Maybe he&amp;#x27;s right about something else.&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;IMO the problem is that it was ridiculed when he said it. Now he can look back and post a link to an NPR article stating that human-monkey chimera embryos have been created.&lt;p&gt;I make this comment only because a friend of mine sent me the NPR article [0] with a note saying &amp;quot;man maybe Alex Jones is right about a lot of stuff, lol.&amp;quot; I don&amp;#x27;t know how common this sentiment is, but it&amp;#x27;s another talking point lodged in Jones&amp;#x27;s favor (to the detriment of all of us).&lt;p&gt;[0]: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.npr.org&amp;#x2F;sections&amp;#x2F;health-shots&amp;#x2F;2021&amp;#x2F;04&amp;#x2F;15&amp;#x2F;987164563&amp;#x2F;scientists-create-early-embryos-that-are-part-human-part-monkey&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.npr.org&amp;#x2F;sections&amp;#x2F;health-shots&amp;#x2F;2021&amp;#x2F;04&amp;#x2F;15&amp;#x2F;9871645...&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>

Let it out in the open where rational people can see for themselves how crazy he is and make up their own minds.&lt;p&gt;I really hate this whole cancel culture thing, I don&amp;#x27;t even wish it on the Alex Joneses of the world.</text></comment>
