THE CONFEDERATE GENE

Self-procalimed leader of 'the resistance', Alex Jones, must disclose the relationship between his family and The Confederate States of America.

How do we know that that desire to protect slavery that drove his ancestors to become Generals in The Confederate Army is not now present in his blood via some kind of Confederate gene?

To become a General in The Confederate Army meant that you really believed in that war. And, as all ordinances of secession clearly state that the Confederate states seceded to protect the institution of slavery, we can assume that Jones' ancestors believed in slavery. And it is that kind of sentiment that is passed down from Confederate generation to Confederate generation.

Did Jones' ancestors own slaves?

Or were they involved in the slave trade in some way?

I have a book entitled The Slave Trade by Hugh Thomas, in which Thomas states that Texas was crucial to the slave trade. Texas was originally part of Mexico, which banned slavery in 1829. But Texans broke from Mexico to form their own republic so that they could legalise slavery in Texas!

This explains why the Texas ordinance of secession is one of the most disgusting examples of white supremacy.

This neo-Confederacy (or is it just laziness) of Jones, who allows his guests to spew all sorts of pro-Confederate bullshit, has got me very, very concerned.

And there is some kind of symmetry in the following: that Jones, whose ancestors were colonels and generals in the Confederate Army, is pushing Donald Trump, who has appointed as his foreign policy and national security advisor a man whose full name is Jefferson Beauregard Sessions, who is named after Jefferson Davis, The President of The Confederate States of America, and Confederate General Beauregard, who fired the first shot on Fort Sumter which really kicked off the US Civil War.

So, is there a Confederate gene?
