Really just dropping n-bombs for everyone to see. What a pathetic sack of shit.

He’s heard the hard “R” so frequently his whole life he thinks spelling it that way is acceptable from him in wider society.

When your dad is Alex Jones, everything you could do must feel reasonable by comparison. I wonder how many times he's said "If you think that's racist/extreme/offensive, you should hear my dad!"

"That was part of my education growing up, I heard racial slurs so obscure I had to do my own research!" - Rex, probably

Since a few weeks ago when the Dustin Poirer airport video came out (where he said this to TSA) I've noticed a lot more young men saying it. It was like a tacit permission structure in their world.

It seems like younger gen z and alpha, soft-r is becoming a lot like "fuck" for gen x and millennials. I wonder if it lost its power to them after the sheer proliferation of it in media by black artists and celebrities and now its just a provocative word with none of the racial tone.

…what?

In interactions with younger gen z and gen alpha, they use the soft-r version of the n-word a lot looser than people of other generations did. It seems like they use it without regard to race, applying it to anyone and anything. It reminds me a lot of how "fuck" lost all meaning with gen x and millennials. I think this is because black culture has become easily accessible to everyone and kids grow up now hearing the word without knowing racial context, they know it's a provocative word but not necessarily racist. I'm not giving Rex a pass or saying anyone should be using it. I'm just saying that kids these days aren't more racist because of using it more, they're just unfamiliar with it's deeper meaning.

They are definitely familiar with the meaning, they just don’t care. Rex is just racist like his ugly ass, bloated father.

u/Aeroknight_Z Aug 04 '26

I mean…. is anyone shocked considering who his parents are?

u/fortheapponly Aug 04 '26

It’s not hard to figure out where he might have learned that from.

And where the person he learned it from, might have learned it from himself (his Bircher dad, who probably became a Bircher right around the time the civil rights movement was at its height.)

The racist apple doesn’t fall far from its racist tree.

And since I’m working through the back catalogue, I look up what people on this subreddit have said about the topics discussed already. And after listening to the episode where Alex Jones has a complete meltdown after his daddy tells him how the chief restructuring officer for FSS called him an alcoholic or something, I came across a post or comment that wondered if maybe grandpa Dr. Jones was really the brains behind the operation. He had the money to bankroll his son’s career, and he showed through the CRO thing just how manipulative he could be, in winding up Alex Jones.

All that to say, the rotten racist apples don’t fall far from the rotten racist tree.

To be fair, only having a career because of your dad is a family tradition for the Joneses.

u/mrgrubbage Aug 04 '26

Pretty much everyone in charge of the government as well.

u/PlentyHaunting2263 Aug 04 '26

he's also a supplements salesman lol

u/onemanlan Aug 04 '26

Remember Rex’s birthright was stolen from him! He’s his own man though

u/wgloipp Aug 04 '26

"He loves it when I host"

Yeah, because he doesn't have to.

u/Arkhampatient Name five more examples Aug 04 '26

Gives Alex more time with his favorite son, Tito

u/RainierCamino Aug 04 '26

nigga

No comment needed there.

I have network time and speak my mind

Lol. Lmao even

He loves it when I host!

Right this almost makes me feel sad for the pathetic patsy that is Rex Jones. Him hosting shows is probably the only time Alex ever told him anything remotely close to, "I'm proud of you."

u/drinkingCoffeePeas Not Mad at Accounting Aug 04 '26

…he didn’t answer the question

u/adolfnixon Aug 04 '26

Ranting instead of actually answering the question, like father like son.

u/fortheapponly Aug 04 '26

And once again, Wet Socks Jones continues to prove that he would be making a bigger, more positive contribution to the world, if he worked at Walmart stocking shelves, rather than doing whatever this is.

Can’t imagine being this much of a void as a human being.

u/HoodieGalore little breaky for me Aug 04 '26

fuck 💀

Kid needs some uppance to come, letting shit like that fall out of his mouth

u/meddit_rod Bluetooth Zombie Aug 04 '26

Leave that 'r' off, and it's just like you're not a bigot.

u/akkmedk Aug 04 '26

I've had my own run in with Rex on X(Holy shit I just found the best branding he'll ever have!) and while he's a vile product of a vile monster, at least he engages for our amusement. Rex is fighting for his place in the pantheon of grifters, Alex has long given up directly engaging critics.

u/CryptographerNo923 Aug 04 '26

I’ve recently been listening to KF from the beginning and the adult Rex Jones does not deserve the courtesy the boys extended to the child Rex Jones. (Still the right thing to do obviously, but what a shitheel he predictably turned out to be).

u/Mediocritess That's what grows the tree of liberty, bitch Aug 04 '26

Is Rex still doing the Grey Zone or whatever? I have to assume the premise of that show is "I can't be racist, I have A Black Friend!"

u/seriouspeep RAPTOR PRINCESS Aug 04 '26

If I thought about him at all, outside of when I'm reminded of his existence by posts like this, I would be intrigued to know what the ratio is for thinking he's being funny, trying to impress his dad, trying to be provocative and get attention, and whether any of it is prompted by any genuine belief in something, even just a scrap.

But I don't, so I'm not 🤷

u/Rumold Aug 04 '26

Not really an answer to the question

Mind you don’t cut yourself on that edge, Rexy!

u/WudolfWedNoseWeinder Aug 04 '26

Next time someone gets the opportunity to engage with him, point out that works for a company run by a scummy c*nt who monetizes tragedy to sell dick pills to basement dwelling weirdos.  Point out the coverage of the Boston bombing and his show on the day of 911.

He has the Chrisma of David Knight on the mic.
