Someone should send Ed Encho a PM and ask him to weigh in on this. I'll let him speak for himself.
But to suggest that Alex Jones, even in a the day of the faster, quicker, larger-audience Internet, is in the same league with the likes of Pepper, or Douglass, or Griffin, or Peter Dale Scott, or even the lower tier of luminaries (some of whom post here, more of whom read here), is to inflate Jones beyond reason, or to demean the energies and staggering intellectual, cognitive or courageous attributes of the rare leaders.
It may even cheapen us readers who soon must address slowly-arising threats and dangers.
To suggest that a golden age of truth and liberty is around the corner is wishful thinking; let us all wish in unison, with all our synaptic powers of crystalline realization, or by clicking our heels three times. I hope it works. I doubt it will with Alex Jones in the forefront. A more sobering thought, using our cognitive abilities, may be that that approaching golden age is magical thinking.
The age that approaches will be Dark indeed. If we "conspiracy theorists" wish to see a golden age, we best start planting its seeds in our grandchildren's minds and educational systems.
