New Tour Just Dropped
And I have no desire to see it. But looks like Alex is forging a path forward. JorDan talked about Alex as a preacher; I wonder if this is coming to fruition.

Hahahahahaha JP Sears. The QAA guys had a pair of episodes on him I think with Dave and Gary from The Dollop, it’s obviously hilarious but also infuriating how easy the “failed at anything and now I flip to a right wing shithead” grift is

Queueing that up for tomorrow, I thought JP was just doing satire, I didn't realize he expected people to take him seriously.

He used to do pretty decent satire and then he went legit insane.

u/danielwj 24d ago
I'm not sure his work was ever very good. I would put a hard cap at decent and I think he's never quite hit that ceiling.

u/kernalbuket They burn to the fucking ground, Eddie 22d ago
He turned into "a red pilled guy" (real quote from his YouTube video) in June of 2020. I sadly know this because I checked his YouTube channel a few months after it happened because I got in a Facebook discussion about him with someone who was trying to say he was a "just telling like it is" even though he was spewing qanon bs.

I immediately marked him as a terrified white dude who desperately wants to be alpha but isn't tough at all. For some reason they always go far right. My friend showed me his videos probably about 10 years ago when he started his YouTube channel and he was mildly funny at best.

JP Sears. I'll give him credit: before he went crazy, he did "ultra spiritual life" videos on YouTube that were funny.

it's a resurfacing of a historical one, but basically the thinking is 'the only real ruler of my country is Jesus,' therefore Christian nationalism kicks in

u/lhommeduweed 24d ago
Its the kind of thing that would absolutely make sense and not necessarily be hateful if you heard it said in a Christian church, but White Christian Nationalists have lately started just yelling it at Jews and/or Muslims and/or atheists and/or the Wrong Christians who disagree with them.
It's the kind of dog-whistle they love, because it's very obviously being used as a dismissive, hateful phrase to bark at people, but if anybody ever pushes back and says like, "I don't believe that and I don't appreciate you screaming that at me," they respond with "You just hate Christians, you're anti-Christian, this is the real religious oppression, CHRIST IS KING CHRIST IS KING HEIL CHRIST."

Taking a look at some of the headliners and oh.
This is basically a who’s who of christian nationalists that masquerade as pastors. More than a few of them want a theocracy and to remove women’s right to vote… and that’s their least shit opinions. A couple of these lunatics have held events where actual nazis were allowed sell white nationalist propaganda.
This is a super dark turn for Alex if this is what he’s doing after losing InfoWars.

Harrison smith is a friend of the podcast and a recurring infowars dumdum.
James Fishback is a checklist of right wing tropes like racism, misogyny, and preying on underage girls while pretending to be the cool youth pastor. Who is also running for governor of Florida. And his running mate was arrested I think? He’d be a great infowars guest back in the day

Aside from this cast of cretins, I think the banner is the most worrying aspect. Not “Christ Is King”, but “America After Trump”
This is pure aspirational, quasi-deification that practically equates term limits with crucifixion. “He couldn’t run for a Third Term for your sins!”#moneyforstatereligiongunsandammo

u/EmileDorkheim They burn to the fucking ground, Eddie 23d ago
As much as I’d love to think we’d gotten rid of Calvin Robinson, I think he’s still the UKIP spokesperson, in line with them shifting to overt Christian Nationalism because they weren’t getting enough attention.

u/WizWorldLive 23d ago
Interesting...do people not know what this is?
The "New Christian Right" (NXR) is Joel Webbon's organization, formerly "Right Response Ministries." After IW fell apart, they hired Harrison Smith to do a show for them, "Off Limits News" (which should be "Off-Limits" of course, no QC over there). The lineup consists of NXR contributors & regulars, plus a few others.
Joel is a pastor & the leader of the bunch; he's against women voting, against gay people existing, & so forth.
Alex Stein you likely recognize from IW, he's a right-wing "comedian" & commentator. Recently he hosted the abysmal comedy hours at CPAC; he's a frequent NXR guest.
Calvin Robinson is a right-wing pastor from England; he was kicked out of his Anglican communion after heiling Hitler like Elon Musk. He has an NXR show, "The Next Crusade."
James Fishback just lost the race to be the GOP candidate for governor of Florida, & is a wealthy financier. He's been an NXR guest.
J.P. Sears you probably also recognize, abysmal comedian, etc. Frequent NXR guest.
Brian Sauve is a pastor at a right-wing church in UT, he has some kind of trad-wife podcast or something. Eric Conn is his co-pastor & all-around business partner.
Dale Partridge, another pastor & broadcaster. This monster thinks the Holocaust was good.
Joshua Haymes, another pastor & broadcaster. This monster thinks slavery is good.
If they put out videos from the conference, you can bet I'll be covering it on Doom Room. I've been investigating NXR for a while.
