones said he didn’t like the government “putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin’ frogs gay.”

There's a video of him pledging allegiance to the Russian flag on YT, he's probably there out some contractual obligation to the NRA.

Lol, that's pretty much what Gen Z knows about Alex Jones. He's a meme to them. Somebody to be laughed at. I only know about that meme because of my kids too. It's pretty funny.
