    Say about Alex Jones what you will, but the gay frogs segment cracked me up so much. His genuine anger, plus the simplification of frogs switching gender because of the chemicals … What a scene.

      • Hormone active (endokrine) substances are a real problem in ecology in particular in regards towaste water treatment. They often can already take effect on ng/l concentrations.

        They are not put there deliberately to turn frogs gay, but they are the result of necessary uses like hormone treatment and unecessary uses like hormonal contraception or use in cosmetics.

        I have no doubt that it was presented poorly by Jones and with ulterior motives, but endokrine substances emitted by human activities are a serious issue.

        Most of what he actually says is self-promotion, followed by racist tropes, then claiming the apocalypse is imminent. The really entertaining stuff like claiming he comes from a long line of psychics while also receiving messages from God is unfortunately rare.

      His rants are often unintentionally funny. There’s a guy on YouTube editing his conspiracy rants to look like it’s a Warhammer 40k character talking about stuff that actually exists in the lore and it matches so well it’s hilarious.
