Honestly I have no idea if he’s acting or not. Usually I’d say you should never credit anyone with the willpower to stay in character all day and night. But Jones doesn’t, he’s claimed in court to be a performance artist; and also I think he’s being paid a lot of money to do this stuff.
Obviously there is some spectrum here and he’s a crazy idiot either way. I just don’t know whether he regards himself as a con man suckering his fans out of their money or regards himself as a teller of truth. (Can it be both?!?)
