Art Today is Thursday, April twentieth, twenty twenty three. Thank you so
much for joining me. I want to begin with the spoiler candidacy for President
of the United States of Robert Kennedy, junior son of Robert Kennedy and nephew
of JFK. Of all of the Kennedy's. We got stuck with this guy,
the anti backs, pro putin conspiracy theorist net job, who is doing
his best to ensure that Donald Trump or run de Santis either would do fine
for him. What he wants to make sure is that this country does not
have a democratic president in twenty twenty four, not because as he cares about
Blue versus Red so much, but because he is a part of this right
wing global reactionary movement. He is doing his part, and his part is
fundamentally rooted in conspiracy theory, anti VAX's messaging, in the undermining of our
stability in this nation. He is a spoiler candidate who, quite honestly,
I believe is reeling still in the aftermath of the assassination of his father,
living with that trauma, and now that trauma is made manifest because he is
carrying out at vendetta against this country, doing the bidding of Steve Bannon,
Roger Stone. The reason I can make these these statements about him, it's
because who supports him and the outcome of his goal, his agenda. According
to Fox News, he has taken Robert Kennedy gains a sizeable chunk of Biden
voters at presidential launch and this is according to a USA Today pole. They
also lump in Maryon Williamson. In this conversation shot, Democrat candidate Marion Williamson
come five percent of Biden's supporters. So let's be sure the presidential candidacy running
against Joe Biden right now is one hundred percent about weakening Joe Biden's ability to
beat Donald Trump or Rhonda Santis. And again, they don't care which one.
Robert Kennedy doesn't care who wins in the Republican side so long as one
of them wins. Why. Because the Republican Party has given itself over to
the global right wing reactionary movement. They have given themselves over to the anti
Baxters. They have the Republican Party has given themselves over to the theocratic fascist
The party is underneath complete control of the very worst factions in this country and
own this planet. And so Robert Kennedy Junior is there for no other reason.
If you have followed him through this pandemic, you would one hundred percent
understand the type of mcavalian agenda that this man has and to be searched the
support that he has. The support comes from the right in this country,
the extreme right in this country, as evidenced by yesterday when his campaign speech
announcement was not carried by Facebook, who took to Twitter to christ censorship to
cry file the right wing echo chamber, the very same right wing echo chamber
that it's doing its very best to vilify the black community, the LGBTQIA community
that's doing its best to ban the teaching of black history. That same echo
chamber was the one promoting Robert Kennedy Junior yesterday. There's a reason Steve Bannon
supports this guy. There's a reason that Roger Stone supports this guy. That's
because the one expect him to be a spoiler candidate to neutralize the Democratic Party
in order to bring victory to Donald Trump. And I want to say something
very clearly here, I don't really care about the Democratic Party because the Democratic
Party hasn't really done a whole lot for me except for not being fascist.
And I'm going to be honest with you, that's just about enough in this
late hour of this American empire, in the Year of a Lord twenty twenty
three, is we get ready to go into twenty twenty four. I said
this back in twenty twenty at the beginning of Joe Biden's campaign. I needed
a president who was not aligned with or completely a fascist, because that's what
Donald Trump is, That's what Rhonda Santist is. So much more than Donald
Trump. We have real tangible threats to democracy vying for power right now in
this moment, and the modicum of stability that we have. I say modicum
because we are far from a stable nation, but we have enough stability right
now to go in the right direction. We still have enough institutional structure,
We still have enough functioning levers of democracy for us to maintain a democracy for
many generations to come. Except for the fact that we have teetering in the
balance, waiting for an opportunity to jump into full control of this country.
A theocratic fascist movement that is flanked by anti backs know nothing, any imbecilic
movement that is also flanked by the right wing reactionaries who are genuinely gearing up
to wage holy war against anyone that is not a white Christian man or anyone
who does not capitulate to the agenda of white Christian men's That's the reality of
what's waiting in the wind. And this is what Robert Kennedy Junior is trying
to ensure comes into power, because those are the people who support him,
the right wing reactionaries, as evidenced by how many of them came out to
support him yesterday. The anti Baxer is because he is the chief. He
is the commander in chief of the anti backs movements, particularly the one that
targeted the black community. Okay, there were there were specific tactics that Robert
Kennedy Junior engaged in during COVID Night to ensure that black people would not take
COVID nineteen seriously and black people die. So let's be let's look at the
coalition of Robert Kennedy Junior, the right wing reactionaries that support him, the
anti Backs movement of which he is a top of, and of course the
theocratic fascists who don't care about any of that. They just want to bring
armageddon so that they can hasten what they believe to be the second coming of
Jesus Christ, my God. When you really put these things side by side
and you consider what's going on, and you look at how effective the conservative
machine is in using propaganda but also machinations, their technique, their their strategy,
They've actually as ignorant as they are in public, they are equally brilliant
in the background running their games. Because Robert Kennedy Junior is one of their
chess pieces. Thirteen percent that he's knocking off from Joe Biden. Put that
on top of the five percent the maryon Williamson is taking away. The only
question is whether or not they're going to insist on running third party candidates campaigns
when they lose in the primaries. But generally speaking to primary history has shown
us with Jimmy Carter, a primaried incumbent president is severely weakened going into the
general election. That's how we got Ronald Reagan forty years ago, and that's
how they're going to try to bring us a new fascist. In twenty twenty
four, speaking of theocratic fascist, who knew it was so profitable to be
a bigot? Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire, in the aftermath of being
hacked, has gone on a tirade and intentionally, I was going to say
unintentionally, but he leaked how much he makes on YouTube alone a month.
Matt Walsh, the premier theocratic fascist. It's in his bio. He's proud
to be a theocratic fascist, the lead voice trying to get LGBTQ people killed
in this country, particularly the trans community, particularly the trans community. The
guy who's bestie Michael Knows called for the eradication of transgenderism. That guy makes
one hundred thousand dollars a month on YouTube. Listen to him as he gloats
about losing that money because guess what, YouTube is not even his primary source
of revenue. You know what, he makes A Daily Wire probably dwarfs that
when you consider The Daily Wire offered Stephen Crowder, a ridiculously pathetic comedian,
so called comedian. What's up with all these really really pathetic comedians who do
so well because they spew bigotry like he and Jimmy Dore. Stephen Crowder got
offered fifty million dollars from The Daily Wire. So don't feel bad from Matt
Walsh who is now losing that one hundred thousand dollars a month from YouTube because
he violated their terms of service. He's using it as a way to build
himself more, because he's letting the world know he would much rather never get
that one hundred thousand dollars a month back from YouTube, so long as he
could stand against the tyrrity of transgenderism. Take a listen in These institutional efforts
to silence me and us have continued all the way up to this week.
So in fact, less than a day before I was hacked, we received
word from YouTube that I had committed a series of alleged violations of their terms
of service and also of their ad partnership guidelines, which will now lead to
my demonetization of potentially being banished forever from the platform. There were a number
of violations, they claimed. It only tells about three of them. All
three of them coincidentally had to do with Dylan mulvaney. I don't know,
just coincidentally, YouTube decided you're not allowed to say anything about Dylan mulvaney.
YouTube has decided that I'm not allowed to use biologically accurate language when discussing Dylan
or presumably any other trans identified person. Now, of course, there is
a way out of this jam. You know, the big Tech. They're
very generous and they'll give you a potential off ramp. So if I simply
respect the preferred pronouns, that I stop accurately gendering people, then I can
likely continue to do my cell on the platform. I can get it remonetized
after a short probationary period, and I can continue making over one hundred thousand
dollars a month on YouTube bads. One hundred thousand dollars a month on YouTube
bads. Listen. I wonder how many people realize that when we say that
billionaires pay millionaires to spread news to keep you in line, right news,
fake news, propaganda, to keep you lying, we're also talking about those
YouTubers because they are beyond millionaires, multi multi millionaires. I mean, for
Stephen Crowder, who is like, I mean, couldn't make it five seconds
on the Apollo Theater stage as a comedian to get all for fifty million dollars
from this very same company shows you the kind of money there are wash in.
They have more money than what they know to do with. And so
what are they doing. They're dropping a few crumbs. I'm going on a
little change in here. Come with me. They're dropping a few crumbs in
the black community. They've got a couple of new voices that they are promoting,
I mean diligently to try to create this appearance that black people are in
line with this right ring reactionary conservative movement. The Heritage Foundation. They've hired
a couple of black folks. You know you've got You've got quite a few
figures that are rising to the top because they have so much money to give
away. They're making so much money. I mean, who knew bigotry was
this profitable. I'm sure YouTube did, I mean YouTube notices that they're missing.
They're going to be missing. They're scared they're cut of his ad revenue.
Right, But they allowed it to go on so long because he was
so profitable, Because bigotry is profitable. To be hate filled is the easy
thing to do. There's there's no big revelation, and that there's nothing,
you know, groundbreaking about that thought. We could just look throughout history.
Hatred is always profitable because it is the one emotion that drives people beyond any
reason, any rationality, any normal thinking. It's the one anger is the
thing that gets people killed. And so if it's powerful enough to move people
into rage so that they can harm somebody, take someone's life, of course,
it's powerful enough to have them sit down in front of a computer or
in front of their mobile device and watch and consume hate field content all day
long. So in this fight that we're in, I mean, we're not
just fighting against against these individuals. We're fighting against an algorithm that absolutely understands
how profitable this hatred is. So where I mean, and I don't say
this to discourage anyone, especially not any of you who are like new YouTube
creators, content creators. I mean, you still just have to do the
work. You may never be rewarded with the financial benefits that hatred and bigotry
benefits people like Matt Walsh to the tune of one hundred thousand dollars a month
just own you tube alone. But that's why I believe we're gonna win.
It's counterintuitive. We're outgunned. We're definitely outfunded by magnitudes of order. I
mean, our reach is severely limited when you consider that someone like Tim Poole
could have sixty thousand live viewers seventy eighty thousand live viewers on YouTube. Someone
is brain dead as Tim Poole. Right, So we're outgunned, we're outnumbered,
we're out financed. How do I know we're gonna win? Because these
people really believe in their own height. I was going to say something along
the lines of the universe. Save that for the for the for the Patron's
episode, pat Patrion dot Com, for slas to bpd sh, I'll tell
you why the universe is going to assist us in this victory. But when
these people are this confident, look a look at Rhonda Santis in Florida.
He is so confident in the victories that he's gotten over the last two years
that he is now making missteps and it's very I mean, I could actually
give you a scripture reference that helps you to understand it. Most clearly,
Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit goes before the fall. Conservatism is
going to lose because it is reveling right now, so much in their victories,
in the amount of money that they can make, that they are completely
blind to the reality that they are living in their own echo chamber. Now
here's the threat. The real threat is do we have enough time and do
we have enough resources to run a left blank on these people to actually be
here long enough to survive the own slot of money that they're pouring into every
demographic to give Conservatism the appear parts of diversity, to try to appeal to
more black people, because it looks like, you know, appeal to the
masses. You see all these black people who are now working for all of
these conservative organizations who are being funded. You got the Vernon Jones of the
world. You got the Byron Donalds of the world. You have the diamonded
Silks of the world, where you know you got silk down. But you
understand what I'm saying. You have the conservative movement pouring cash, boatloads of
cash into various communities to try to give the appearance of diversity. If we
can survive that, if we can outlast that, if our various communities can
withstand the push of all of these cointel bros that are being sent into the
black communities, sent into the Muslim community, sent into the Jewish community,
all of these. Have you ever noticed every week there's a new demographically specific
character that is being promoted by conservatism to promote white supremacy. That's the threat.
Their achilles heel though, is their overconfidence, because they're a washing money.
I mean, they are Scrooge McDuck swimming through their coins with Buddy,
and that's why they're going to be blindsided by the reality that their money.
I only go so far. People can only be influenced so much because at
the end of the day, their gut instinct tells them what's really right and
what's really wrong. Go to www dot patreon dot com forward slash the BPD

back to The Benjamin Dixon Show. Visit us online at the Benjamin Dixon Show
dot com. Come back, Yeah, I want to go. I want
to go down back to Atlanta, Georgia, where we have been covering the
city protests that has been led by tree defenders, and I want to read
from our friend Kamal Franklin's Twitter timeline as well as a summary by Fox five
there in Atlanta, showing that the young men, the young individual rather who
was killed by police, Manuel Tarran, he was killed in the exact opposite
fashion than what the original police reports and news press conferences made it. See
we said this at the b very beginning. If you go back to that
episode where we discussed this, we discuss how it is that the media and
the police intentionally make it seem as though this young person tried to harm them.
Breaking news, the official autopsy is released showing that Manuel Terran, the
forest Defender, didn't have gunpowder residue on their hands and had at least fifty
seven gunshot wounds in their body, including the hands, torso, legs,
and head. Kamal Franklin said on his Twitter timeline this is murder. Hashtag
stop cop City. Now for those of you who may not be up to
date, owned Cops City. It is the eighty five acre ninety million dollars
give me to the cops in the state of Georgia and an actuality cops from
all around the country who are scheduled to come into this city that has a
halopad, that has a movie theater, that has a gun range, that
has everything that they could dream of. I'm sorry, did I say movie
theater, I mean a movie film set. They're going to be able to
film movies on this location as they are quote unquote training police officers and the
tree defenders. The forest defenders, they have been in the forest for at
least a year now, are trying to ensure that these public grounds are protected
not only from an environmental perspective, but also from the rage of the police
state. And so now, as we see, after all of the press
releases, the mayor of Atlanta black Man, along with the police chiefs,
along with the Atlantic Journal Constitute, along with all of the media outlets who
forwarded the press release from the police, the police report unchallenged, gave the
entire impression to the entire world that Tehran was the aggressor who shot at police
officers, when in reality, as the other witnesses stated, they had their
hands up. This is the autopsy is now confirming what we suspected. But
this is not the see we suspected it. Because it's par for the course.
This police state is able to get away with murder. They have mastered
the art of neutralizing outrage by making sure that every press release has the language
sufficient enough to make it seems as though the police didn't do anything wrong obviously,
but the victim, the victim has always done something wrong in every police
report. This is why you can't believe police reports when you read them.
This is why the media absolutely has to stop forwarding these pieces of propaganda.
This copaganda. Police reports are coppaganda. They should not be taken as if
they are the law, even if they are being forwarded by officers deputized by
the law. And so now we see that that just like witnesses said,
they had their hands up when they were shot by police, But that doesn't
matter, you know why, because the police understand if you can neutralize the
immediate outrage in the aftermath of whoever you killed. Ask the people of Gulfport,
Mississippi. Ask the people who are protesting on behalf of fifteen year old
Johi mcmiller, as the people who were who were who had their social media
accounts neutralized there and they had no ability to even go live to share the
protests, to share their concern. That's because the police have mastered the art
of neutralizing the outrage that comes in the aftermath of them killing one of us.
And now we see with the cop City protesters, the tree defenders Manuel
Tarran was killed, was murdered with his hands up, with their hands up,
forgive me their pronouns? Are they them? They were killed by the
police. So what's going to be done about it? Well, the police
are apparently are just going to go on like nothing happened, because they have
mastered the art of getting away with murder. And for what reason. Well,
in this particular case is so that they can have an eighty five acre,
ninety million dollar playground for them to go and pretend to be soldiers in
film movies. You guys want to see You want to see a dead body.
Take a listen to this debate quote unquote debate between Byron Donald, the
Republican from Georgia and Jamal Bowman from the representative from the state of New York,
as they discussed systematic racism and Jamal Bowman leans in on the economics of
systematic racism. Take a listener. Economic system where two of the wealthiest Americans
own more wealth than the bottom fifty percent of the country, we have levels
of economic inequality that are worse than the guilded age. To truly invest in
poverty, you have to reverse the impact of the disproportioned distribution of wealth that
happened post slavery, the Homestead Act, which gave the entire West to white
amounts, both native and far and born, that kept black people from getting
that land, those homes, and building wealth. Black banks have never been
invested in in the way that let's say the Bank of Italy was invested in
that now has become Bank of America one of our largest banks. You've had
Jim Crow, Black Laws, KKK, mass and constration. You've had globalization
where we with the race to the bottom, chasing low course label all over
the world, taking industrial jobs out of the black communities. You know what
they know what they brought back in cops and drugs and the numbers gain.
You gave us an illegal economy and cops, but never repaired the harm that
you have cause, which is why mostly gun traffickings, trafficking in the black
and brown communities, and black and brown people are killing each other with it.
So we're not talking about dealing with deitial poverty. I'm talking about reparations,
repairing the historic harm, investing in school equitably. Right now, if
you live in a wealthy community, you get more money for your school than
you live in the poor community. And the poor community is only poor because
they were red line by the United States government via the GI Bill. Come
on, now, let me address a couple of your things. So the
first thing you said is about income inequality. Listen. Of course, incomes
are not equal because everybody has different levels of talent ability. People have started
in different parts in life. We both acknowledge that I will never sit here
and say that I'm never gonna sit here and say that black people in America
started at the same place of other people in America. I'm not gonna make
that point because we both know that is not true. What is your point,
then, that the last voice was Byron Donald, Because at the core
of it there is Byron Donald is a black conservative man. There there is
a high value price tag being paid to black men who are really ready to
go out here and do the bidding of conservatism. Um asked Jason Whitlow as
Byron Donald as herschel walker, who can't be found in the state of Georgia
anymore. He's gone. He was there just long enough to run for Senate.
Nobody can. He hasn't been spotted in the state of Georgia since he
lost the bounty that is being paid for black men who will go out here
and do the bidding of conservatism and sit on television and look as stupid as
Byron Donald did. As Jamal Bowman had to educate this black man on the
reality of what happened in this country. See. One thing I'm not gonna
do is played this game, especially with black men like, if you're gonna
look me dead in the eye and say that the problem in the black community
is a result of some moral failing and black people, no, we're not
gonna. I don't personally have time. God bless you Jamal Bowman for actually
taking the time to help explain this to someone who's being paid to not understand
it. His heart convinced something, someone of something when they're paying paid to
not believe it. And this is what Byron Donald, this is what the
black men who are doing the bidding of Conservatism they're doing. It's just another
way, you know what it is. It's just another hustle. The black
men who are currently lining up to take a paycheck from Conservatism to do the
bidding a white supremacy. They're no different than the drug dealers in the black
community who just are finding a way for them to survive, are finding a
way for them to get up, finding a way for them to make a
bag. And right now, the number one way to make a bag as
a black man in this country is to go out here and do the bidding
of Conservatism. That's it. So I see no difference between the poison that
is being spewed by black men who are being paid to go around the country
and to attack the moral integrity, to suggest that there's some kind of moral
failing. His Byron Donald's first response to income inequality in that clip was to
say that the reason income inequality exists because there's a difference in income of skills.
Are are we being serious now when we see that the absolute most brain
dead, mind numbingly stupid Neanderthals are fomenting to the top of whiteness. And
you want to turn around and say black folks ain't working hard enough. Our
skills suggest that our skills of the reason there's income inequality versus the lettany of
things that Jamal Bowman just wrote that just read him for filth with that's because
well you know again, it pays good money to be willing to tuck your
blackness in and to sit up there and look like a complete Vernon Jones.
That's what he looks like, a complete moron like Vernon Jones out of the
State of Georgia who sold his soul for a paycheck. I get it,
brothers, it's hard out in these streets. I mean, if I had
less integrity, I'd probably go take a conservative check myself, because y'all are
making a hundred thousand dollars a month on YouTube being bigoted. I mean,
if I didn't have integrity, I probably could be a billionaire just off of
conservative griff. But my soul is worth a lot more than thirty pieces of
filthy silver. My blackness is worth a whole lot more my integrity and my
appeal for justice, my desire for justice. If we got to go through
a couple of broke days in order to get justice, that's quite okay with
me. But for some people, they just can't fathom being broken this economy
when they can go out and get a fat check from the Heritage Foundation.
Isn't that right, Delano? And I get it. I get it.
If if you're looking for you know, I guess when in Rome, do
as the Romans, right, when you're in the American Empire, do as
the American imperialist due, which is, pay no attention to how you get
your wealth, paying no attention to the genocide that you had to do to
create this country and to create the wealth, paying no attention to the slavery
that was necessary for you to create this wealth, Pay no attention to the
amount of your soul that you have to sell to get that check. Black
men for Conservatives patrons, stay tuned, everyone else will see them all.
