It has morphed into a rallying point for the angry, the disenfranchised, the paranoid. A loose community with a literature you can add to and new friends to share your outraged indignation of the the rich and powerful. A politics with no real goal, just the common belief that the US is a monolithic monster capable of any and all evil.
Jones had a PHD some credibility as a physics professor. Importantly he introduced a new magic word - 'thermite.' So now you can throw that word around and impress disbelievers. The fact that any form of thermite would not really work as an explosive in a controlled demolition, and that Jones had done his tests on ordinary paint, were not issues.
So he has gone from being an obscure dismissed prof to a heroic champion of Truth and Justice, with a noble cause. Somewhere along the way there are a few bucks in it for him, I'd imagine.

Jones did not come in the "truth movement" as it was declining. He appeared in the "truth movement" with his "controlled demolition - a hypothesis to be tested" after Dr Judy Wood already offered scientific PROOF that the government's version of events is false:

The Popular Mechanics article was for the sole purpose of debunking PROPAGANDA. They did not debunk the PROOF as offered by Dr Judy Wood.
Jones sole purpose in the "truth movement" is to distract people from the PROOF that already exists.
And since the media is completely controlled, they publish story's about Jones' "hypothesis" instead of Wood's PROOF.
