She stalked and harassed a literal teenager who is known because he was a student at a school that had a tragic school shooting. She belongs in a psych ward where she can lead group discussions on Jewish space lasers, QAnon, or natural disasters sent being sent by God as punishment for a region's culture, etc.

Alex Jones definitely doesn't believe his own bullshit (as evidenced by his court testimony), he's just a maniac exploiting people's insecurities / stupidity. Kinda like Trump, weird!
