"Off putting"? The guy goes through one a hell of a day of totally high-stakes legal combat and comes out of it...probably nerves shot, but still able to speak coherently, and you think that's "off putting"? Just amazing.
Emotional stress can definitely affect tics. If the body's adrenaline is high, then muscle reflexes can be exaggerated. So, if you came across an auto accident and a victim is gory and bleeding, you could find that "off putting"? It would only mean that you have no compassion and are unwilling to cut some slack for the absence of a beautiful appearance.
By the way, I was commenting ONLY on your reaction to his appearance. My late spouse had a congenital birth defect in which her right hand was no more than a paw. It was traumatic growing up with that. She had to learn how to do anything dextrous (like writing) with her left hand. Adults were decent enough not to mention it in public. I can only imagine you would find that "off putting."
Actually, that just reminded me.
I was training a team. And this one teammate (it turned out t get had a genetic defect which lead to this) broke their leg.
A few if us turned around and saw the bottom of their leg (a little above the ankle down) dangling limp and facing the wrong way.
It was grotesque and off putting.
But did I stand there and point 'eww nanny nanny pooo pooo you looked off putting" ?
No, I sprinted into action to get them help.
Did I treat them with dignity and care? Yes.
Your can make an observation, have a feeling from that observation, and yet push through to be compassionate/help/love etc.
That is conflating 2 very...actually 3 very different situations.
And making a false equivocation.
Yes, one can come across a mangled person from a car accident and find it off putting
at the same time you can have compassion for that person
They AREN'T THE SAME THING
In your logic means seeing and saying a truth negates the possibility of cutting slack or giving compassion. Bullshit. In the army you see all types of grotesque shit and still love your fellow soldier and further, have the honesty to joke about it later among one another (with the injured soldier and buddies).
Someone born with a birth defect could be off putting and that person can still be loved by the same person. Hell, the smell of a dirty diaper is off putting - that doesn't mean you don't love your baby.
Stop making this bigger than it is. Stop making it about you. And stop virtue signaling.
Eye blinking is frequently one method of the nervous system to 'reset' in order to maintain a self-imposed deception. i.e. to tell untruths or pretend, but to 'self believe' the untruths so that they come across as true, and one essentially reimposes the lie over the mind that knows they are lies.
Not saying this is the case here, but it is certainly a thing.
Being over-the-top is another method of burying the reality but being too loud and too noisy. Like shining a super powerful flashlight on the page of a book so that the actual text on the page is barely visible, because the ambient light overpowers the light being reflected by the page itself, which is what allows it to be read.
When you know these things, the performance becomes transparent.
Personally, I think Jones may have been flipped during or after the Q operation. Flipped from Controlled oppo to become a controlled asset.
Very much so. He doesn’t really look like himself, but I’m not gonna say he’s wearing a mask. But if he was… You might blink a lot if it wasn’t comfortable. I don’t know. The whole thing is just SUS
ALSO - how come when I use an emoji here it changes it to a different one?
I gotta say the man has lost 30+ pounds the past couple months. As for the eye blinking… I take it nobody here has been in front of studio lighting for 10+ hours plus lack of sleep. Eyes are the first thing that dries out and blinking is nearly uncontrollable and unbearable. Poor guy was broadcasting nearly continuously all day. Notice in this video the lighting was dimmed? Eyes are probably burned out.
Naa, it looks to me like he has not had much sleep and has dry eyes, and has probably drunk tons of coffee and his voice does sound a bit dehydrated. He looks like he is super tired to me but still able to function at a high level.

Oh, FractalizingIron, despite your true and factual information it looks like (sung in the fashion of MJ's Smooth Criminal):
"You've been stuck by...
You've been stuck by...
A Down Tooter"
This column is being haunted by a rapid down tooter who seems to be obsessed with defending the honor Alex Jones- peace be upon him.
:D
Peace indeed! And blessings!
You know...I kind of had a flicker of that thought during J6 when I saw him on the mega phone whipping up the crowd...
Very much so. He doesn’t really look like himself, but I’m not gonna say he’s wearing a mask. But if he was… You might blink a lot if it wasn’t comfortable. I don’t know. The whole thing is just SUS

Interesting. I usually notice more stiffness around the mouth in a mask/latex face, but you're right.
...he does seem off.
I think my thought of that was drugs...but that might be too obvious of a suspicion.
But something is sus, fo'sho.
Definitely could be drugs. Would not be shocked if he was on some type of amphetamine.
