Alex Jones no longer has any staunch positions except for "no gun control." He'd talk himself into supporting anything else the next fascist decides to do.

I'm not super well versed in current right wing psychology but I think it's because those types consider themselves paleoconservatives, especially the ones who lean into pseudo-intellectualism. They at least use the name as a dogwhistle for fascism, I remember in one of the subreddits that got banned with chapo they were openly discussing how as fascists they could tell other people they were paleoconservatives as a cover. I guess once you buy into that identity you somehow end up being anti war, to own the (((neocons))).
