Alex Jones Says Democrats Are Planning a July Fourth Second Civil War - Twitter Quickly Responds
#lettersfromthesecondcivilwar has been taking over Twitter
Alex Jones, the host of the right-wing, conspiracy theory internet show, "InfoWars," predicted that the Democrats were planning on starting a "Second Civil War" on July 4th, America’s Independence Day.
Jones is known for his frantic, hyperactive delivery of speeches, and wild conspiracy theories. Some of these theories include the one where 9/11 is a government operation, that Michelle Obama is really a man, and the one where the Pentagon has a bomb that’s “turning the frigging frogs gay.” Jones often calls for violence and threatens violence on his show.
He also has a very big fan in U.S. President Donald Trump, who did a skype interview with him during his presidential campaign. He told Jones: “You have a great reputation. I will not let you down.”

Naturally, left-leaning Twitter users responded in kind to Jones’ newest antics – with humor. Starting the trending hashtag #secondcivilwarletters, they write 140 character letters in the style of the 18th century war letters written home.
My dearest life partner,

I fear by the time this reaches you, I will be dead. The MAGA brigade advances from the West while the Chads push from the South. Tell our non binary cats I love them.

Good news! Our scouts believe they have found Hillary's emails. They were hidden inside a copy.of President Trump's tax plan. If only Congress had read it, we could have prevented this tragedy. Perhaps this will all be over soon. #lettersfromthesecondcivilwar

The war is not doing so well. After the massacre at Bowling Green, the MAGA's have pushed us back and I fear a 2nd Battle of Covfefe.
Supplies running low. Send low-fat double latte & gluten free biscotti.
Your loving husband.

I’ve been reassigned as support staff to the Glitter Bomb Squad. I make certain the kombucha is ice cold and the brownies are gluten-free. We’re close enough to the front that we stopped wearing our MAGA hats ironically. #lettersfromthesecondcivilwar
Dear kin folk,

Encouraging news from Florida. We are closing in on the enemy's southern headquarters. In retreat, the Red Hat general puts on a brave front to his troops, but from our pov we know better. War is hell.#lettersfromthesecondcivilwar pic.twitter.com/EjIpJZRQU7

Engaged the Red Hats today. Confronted them with the genealogy logs you provided, showing each one of them descended from immigrants from a foreign land.
The MAGA hats did not prevent their heads from exploding.
Grisly.
