00:01:45.000And I actually grew up watching Alex Jones, listening to his podcast.
00:01:49.000Back when I was a wagee and I was working in a warehouse, I would turn on the Alex Jones show for three hours and it would help me get through the day.
00:01:57.000So it's sort of like when Kanye West met Jay Z, is how I would compare it, seeing Alex Jones tonight.
00:03:47.000I think there's maybe a few other things out there.
00:03:50.000I'm banned from CPAC, so you can rest assured that I have a lot of credentials when it comes to being a dissident.
00:03:56.000I think it was said earlier, you only get attacked, you only get censored or banned when you're saying the right things and when you're actually a good person.
00:04:50.000And what can be said that hasn't already been said about censorship?
00:04:54.000That it's wrong, it's against free speech, that we can't just go and create our own Twitter, we can't go and create our own YouTube.
00:05:01.000There has been so much said about this, but I think a contribution.
00:05:05.000To the conversation that I can make, which is relevant to what I've been up to lately with the Groyper Wars and Charlie Kirk, is a little bit of a new angle here.
00:05:42.000But it's actually the right, too, that is in favor of censorship when you're looking at the establishment, when you're looking at the mainstream.
00:05:50.000And I like to think about the left back in like the 1960s or the 1970s.
00:05:54.000We know that at one point in time, the left was in favor of free speech.
00:06:00.000We remember during the anti war Vietnam protests, we remember that Berkeley was supposedly the birthplace of free speech on the college campus.
00:06:09.000And now they've turned against free speech.
00:06:14.000Because free speech is a tool that benefits dissidents.
00:06:19.000Now that the left is in power, they have no need for free speech.
00:06:23.000Free speech is the means through which dissidents challenge their institutional power in the establishment.
00:06:29.000They were outside of power and they supported free speech.
00:06:32.000Now they are inside in power and they are against free speech.
00:06:36.000And a similar thing actually has happened on the right.
00:06:40.000I remember when I was in high school and I got into the conservative movement, I regret to say, That I was a big fan of Ben Shapiro, Prager University.
00:06:53.000I was a big fan of all those characters, and they were in favor of free speech.
00:06:58.000I remember they were fighting on the front lines, fighting against Antifa, fighting against protesters, disruption, and so on.
00:07:05.000And we've seen something very curious happen, which is that since Trump got elected, and since conservatives have built up their institutional support, Daily Wire, for example, got a little bit of support from billionaires known as the Wilts brothers.
00:07:19.000And Charlie Kirk got a $10 million check from Foster Freeze.
00:07:23.000Now that they have money, now that they have, in other words, institutional power, suddenly all these establishment conservatives don't really have a need for free speech.
00:07:34.000Well, there's a very fine line between the conservatives that we see today, like Alex Jones, like Gavin, like myself, who have been censored, and all the conservatives that you see readily able to use YouTube, Twitter, and they're on Fox News.
00:07:49.000I've compiled actually some examples, some hypocrisies that you see which are unexplainable if you're only thinking about censorship in the paradigm of it's a left versus right issue.
00:08:00.000The New York Times on November 23rd, 2017, called Ben Shapiro a controversial gladiator in the battle of ideas.
00:08:12.000Now, I think gladiators are supposed to be tall.
00:08:33.000But, to borrow a phrase, I have to give credit for that one.
00:08:39.000But yet, the New York Times, which is, we know, anti-white, globalist, liberal, the epitome of fake news, they heap praise upon Ben Shapiro.
00:08:51.000And they say that he is a celebrated gladiator in the conservative battle of ideas.
00:10:09.000CPAC last year was sponsored by Google.
00:10:14.000Shouldn't that be a red flag to anybody?
00:10:18.000All these people that get on the stage and talk about the censorship of conservatives on the college campus, the censorship of conservatives on YouTube, even Breitbart, you know, we all heard the clip after the 2016 election when the Google employees said, We're never going to let a Donald Trump election happen again.
00:10:35.000Well, then, why is Google sponsoring CPAC, the event where Trump speaks at?
00:10:40.000Why were the Heritage Foundation, the American Enterprise Institute, and the Cato Institute present at a Google lobbying conference last month?
00:10:51.000I also think about even this administration.
00:11:19.000Ben Garrison, who is a great cartoonist, yes?
00:11:25.000Ben Garrison, who has been censored, was invited to the Social Media Censorship Summit where he was apparently supposed to fight against the censorship that he's been a victim of, but he was disinvited.
00:11:40.000A person by the name of Sheldon Adelson, billionaire funder of the Trump campaign, picked up the red phone to the White House and he said, I don't like the way Sheldon Adelson talks about George Soros.
00:11:53.000I don't like, or rather, Ben Garrison.
00:11:55.000I don't like the way Ben Garrison talks about George Soros.
00:11:58.000I don't like the way that he talks about all these billionaires.
00:12:01.000It comes across as hateful, anti Semitic, something like that.
00:12:04.000So they promptly disinvited Ben Garrison from the social media summit.
00:12:08.000And what do we see in every single one of these examples?
00:12:10.000Whether it's the New York Times, Praising Ben Shapiro, the Atlantic retracting their headline and issuing apologies, the White House censoring somebody on their social media censorship.
00:12:22.000What do we see when Google is sponsoring CPAC and the Heritage and AEI and Cato are at the Google conference?
00:12:29.000It's the same thing that happened to the left.
00:12:32.000All these right wing people that say they're against censorship, they're in favor of free speech, that worked 10 years ago when they didn't have this institutional power.
00:12:40.000But now that they've got the money and they've got the think tanks and they've got the NGOs and all that institutional power on their side, free speech is no longer convenient for them.
00:12:51.000Now that they are in positions of power, They do not like the free speech that we are offering up as true conservatives.
00:12:59.000And Nick, you're knocking it out of the park here.
00:13:22.000And no matter what they do, they can't suppress you.
00:13:26.000Because I get on air and I talk about America and freedom and fighting radical Islam and I see the headlines, Nazi Alex Jones, because that's all the left's got is to say somebody trying to promote freedom is a Nazi when the Nazis are a bunch of losers 70-something years ago got their ass kicked.
00:13:49.000And so they just keep saying, though, you're a Nazi, you're a Nazi, you're a Nazi.
00:13:53.000I'm like, no, I'm an American, I'm a capitalist, I'm a freedom lover, and I'm not going to bow down to you.
00:14:00.000And so I think that's why we can talk about it all day, Nick Fuentes, how they do this, but no one buys it anymore.
00:15:19.000What they want us to do for the next 50 years is to relitigate the Cold War and fight this argument America versus socialism.
00:15:28.000They want control of the dialectic, of the conversation between the two poles the right as defined by hamburgers, capitalism, and on the other side, socialism.
00:18:19.000And so going back to CPAC, it is about controlling that conversation.
00:18:23.000They do not want free speech to allow other ideas, particularly in the right wing space, to enter in and challenge the definition of conservatism.
00:18:31.000Why is it, as an example, that CPAC claims that the theme for this year is America versus socialism?
00:18:39.000It is because targeting socialism and the Trump administration railing against Venezuela and socialism and socialism sucks is because this is a pretext to defend the interests of the capitalist class, of the firm holders, the elites, the billionaires.
00:18:57.000We are talking about the Koch brothers.
00:19:10.000We are talking about huge titans of industry who are working against the interests of the American people.
00:19:16.000Why do they say they're against socialism?
00:19:18.000Because they are funded by these huge billionaires and elites.
00:19:21.000And when they say they're against socialism, that means open borders for immigration, that means free trade, that means all kinds of loopholes and other things for the big people, for the billionaires, for the people that are making their money.
00:19:35.000Off of investments rather than income.
00:19:37.000That is why they choose to define it in that way.
00:19:40.000They do not want real conservatives to go into CPAC and make it about America first.
00:19:45.000They don't want to make it about make America great again and halt the mass immigration, not just the illegal immigration, but the legal immigration.
00:19:52.000And they don't want us to do that because, again, the people that are putting up the money for their thing, putting up the money for their conference, are benefiting from their open borders agenda.
00:20:50.000It tells you about the system that Ben Shapiro is a part of the system and we are not.
00:20:56.000That is why he is celebrated and we are on the outside.
00:20:59.000He is saying things that are benefiting the elite and not the people and we are the reverse.
00:21:03.000And so, in conclusion, you said 30 minutes.
00:21:06.000I didn't realize we were so pressed here.
00:21:09.000In conclusion, I'm probably going over, but I wanted to make one last important point to keep in mind for everybody.
00:21:15.000So, I want to say one last thing thesis statement.
00:21:19.000We as conservatives who are in favor of America first, whatever our differences, We will either hang together or we will most surely hang separately.
