    Sound very much like the communists that moved to Soviet Union 100 years ago to build a utopia. They went and got purged by Stalin. Now it’s the turn for far-right wingnuts with another former petty criminal in charge of Russia.

      Sounds like the exact opposite. Alex Jones is many things, but he’s not a brash young revolutionary looking to rebuild the industrial base of the country with his own two hands. Dude is looking over there because he wants to haunt the strip clubs and cigar joints, while getting shit-faced on raw milk and vodka.
