Given the nature of my content and of my historical, political and philosophical positions, it ought to have come as no surprise to find that my YouTube channel has been taken down. Indeed, I am quite surprised that it lasted the eight years that it did. What might come as a surprise to some, but not to me, was that the offending video that finally got my channel terminated was one about the alleged assassination attempt of Donald Trump, in which I explored the probability that it was set up by Trump himself and his team, which is my personal view. Many on the Left have also suggested this, but, as ever, they are left alone, whereas anyone on the Right suggesting the same is targeted. Of course, someone has to have reported the video in question, and to quote the great Jacques Clouseau, "I suspect everyone and no one." Prime candidates are Cucker Tarlson's team and Jimmy Dore's team, as I was banned from their YouTube comments sections for making the claim there. It could also be a conspiracy theorist called Rin Michaelis, who is a Black American Woman of Coloured Person who has prior form for reporting people she does not like, and my ethnocentrism as an Ethnic European will no doubt be anathema to her. The reason I mention her is that she appears as a regular on Ben Emlyn Jones' channel (Ben TheJRPorter), who often mentions me and my channel and with whom I did a podcast on The Prisoner, and so she is no doubt well aware of who I am. Of course, it might not be any of these, and YouTube's AI algorithms may just have been set to shut down any Rightist dissent on the matter. We will probably never know. It does however show what I have been saying all along: that Trump is very much protected by the establishment because he is part of the establishment. Always has been.
We return to the subject of the alleged assassination attempt of Donald Trump to clear up a few matters, and then to compare this shooting with the Tucson shooting in Arizona in 2011, in which six people were shot dead, and the politician Gabby Giffords was allegedly shot in the head....but made a miraculous recovery. My comment on Jimmy Dore's video addressing his conspiracy theories on his YouTube channel, in which I made the comparison between the two shootings, was immediately removed, and I have been banned from commenting. So much for those who stand up for freedom and democracy eh...?
We're back to the hot topic of the moment, the alleged assassination attempt made supposedly against Donald Trump; but was it? And if not, how was it done and what really happened? I attempt to answer these questions in the latest video.
I did I very quick report on the news yesterday that a sniper had allegedly attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at a speech in Bulter, Pennysylvania. My view has still not changed: that it was staged. There are several telltale signs: the opportunity for an Iwo Jima-style photo with Trump defiantly pumping his fist in the air; the "heroic flesh wound" at the side of the face that caused no damage (perfect shot!); the fact that a man carrying a sniper rifle was allowed on the roof of the stadium without anyone from Trump's entourage noticing. Already, I notice people on social media changing their profile pictures to what is being pushed as the iconic photo below. Again, we are being presented with another fake "anti-establishment" hero, just like Nigel Farage, who came on to speak at a Trump rally the other day.
Television and the media in general interpret the world for the masses. The problems are not just with who gets to do the interpreting and with the dishonesty of the interpretation, but also with the dishonest personae of the people most viewers - even sceptical ones with regard to interpretation - buy into as genuine. To give you an example of what I mean, I'll give a little commentary on the clip below from the Dick Cavett Show. As you will see later, it is very relevant to contemorary events. In a mirror of contemporary life, John Wayne is absent from the studio, just as he is now long deceased in real life, while Cavett and Kirk Douglas live on, Douglas currently at the ripe old age of 102. Douglas and Wayne both had their names changed in order to play the heroic masculine characters with whom they became synonymous, Wayne, born Marion Morrison, probably because his name was too effeminate (although he himself had no part in the decision), and Douglas, born Issur Demsky, because it was too foreign.
Again we see another terrible shooting incident in America being used as political leverage. It has been suggested by some on the Alternative Right that the murder of seventeen people at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida by Nikolas Cruz was orchestrated by the government. Certainly, something does not sit quite right about the event. We are told by the mainstream media that Cruz is a white supremacist and Donald Trump supporter, which is convenient, and his own ethnicity is disguised by the fact that he was adopted at birth. Living in a post-truth age in which the media constantly churns out fake news means many facts about the case are impossible to discern. What is known, however, is that both the FBI and local police under Sheriff Scott Israel (note the surname) allowed the massacre to happen through inactivity. Cruz was known to the FBI as a threat, but was never arrested despite stating on social media that he was going to exactly what he did. During the attack itself, Israel's deputies stood and watched and never made any effort to stop Cruz, which is bizarre.
