So Alex Jones was wrong. The frogs are turning gay because the females keep playing dead.

I think you only need the first 5 words.

If I remember correctly in this particular case Alex Jones was right - which is a very very weird thing to write to be honest.

Here is a deep dive by Oki's weird stories

and his Interview with Tyrone Hayes

I despise Alex Jones He is a sad fart of a human being and I hate that it seems in his career of obscene, hurtful and dumb conspiracy shit there is one thing that he got actually right. Apes on a typewriter.

He was kinda right. IIRC there was a study done that found that fluoride may have caused a slight increase in estrogen levels in male frogs, but I don't think it was significant enough to effect their behavior

You're right I should have said there is only a small amount of truth in his comment. I remember watching oki's deep dive and the beginning kinda stuck in my head where he himself said that he doesn't like the fact alex jones was correct on something
