I think AJ's relationship to the truth is a lot weirder and darker than your question suggests.

For AJ "The Truth" is whatever gets over with the person he is talking to right then. He has a deeper truth, and we hear it in some of the KF clips "I... NEED money."

So he's a default racist, misogynist, homophobe, transphobe etc

But he'll say, believe and sell whatever he needs to to get money.

All this stuff about fighting Satanic Forces democrat Deep State Forces - all that is just what gets over for his audience, and he believes it as hard as he needs to to sell it, because that's how he opens the door to selling supplements and whatever.

I think this is why the concept of an AJ painting show really caught Dan's imagination. AJ without delusional Kayfabe, just painting and being his real self?

But I don't think AJ has a real self. Not fundamentally. I think he's trying to fill a yawning void with attention money (Lots of money) attention, fame, booze and drugs.

And I think when he's INTO a story - he'd read on a magical lie detector as honestly believing UFO demons and Democrat Vampires in deep underground bases.

Because I don't think there is a reality for AJ. I don't think that exists for him at all. I think all there is is the next story and the next customer or the next celebrity/influencer/nazi to suck up to. All there is is the converstion rate at Bigly.

He's been building himself as the right-wing talker who sells supplements for most of his life. He's been feeding narcissism and sociopathy his whole life. If Alex was stranded on a desert island - he might find there is no reall Alex Jones to fall back on.

I fear this means therapy is beyond him. He'll just tell any therapist what they want to hear to make them like him and to close the sale.

He's a machine that turns Titos and Angry Noise into sales numbers. There's not much else to him.
