On today's show, we discuss the dangers of sending missiles to Ukraine, the hypocrisy surrounding the West's dealings with Saudi Arabia, and Joe Biden's latest blunder. We also look at Donald Trump's latest NFT scheme, and look at why he shouldn't care if other people think he's better than them. And we have a special guest on the show, Canadian trucker Benjamin Dicta, who has a very interesting take on the idea that Trump is better than George Washington and Abraham Lincoln... and why that's a good thing.

00:01:26.000Thanks for joining us on this voyage to truth and freedom.
00:01:29.000We are the alternative to the mainstream media narratives that will delude you with deceit and treachery.
00:01:36.000On today's show, we're going to be talking about the potentially dangerous consequences of sending Patriot missiles to Ukraine.
00:01:41.000I believe Russia have said it will be unpredictable consequences, even to them.
00:01:46.000They can't predict what they're going to do or what they're going to feel.
00:01:48.000We're going to be talking to you about the hypocrisy around how the West deals with Saudi Arabia compared to Russia.
00:01:53.000In particular, how Russia is selling their oil to Saudi Arabia and we are buying oil from Saudi Arabia.
00:02:00.000It's not even that many links in the chain.
00:02:03.000We're also going to be checking out Donald Trump's latest NFT scheme and look at Joe Biden's most recent fumbling.
00:02:11.000If you're watching us on YouTube, you can watch us here for 10 minutes.
00:02:14.000Then we're going to ask you to come over to Rumble where I can be Uncensored, unexpurgated, where I can convey the limitless truth that is accessible to all of us.
00:02:24.000Not that I'm claiming that I have any more access to truth than anybody else, but what I won't do is deliberately lie in order to prop up establishment interest.
00:02:33.000That I will not We're going to look at how the United States are looking to make a fortune for years to come from a new bomber that, to me, doesn't look that reliable.
00:02:44.000We'll be showing you that bomber in a little bit.
00:02:46.000And our guest today, joining us from the free land of Canada, is Canadian trucker, Benjamin Dicta.
00:02:53.000He better not do any fascism while he's on this show, I tell you that, because while we support free speech, we do not support fascism.
00:03:01.000We're going to ask him, of course, about how those protests were shut down by Justin Trudeau, the erroneous and downright false claims that were made about that protest.
00:03:08.000Remember how Trudeau supports the anti-lockdown protests in China, because there's no consequences, but tried to evoke emergency acts to shut down protests in his own country.
00:03:19.000But let's start off today with some Light-hearted fun observing how there's nothing to worry about in our system.
00:04:02.000They're probably widely regarded as the best ones because you don't even see them from a partisan perspective.
00:04:07.000They function more like mythological characters now, don't they?
00:04:11.000Lincoln, I think, stands for patience and Washington for innovation.
00:04:16.000But I mean, in a sense, they probably, if you actually knew, if they had to exist now, Washington and Lincoln, people would be saying, oh, slave trade.
00:04:23.000I mean, they would not, it would not go over well, I don't think.
00:04:26.000But Trump, he's out there saying he's better than them.
00:04:29.000I just like that that's his first message.
00:04:43.000We're going to sell these NFTs, which amount to just sort of virtual digital baseball cards.
00:04:47.000It doesn't seem like there's any reason that they should exist at all.
00:04:50.000You don't need anything by almost by its nature.
00:04:53.000If it's virtual and digital, you kind of Don't need it.
00:04:55.000I know there are various examples of communicative tools that perhaps don't fit into that.
00:05:00.000But yeah, if you're launching essentially a sticker collection for the internet, you don't need to begin by making the outrageous and outlandish claim that you're better than George Washington and Lincoln.
00:06:38.000You can join us in the chat, of course.
00:06:39.000Let us know what you think about these Trump cards, whether or not you'd get them.
00:06:43.000But one thing you have to remark on is the man's virility, his ability as a communicator, because in a minute we're going to be looking at the current incumbent of the White House, and I've got to say that he lacks some of the pizzazz and panache of this chap.
00:06:56.000Trump digital cards, just like a baseball card or other collectibles.
00:07:01.000A baseball card or a collectible, actually, that's anything.
00:08:03.000Like, come in to the chocolate factory, just five of you, five very special opportunities, and then there'll be just one child, one will want to get sucked up the chocolate river, one turns into a blueberry.
00:08:18.000But one kid, one plucky kid, Ron DeSantis, he makes it to the end and you get to run the whole, don't lick the walls of my chocolate factory.
00:08:28.000I don't know if that's an amazing prize.
00:09:06.000Because one of the analyses, we keep offering you this and I'm going to keep offering you this until you agree with me.
00:09:11.000When George III went crazy and the colonies collapsed, you know, obviously as somewhat as a result of the American Revolution that led to the...
00:09:21.000First president, George Washington, who's the second or third best president there's ever been behind Lincoln and Trump.
00:09:28.000We were making the analysis that he went insane.
00:09:38.000Democracy emerged in the form of the French and American revolutions and gosh, you know, A little while later, different forms of revolution.
00:09:45.000But Biden's senility and the sort of entropy, the falling apart of Biden can be seen as a kind of like, this is the signal that something new needs to emerge.
00:10:07.000He's at a US-Africa Leaders Summit, and this is him talking about various visits that he's made to all sorts of places, so not the thing... It was an historic...
00:11:02.000There was a time where Biden was a bit Gene Hackman and there wouldn't have been the French connection, it would have been the Ukrainian connection with various energy companies, both in Ukraine and China.
00:11:12.000Later in the show, we're going to be talking about the hypocrisy of the current deals between Saudi Arabia and the United States around oil, particularly given that Saudi Arabia are acquiring a lot of their oil.
00:12:17.000Could we just get some pepper spray and some mace?
00:12:19.000Because if he tries to exercise his democratic right to stand up for ordinary working people against the might of the establishment, we will use the media to smear him.
00:12:30.000If necessary, there's nothing we will not say in order to ensure that ordinary people from across the world cannot come together to confront establishment power, to experience an individual spiritual awakening, to create their own stories, to create new systems.
00:13:07.000As well as this sort of deteriorating, deleterious clap track that dear old Sleepy Joe's spouting from that podium, the internet is abuzz with what's being put in his mouth by his own wife, who I believe is a doctor, isn't she?
00:13:21.000Well, she's either an actual doctor or one of those people that calls themselves a doctor.
00:14:45.000In a minute, actually, we're going to be talking about the hypocrisy of the geopolitical relationships between Saudi Arabia and Russia and the United States.
00:14:52.000And if Saudi Arabia are buying Russian oil, and we're meant to have sanctions against Russia and, in fact, Saudi Arabia, the whole thing is some mad conga of oily treachery.
00:15:07.000That was I. All right let's see what Jill Biden's doing because look at how the mainstream, this is what the mainstream media are offering you.
00:15:11.000While we're here doing our level best to awaken ourselves and you, while we're involved in a symbiotic relationship of mutual awakening, look at the dross they're trolling out over there.
00:16:11.000What I notice Gail is he starts to teeter totter forwards.
00:16:13.000I think in their case though that wouldn't have been kept in the, above the teeth of a dealer would it was it under the teeth or between the gum
00:16:23.000right I remember when you told me that I didn't like the sound of it yeah but
00:16:27.000they don't know I mean they don't matter it's in a little packet you don't I mean
00:16:30.000I did put it in my mouth after that's drug stuff don't do drugs drugs are
00:16:34.000obviously bad but what was it mr. president there's lots of speculation today
00:16:42.000over just what it was that the first lady handed to her husband at a White
00:16:46.000House ceremony yesterday the moment came just as the president was about
00:16:50.000to sign the respect for marriage act in front of an enthusiastic crowd
00:16:55.000you can see dr jill reaching for something off camera then she camera she's reaching for it so they're sort of they're passing it all around this yeah it is shady the way she does it and with those black gloves on as well yeah like with them sort of dr strange love gloves on i don't think that this should this should have been handled backstage as it were shouldn't it because what could be so uh urgent you know have it right now you better have this Otherwise, people are going to think you're like a bit stuttery and stumbery and stumbly and that you can't communicate properly.
00:17:25.000Perhaps he needs to be... Whatever that is, double it, I say.
00:17:29.000So you don't really hear pop it in the mouth in the news, do you?
00:18:02.000None of this charade is going to make any meaningful difference to the lives of ordinary people, even though in this instance it seems to be about marital equality, which obviously would be in support of, but broadly speaking, democratic processes only operate within No, because that's not the thing that makes the difference as to whether people are okay in their lives, is it?
00:18:27.000I mean, for example, you can get married, probably spend quite a lot of money on it, and then you'll still be in a cost-of-living crisis.
00:18:32.000You're going to be in the cost of living crisis.
00:18:34.000Your marriage takes place in the cost of living crisis.
00:18:36.000It takes place within a set of military-industrial complex agenda.
00:18:42.000I mean, that's what I'm starting to think now, is how are we going to get out of this?
00:18:44.000Is it that we're going to have to acquire land, places, and set up a series of interconnected communes, each one fully democratic, so like we can live in our commune how we want to, you can live in your commune how you want to, but we are no longer going to pay tax or participate in the system, and we consider ourselves to be a radical global revolutionary force.
00:20:51.000Is it that it's either Russians are so backward that their entertainment comes in the form of circuses and clowns or it's look at them laughing and joking with all the clowns and circuses while they're bombing Ukraine.
00:21:03.000What position are we meant to take here?
00:21:06.000Yeah, it's a strange headline for those reasons.
00:21:08.000I think the main position we're meant to take is just an unenquiring acceptance of the bilge that we're dealt.
00:21:16.000What's the next story we're having a look at?
00:21:18.000In England, in a Worcestershire village, people have created a statue of Vladimir Putin with a penis on his head, which I think is too realistic.
00:21:28.000Also, it looks like someone with a big head and a centre parting.
00:21:33.000Well, Gareth, that's all quite possible, but some of the ridges that lead up to the orifice at the top of the penis, I would say that's an excellent rendering.
00:23:28.000That would be both an exciting and terrifying experience, I think, because the g-force of the initial moment... Yeah, that was a Top Gear moment.
00:24:06.000What's really important is while we're getting infatuated and fixated on these various objects
00:24:11.000is we're not paying attention to the economic and resource-based stories that are to a degree
00:24:18.000dictating the way that this conflict is playing out.
00:24:21.000Saudi Arabia has doubled the amount of Russian oil it's purchasing as West Peru's oil deals with Saudi Arabia.
00:24:28.000Saudi Aramco exported 950,000 barrels per day of crude to Europe last month compared to 490,000 in the same period a year earlier.
00:24:37.000Saudi Arabia, the world's largest oil exporter, more than doubled the amount of Russian fuel It imported in the second quarter to feed power stations to meet summer cooling demands and free up the kingdom's own crude for export.
00:24:49.000So ultimately we're in a merry-go-round of acquisition.
00:24:53.000Whilst there are obviously sanctions and literally a war with Russia, Russian oil is ultimately being consumed by the West because we're increasing the amount of oil we're buying from Saudi Arabia.
00:25:06.000Whom you'll remember, Joe Biden said he would make a pariah after events like the assassination of old Khashoggi there.
00:25:15.000And nevertheless, the relationship is continuing, increasing in fact.
00:25:21.000Isn't it extraordinary that just 20 years ago, someone like Michael Moore could make the film Fahrenheit 9-11,
00:25:28.000which was all about the concerns that people had about George W. Bush and the Bush family
00:25:32.000in general's relationship with Saudi Arabia.
00:26:11.000In fact, by the time Obama left office, his administration had offered the Saudis more military support, $150 billion, than any in the history of the seven-decade U.S.-Saudi alliance.
00:26:24.000When Donald Trump was president, a lot of Democrats were given political cover to finally come around to opposing the Saudi-led campaign of annihilation in the Yemen.
00:26:32.000On the campaign trial, Biden pledged to continue the momentum and end U.S.
00:26:36.000bodyguarding of Saudi Arabia's crime, saying, I would make it very clear we're not, in fact, going to sell more weapons to them.
00:26:41.000We are going to, in fact, make them pay the price and make them the pariah that they are.
00:26:45.000Well, of course, that has not happened.
00:26:47.000There is an increase in arms dealing, potentially, allegedly, and it looks like oil acquisition also.
00:26:53.000Biden made the same promise about another world leader in February when he launched a murderous war against a neighbor.
00:26:58.000Putin's aggression against Ukraine will end up costing Russia dearly economically and strategically.
00:27:02.000We'll make sure that Putin will be a pariah on the international stage.
00:27:05.000So I suppose that at least has been delivered on.
00:27:07.000Well it has but it's exactly that and there's the hypocrisy there that you can talk about making Putin a pariah, you can talk about making the Saudis a pariah, but the thing is there are economic interests with Saudi Arabia.
00:27:17.000Arabia, you know, that America need them for oil. They also sell them a lot of
00:27:21.000weapons as do the UK. I think it was BAE Systems have sold Saudi Arabia
00:27:26.00017 billion pounds worth of arms in the last few years. So you know, there you go.
00:27:33.000And as you said before, we've got the situation now whereby Saudi Arabia are buying, have doubled the amount of oil that they're buying from Russia.
00:27:42.000And whilst here in the UK, in America, we're saying, oh, you know, the reason you're all paying more for your gas or for your petrol is because we're making sacrifices through sanctions.
00:27:53.000But all we're doing is we're now buying it from Saudi Arabia.
00:27:57.000And if you look at that bit of New York Post reporting and the way that it said that, you know, the unprovoked war and like it's presented to you in such a simplistic and reductive fashion.
00:28:08.000But with just a little research, and I'm not diminishing my own efforts or the efforts of the team, it becomes pretty clear.
00:28:15.000That there are economic and geopolitical motivations that transcend the moral posturing that determines what we're told about why these conflicts... Yeah, and then you look, obviously, you know, it's devastating what's happening in Ukraine.
00:28:26.000I think they're estimating at the moment 40,000 people have died.
00:28:29.000But you look at the situation in Yemen, and they're saying some 380,000 civilians are dead now, and children under the age of five are amongst the most common victims.
00:28:39.000And this is, you know, a Saudi-backed war that's going on at the moment, and with weapons provided by the West, provided by America, provided by the UK, and without backing.
00:28:56.000You know, we're saying that Russia are so dreadful because of the things that they're doing in Ukraine, but it doesn't apply to Saudi Arabia.
00:29:17.000If it's a moral stance that's been taken in arming Ukraine in their conflict against Russia, then why would a similar stance not be taken in this conflict between Saudi Arabia and Yemen?
00:29:29.000I know it's not particularly original to make these observations, but it's necessary to continue to highlight the hypocrisy of this type of reporting.
00:29:36.000Let's just have a look at the chart of Google News Story scores.
00:29:39.000Elon Musk stepping down as CEO of Twitter.
00:29:42.00049 million stories on that, which we'll be covering in tomorrow's show with our interview with Barry Weiss.
00:29:48.000She's coming on to, I suppose, give us some deeper insights into what might be going on there.
00:29:53.000Lionel Messi wore a locally relevant jacket as he lifted the World Cup with Argentina, 34 million stories on that.
00:30:02.000US sending Patriot missiles to Ukraine, 3 million stories on that.
00:30:06.000And a statue that merges into a gland, 58,000 stories.
00:30:14.000on that uh so you know that this leads us to our presentation here's the news now here's the effing news we're looking at how the u.s military industrial complex look to profit for years to come with their sexy new bomber you're gonna love this story because when you see how complicit the mainstream media are in sort of turning the introduction of a very expensive weapon that you're paying for With deals that have been done that would not happen without lobbying.
00:30:57.000There's no complexity, there's no morality, there's no introspection about the complexity of war, the horror of war, the duplicity of the military-industrial complex, the lies we've been recently told.
00:31:11.000It's presented to you like something from Top Gun.
00:32:17.000...is a provision that would establish an emergency multi-year plan to award massive defence contracts to Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, BAE Systems and other war corporations to produce weapons for Ukraine and to replenish US stockpiles as well as those of foreign allies and partners.
00:32:53.000Competition produces entrepreneurship and genius, and without it, we'd all be dead.
00:32:57.000This weapons contract might bring about a few deaths, but plenty of money.
00:33:00.000This, as military industrial complex giant Northrop Grumman introduces its B-21 Raider.
00:33:06.000The B-21, whose development was 30 years in the making and whose total project cost is expected to exceed $200 billion, is tapped to replace the B-2 Spirit.
00:33:15.000This sounds to me like the kind of weapon that we can all get behind.
00:33:18.000Not a terrifying machine of death and destruction, but something that ought be fetishized like it was a new iPhone.
00:33:24.000The United States Air Force has a new strategic long-range stealth bomber and it's built in Palmdale.
00:33:30.000The military says its destructive power is unmatched.
00:33:33.000They're talking about it in such glowing terms.
00:33:35.000Do you see how we've become normalised to the profiteering around the weapons industry, the normalisation of death and destruction, and almost a certain kind of pride in it, in the sense that this isn't something that should be queered, and that it's a good use of public resources?
00:33:49.000Look, I'm as vulnerable as the next person to the imagery in Top Gun Maverick.
00:34:10.000This is a machine of death and destruction.
00:34:13.000I think, and let me know in the comments and chat what you think, that the mainstream media should be interrogating and investigating whether this is the direction you want to head in.
00:34:20.000This is a time of collapse and crisis and conflict of It was unveiled tonight in a ceremony that looked like a Hollywood production.
00:34:26.000celebrate the introduction of a new weapon seems to me to be an extraordinary approach. What do you think?
00:34:32.000It was unveiled tonight in a ceremony that looked like a Hollywood production.
00:35:25.000Here I was thinking that you were delivering a puff piece on the militarization of commerce and Celebrating future wars, but it actually can drop nuclear weapons.
00:35:48.000God, that's coincidence because you're going to be doing a lot of contracts with Raytheon.
00:35:51.000It is a testament to America's enduring advantages in ingenuity and innovation.
00:35:57.000So it's sort of both like propaganda, patriotism, jingoism, distraction, aggravating and agitating for more conflict because it's sort of profitable that we have to regard war positively.
00:36:07.000We can't be circumspect or tired or weary or frightened or disgusted by war.
00:36:12.000Do you see how on one hand you're invited to view the tyranny of Putin as disgusting and egregious and then on the other hand the creation of these war machines is brilliant.
00:37:17.000What do the taxpayers get for their money?
00:37:19.000A weapon designed to deter aggression or respond to it.
00:37:22.000How dare they frame it as if it's beneficial to taxpayers.
00:37:25.000OK, taxpayers, here's those elite Well, couldn't we get some, like, energy for our homes and some food for our mouths and some recompense for the 2008 crash that the same interest also caused?
00:37:38.000The people that are going to benefit from this are the weapons industry.
00:37:41.000If it's an inadvertent side effect, a few Ukrainian people are safe down the line when enough profit's been extracted from this situation, that may happen and maybe that's enough for you.
00:37:51.000But to present it as if it's something that this is beneficial to all and ordinary Americans is just actually a lie.
00:37:58.000Sometimes we forget, don't we, that the news is just the television program.
00:38:01.000They're just broadcasting convenient ideas for the most powerful interests in the world.
00:38:06.000So whenever anything's presented itself as radical, you have to look, well, why would they put that on the television if it was truly at odds with the interests of the most powerful corporations in the world, which, in truth, own significant parts, either directly or tangentially, of these very media organizations?
00:38:20.000Let me know in the comments, let me know in the chat, how oppositional ideas will ever reach a significant number of people.
00:38:26.000Look up where it's coming out, that is like Hollywood, they've both mentioned like Hollywood in their scripts, both of those newscasters, and indeed it is because we're not being invited to look at it with any personal integrity or from a sort of a helicopter perspective of hold on what's actually happening here?
00:38:43.000we want this war? Is this what we really want? I mean this is your life and my life, this
00:38:47.000is our time on the planet and there's so much bewildering stimuli that you can't ever sort
00:38:52.000of inhale and go, well who am I really? Is this what I want?
00:38:55.000Well yeah you're a very lucky taxpayer, look, it will respond to aggression or will
00:38:59.000deter aggression. Well it better get ready for my aggression. It is ready for your aggression
00:39:03.000and so are your recently militarized police forces. That's what America does. That's what
00:39:25.000Let's go back to our lives and stare dumbly at screens to your next need is to do something ridiculous and outrageous to satiate your constant lust for power and money.
00:39:38.000The world has never seen technology like the V21.
00:39:41.000It's a shame that Northrop Grumman, which makes very high-tech machines, sounds like something that was invented by a North Yorkshire farmer in England a hundred years ago.
00:39:50.000I, Northrop Grumman, am very proud to plane.
00:40:11.000I'm thrilled that the time has come for you and the world to see the B-21 Raider.
00:40:18.000Maybe that is why the military fund films like Maverick Top Gun, because it all starts to bleed into the same thing, because I saw that film and I loved it.
00:40:24.000There's a review of it on this channel, it's a great film.
00:40:27.000But the reason I like it is because it's a film, not because it's I actually haven't.
00:40:34.000We have to remember how many innocent people have been killed as a result of activity by countries like yours and countries like mine as a result of colonialism, imperialism, propping up the corporate agenda.
00:40:44.000If it's about humanitarianism, just say to Raytheon and Lockheed Mine, would you mind making these things but just that cost and just extract any profit?
00:40:51.000So don't have a memo to your shareholders saying that we've got multi-year authority in Ukraine so we can look forward to many years of profit.
00:40:57.000Take that back though, we've decided, because it's the right thing to do, to make these things at cost.
00:41:01.000The same way that Albert Baller, CEO of Pfizer, said it would be appalling for us to profit from the vaccines.
00:41:06.000But I don't know if you know this already, Pfizer had their most profitable year in their history!
00:41:11.000So how far is that from what they told you?
00:41:13.000And if you talk about this, you're the conspiracy theorist!
00:41:16.000How have they got this game so stitched up?
00:41:18.000Let me know in the chat, man, because I'm baffled.
00:41:33.000I mean, America has been through Vietnam now, has been through the soul-searching of what it did to a generation of young Americans and, of course, the people in Vietnam.
00:41:40.000It's not like we're still at the stage of like, well, show it to Jerry and Hitler.
00:42:32.000Kathy, I just think it's so good that you, a woman, have come to a position of authority in such a male-dominated industry as the military-industrial complex.
00:42:42.000We're gonna actually, we've got an award for you.
00:42:43.000Of all the people that have been profiting from death around the world, you are the only one with a vagina, so we've got you this trophy.
00:42:49.000Sorry about the shape, it's inappropriate.
00:42:51.000We realize now that we shouldn't have focused on the vagina.
00:42:53.000And I realize it's a highly classified program and it's been very secretive up until now, but what can you share about what we're going to see at the unveiling tonight?
00:43:25.000Well, the B-21 Raider is a long-range strike aircraft, and what that means is it has the range to go anywhere in the world and har- Did you at least say harm people and hurt people?
00:43:36.000...in the world and har- keep a target at risk.
00:43:40.000It also is a platform, though, that is low-observable, and that means it can enter enemy airspace and not be detected.
00:44:31.000The B-21, it's one of several major programs that Northrop Grumman has right now, the reason that analysts expect this company to grow and be the fastest growing defense prime over the coming decade.
00:44:43.000I feel really great about Northrop Grumman's increasing profits, and I don't see any connection between that and an appetite to remain in this conflict in Ukraine.
00:45:42.000The 430 members who cast votes on the bill received $14.5 million in campaign and PAC contributions from the arms industry from 2021 through October 2022, according to data from Open Secrets.
00:45:55.000In 2020, 74% of Lockheed Martin's revenue came from congressionally approved funding.
00:46:23.000They've got more than enough fucking money because they're ingenious and apparently you ain't.
00:46:28.000Why are the mainstream media offering themselves up to make puff pieces of this nature for the military-industrial complex?
00:46:34.000And do you see a connection between this kind of reporting and an unwillingness to deal with the complexity of the conditions of this horrific war?
00:46:47.000All they're doing is lying to you on behalf of their paymasters.
00:46:50.000By the numbers, for the first time ever, fewer than half of all Americans have trust in traditional media, according to data from Edelman's annual trust barometer shared exclusively with Axios.
00:47:00.00056% of Americans agree with the Well, just look at that news broadcast, and no wonder there's so much machinery in place to create an air of misinformation and disinformation and doubt that causes you to be suspicious of information you might get from independent media.
00:47:19.000Of course, I know that social media has a lot of nonsense on it, but there's also a lot of independent journalists that are endeavoring to try and tell you the truth, and we count ourselves among them.
00:47:27.00058% think that most news organizations are more concerned with supporting an ideology or political position than with informing the public.
00:47:34.000So what we have here is a media machine working hard to create popular support through grammar, reductiveness, simplifications, and just mind-numbing corruption, deceit and simplicity, celebrating the profits of companies like Raytheon and Northrop Grumman, But that's just what I think.
00:47:50.000where there's a massive cost of living crisis, when people are choosing between heating and eating.
00:47:55.000You shouldn't have news stories where people go look at this glistening
00:47:58.000$750 million airplane at a time where people are starving hungry and freezing cold
00:48:04.000and blaming Putin, who in fact, seems like the biggest benefactor
00:48:07.000the military industrial complex could wish for.
00:48:25.000Moving from one anti-establishment discourse to another, we're now joined by Canadian trucker protest leader, although I believe it was a leaderless organisation, Benjamin Dictor.
00:48:37.000It was a very important popular movement against state authority that you were a part of.
00:48:43.000As the movement and the protests unfolded, what was revealed to you, mate, about increased authoritarianism, particularly within apparently liberal countries such as Canada?
00:48:54.000How did you learn about the nature of authoritarianism down on the ground in those protests?
00:49:00.000Well, I mean, the whole nature of the authoritarian change or authoritarian creep, as I like to say it, had been going on for some time.
00:49:08.000It just got massively accelerated in Ottawa.
00:49:11.000It went from just authoritarian creep to full banana republic.
00:49:16.000And targeting and smearing of us by the government, as opposed to them just merely engaging and talking to us.
00:49:24.000We saw in this commission that all the police, government officials, everybody was blaming each other.
00:49:29.000They were doing the, it's his fault, right?
00:49:32.000And then after three weeks, they went to DEFCON 3 and let's bring in Canada's version of martial law and start beating the most peaceful protests that we've had in Canadian history.
00:49:45.000Down on the ground, of course, as part of the protest and as one of the organizers of the protest, you were perfectly positioned to experience how peaceful it was.
00:49:55.000How did it feel when it was characterized as violent?
00:49:59.000And I'm going to refer to this tweet, mate, when Trudeau on the 1st of February Today in the House, Members of Parliament unanimously condemned the anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, anti-black racism, homophobia and transphobia that we've seen on display in Ottawa over the past number of days.
00:50:17.000Together, let's keep working to make Canada more inclusive.
00:50:21.000Within that tweet we can accept that all of those things are unacceptable perspectives and that's why they were so keen to ally your movement with those perspectives when it seemed to most inform people that were following it that what it was was a genuine popular movement against authoritarianism, against lockdowns, against mandates, against unelected undemocratic actions from an authoritarian government just with a nice haircut.
00:50:47.000How did you feel, mate, when you were labelled and targeted in that manner?
00:50:53.000I mean, I personally thought it was a sign of weakness, and I responded in an interview, I think that night or the next day, that unlike Prime Minister Blackface, I'm Jewish, and I still have family buried in mass graves in Europe.
00:51:08.000So it's quite interesting that he thinks this basket of labels, he can just Bring it out anytime he wants and smear whoever he wants to lazily and not thinking there's going to be repercussions from it.
00:51:22.000And I think it would massively discredit his reputation.
00:51:25.000You know, after the convoy, I had a broken ankle.
00:51:31.000And once I got my cast off and I could leave Ottawa on the end of March, well after the protest, I went to speak at the Bitcoin Conference in Miami, and then I went down to South America to practice walking.
00:51:45.000And I noticed the change of my friends, and this is one of the themes in the book, The political change that resulted from this, my friends in Latin America who previously thought, oh, Trudeau, he's wonderful, he's a young leader and whatever, now they start referring to him as cara negra fidelito, blackface little fidel.
00:52:05.000And that's because of the stupidity and the laziness of their arguments.
00:52:10.000And all they thought they had to do was smear us.
00:52:16.000Obviously, you have to delegitimize protesters as part of a process of shutting down protests that appear to have good grounds in this instance, anti-democratic behavior, anti-democratic mandates, the evocation of emergency action in an unprecedented manner.
00:52:35.000But one of the interesting components of this story, Benjamin, is that Joe Biden, obviously a foreign leader from across the border, Was appealing to Trudeau to shut this down because of the potential global impact?
00:52:49.000Were you aware that you were participating in something that could be the spark to light the flame of an anti-globalist popular movement?
00:52:58.000Did you feel like you were participating in something significant?
00:53:01.000And were you aware to the degree to which other governments were involved in shutting down this significant movement?
00:53:09.000So we had information that there were, during the convoy, sister convoys that were started in 30-plus countries, because we were getting the videos from all over the world.
00:53:42.000I know their tactics, which is what I used in the messaging of the protests.
00:53:47.000And I know that what they're doing, what you're discussing frequently, the globalization of our politics, people don't realize they're farming out their policies.
00:53:57.000This is where the World Economic Forum comes out, but they're not the only one.
00:54:00.000They far them out to universities, NGOs, and strategic planning firms to tell them what to say and what policy to have, but often they're built on these soft polls that's all fake data, so it's almost like the political class is running blind in many scenarios, and that's why you see there's no difference.
00:54:22.000Doesn't matter the party that you go to.
00:54:25.000In England, for example, look at the UK Conservatives.
00:54:28.000Whether you're a Conservative or not is not the point.
00:54:31.000The Liberals need to behave like Liberals.
00:54:34.000The Conservatives need to behave like Conservatives.
00:54:37.000So everybody has something that appeals to them.
00:54:40.000But now it's just become the global uniparty.
00:54:43.000And this was a big threat to the globalized uniparty.
00:54:47.000And I think that's why they acted so aggressively.
00:54:50.000And then one little asterisk, I was communicating, listen, I'm pretty open.
00:54:54.000I spent 10 years on a university dealing with the progressive nature of the student body and the university faculty and a business I used to own.
00:55:04.000So I'm kind of used to working within that frame.
00:55:07.000And we had 30 plus liberal MPs that were communicating to me through a conduit telling me they're trying to form a coalition within the Liberal Party To schedule a non-confidence vote to get rid of Justin Trudeau, because even they know he's no longer liberal.
00:55:43.000This is not designed for people to preach to the converted.
00:55:47.000This is to give to people who supported the convoy, to share with their friends who are in the progressive camp or the liberal camp, to understand this beautiful moment in Canadian history where all of us, irrespective of our personal political views, we came together as one country.
00:56:06.000That's what happens when the media and the politicians get out of the way.
00:56:13.000The consistency of language in the lockdown era was evidence of the centralised origin of much of the messaging.
00:56:23.000Of course, perhaps in a pandemic, given the nature of a pandemic, it's global by its nature, A centralised message kind of makes sense in that context, of course, but we're seeing increasingly authority that is not democratically earned being instantiated, whether that's censorship of social media platforms, whether it's anti-protest laws around the world, infiltration of apparently neutral or even private business interests by deep state agents, and referring specifically to CIA involvement in Twitter.
00:56:55.000And what we genuinely need, as you have just said and as you outline in your book, Honking for Freedom, fantastic title by the way, is a discourse.
00:57:04.000Now on this channel we welcome people with traditional perspectives, progressive perspectives, because ultimately we believe that the thing they fear most of all is us coming together to achieve alliances that are transcendent of their centralized agenda.
00:57:19.000And I think that whether you consider yourself to be a liberal person, a progressive person, a traditional person, a conservative person, None of these things are important to me.
00:57:26.000I believe in individual freedom, community engagement, and our ability to have a discourse.
00:57:31.000And right at the beginning of our conversation, you said that one of the things that was interesting is they didn't want to come down and speak with you.
00:57:37.000They didn't want to communicate with the protesters.
00:57:39.000They wanted to shut you down, ultimately with violence, whether you got a nice haircut or not.
00:57:43.000If you move to violence that quickly, that is authoritarianism.
00:57:46.000Trudeau's been explicit about his admiration of Chinese tyranny.
00:57:50.000Even while recently applauding the protesters there, the protesting against the lockdowns, without noticing the irony of his previous actions towards you and your movement.
00:58:02.000Now, I think it's going to be necessary more and more for people to organize against centralized authority as the authority of this nature increases.
00:58:11.000What practically are we going to need to know?
00:58:13.000A few tips on how we can organise in an inclusive way against centralised authority.
00:58:20.000I'm sure that's covered in your book, but are there a few things you can tell our viewers now?
00:58:24.000Yeah, one of the things I've started doing is I've started live streaming during the day.
00:58:29.000Just, you know, let's have coffee and let's talk about positivity and how we can look how the world is going to change.
00:58:36.000I believe, me and Stephen, Professor Stephen Hicks talked about it a few years ago, that we're on the crust of Enlightenment 2.0, the digital enlightenment.
00:58:47.000I think, you know, we've gone through a lot of bumpy periods right now, but after the COVID era, that's where we're going to end up.
00:58:54.000And one of the things I try to tell a lot of people, the people who follow me, who we've become, you know, a community of friends, all different backgrounds, by the way, there are people who are progressive, there are people non-progressive, but they like the idea that there's a positive vision forward.
00:59:10.000That what we need to do is we need to reach people in our families, in our communities, our friends who disagree with us politically.
00:59:40.000Benjamin, thank you very much for joining us for this conversation.
00:59:43.000Honking for Freedom is Benjamin's book that outlines his experience and hopefully gives us some information for how we can organize when necessarily we oppose the sensorial, authoritarian, globalist interests that currently dominate our democracies wherever we are in the world.
00:59:59.000Benjamin, thanks so much for joining us, mate.
01:00:48.000Tomorrow actually, or later in the week, we're talking about CBDCs, we're talking about centralised currencies, we're talking about the risks that we will face when we hand over the power to control currency to these evidently authoritarian forces.
01:01:01.000Thank you so much Benjamin, what a fantastic contribution.
01:01:04.000On tomorrow's show, we'll be talking to Barry Weiss, one of the journalists, along with friend of the show, Matt Taibbi, who broke the Twitterphile story, and we'll be talking to her about Elon Musk.
01:01:13.000And, you know, what does it mean, Elon Musk stepping down as CEO?
01:01:17.000We, on this show, feel like Elon Musk is not a person who makes missteps like that.
01:01:52.000Me and Gareth will be continuing to talk and we'll be answering your questions on Stay Free AF, that's our community on Locals, which you can join.
01:02:00.000We'll be talking about the terrible horror that can be inflicted upon us with a simple Christmas decoration, but ultimately we're going to be opposing centralised authority in all its forms and trying to evoke spiritual awakening, both individually, communally, And globally.
01:02:12.000We'll be doing that right now, so join us in a second on local.
