Is anybody surprised he's a greasy little con merchant?

Actually given how much money he makes peddling snake oil to gullible people, probably quite a few would be surprised.

The way American culture is devolving, Alex Jones is the perfect spokesman for the Trump WH...believe me.

But he is spot on about Sandy Hook, Las Vegas and the other false flag events. imo He maybe crazy, but he isn't stupid and knows people.

or....

AJ could be some kind of surreal Zen performance artist to disseminate essential truth via hypnagogic imagery.

whatever Alex is...fantastic entertainment, never dull, pushing the envelope and tearing it to shreds.






He could also be disinformation to make conspiracies seem like crazy ideas.

So infoWars readers may have more brain damage than originally thought?

Is that possible?

I do not buy his stuff, and primarily watch for sheer amusements sake...

But I know over the years several common supplements had high levels of heavy metals and Arsenic in them.

I do not do supplements beyond vitamins and fish oil so I never chased the story to far, but it is not just an Infowars problem.

Wait, Joe Rogan gives his interviewees alcohol and weed? Way better than being interviewed by AM.

You all do realize that Alex Jones and his business doesn't make any of the products he sells right? He's a private label distributor. Do you know how that works? Anyone else here work in the manufacturing world? I'm pretty sure he didn't call up his manufacturer for those products and ask them to put lead in it.

I know everyone loves to hate on the gay frogs - I mean Alex Jones. Can't hate on gay frogs, that's like a hate crime now. But you are going to need to look at the actual manufacturer and where they obtained their raw materials if you want to deny ignorance here.

you shouldnt have gotten even one star for this deceptive garbage of a post.

first of all the article is itself total misdirection and distortion. They could only find TWO products out of all those Alex sells that they could even remotely find a problem with.

oh, and what is that so called problem they found?




People who take the daily recommended dose of the Formula product would ingest more than twice the daily limit for lead under California law


This statement is on the face of it totally absurd

For starters lets just take "Caveman". The recommended dosage is ONE SCOOP. Now, interestingly the article doesnt even mention what the serving size is or even give any details about exactly how much the California standard is and how one is able to exceed it taking the "recommended dosage". So they are totally trafficking in obscure boogeyman scare tactics here when the reality is every product Alex makes CONFORMS TO CALIFORNIA STANDARDS therefore either that claim is incorrect (which the article doesnt even touch because they KNOW its the truth) OR they are misleading the reader by fudging the "recommended dosage" which is whatever they fantasize it could be, which is why they wont say what the TRUE recommended dosage is on the package itself.

Furthermore, since they ARE in fact referencing the California standard it is a tacit admission that Alex's products DO conform to California standards because they are the most exacting in the ENTIRE NATION. Therefore, alleging that someone can "overdose" on their daily miniscule EPA maximum lead intake by a whopping 200 percent thats really not saying much guys.

How badly do you want to be embarrassed here when i start posting the dozens of products that contain more lead than either of these two Infowars products?


Total deception, patently false and misleading information and anyone that has more than 2 brain cells to rub together can see the blatant smear campaign talking points and lack of specificity that usually marks such worthless drivel.

You mean he's not in the backroom at Infowars HQ grinding up bones for bone broth?



I believe most of his products are manufactured by Global Healing Center in Houston, TX. A company which is run by his chiropractor buddy, Dr. Edward F. Group III.

Why exactly should that let Alex Jones off the hook? He doesn't stand by the products that bear his brand?

Here:

If the FDA daily limit for lead exposure through the diet is 6 MICRO grams.....then you will see on the following table just how easy it is to exceed the FDA limit with only one dish of seafood or even *gasp* a lowly peach.


FDA lead standards


NOW, I couldnt find the current California Standards daily limit of lead exposure through food, but what i DID find is a reference to PROP 65 which recommends a daily limit of 0.5 MICRO grams per day. Now, do a little math here, thats 12 TIMES less than the FDA standard.

LEAD IN COMMON FOODS


Until i can find what the California Standards limit is i will just say for the sake of argument that its 3 MICRO grams a day, half that of the FDA limits.

PROP 65 CALIFORNIA LEAD STANDARDS

Now, if according to this super brainy, scientifically accurate *cough* article ANTE spitballed here CAVEMAN exceeded the California standard by a whopping "over twice as much" or whatever nonsense they uttered, then guess what guys....




IT WOULD STILL MEET FDA STANDARDS FOR DAILY LEAD CONSUMPTION ALLOWANCE.

You can quit bashing Alex now and start bashing your head on the wall. Maybe it will knock some sense into some of you.

Referencing California standards is not a "tacit admission that Alex's products DO conform to California standards" — they're literally saying that they don't.


For starters lets just take "Caveman". The recommended dosage is ONE SCOOP. Now, interestingly the article doesnt even mention what the serving size is or even give any details about exactly how much the California standard is and how one is able to exceed it taking the "recommended dosage".

That's a non sequitur. Because the press release doesn't state the recommended dosage, they've made one up? They're clearly implying the dosage as recommended on the label, which you seem to be familiar with. Does it come with its own scoop?


How badly do you want to be embarrassed here when i start posting the dozens of products that contain more lead than either of these two Infowars products?


Why would I be embarrassed? I'm not peddling them to idiots on the Internet am I?


Total deception, patently false and misleading information and anyone that has more than 2 brain cells to rub together can see the blatant smear campaign talking points and lack of specificity that usually marks such worthless drivel.


The irony here is that as recently as two months ago, Infowars cited the SAME GROUP for the basis of an article, as I pointed out in another post:

Study: Nearly 40% Of Canned Goods Still Contain Gender-Bending BPA Chemical


Recently, the Center for Environmental Health tested more than 250 cans purchased at supermarkets and dollar stores for BPA in California, Idaho, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Virginia. Most of the cans were purchased at Kroger, Albertsons/Safeway, Dollar Tree and 99 Cents Only.

Nearly 40% of the containers were found to contain the chemical. And while that’s less than 2 years ago, when it was 67%, it’s not exactly a small amount. [1]


Uh-oh Infowarrior! Are you going to apply the same standard to your beloved Disinfowars? DERP.
