‼️On The Potential of Art & The Limits of Tucker Carlson (w/ Saul Williams)‼️ "I don't want to be stuck in one of these debates for the next three years, because Tucker Carlson runs for office, where we're having these back and forths about whether he's a white supremacist because of something that he said 20 years ago, & we're ignoring what he believes now."

![“One of the things I find very disturbing is when they’re bombing Venezuelan boats in the Caribbean, you have two [sets of] people talking on western media. One says we should bomb them and get rid of them and take their oil. And the other group days: ‘Well, Maduro is evil and it’s a dictatorship,’ but we should know for me there is no difference between these two…Who are you to say Maduro is evil. Go and say your own government is evil.” - Seyed Mohammad Marandi](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2041253147285639608/amplify_video_thumb/2041252104812068864/img/Aa-hrRji4a7n2YG7.jpg)

!["I find the evocation of horseshoe theory kind of a trigger. Is it to say that that a working class person in one of these red states who might also object to both data centers and wind [energy], if they also feel like they don't want to fight a war with Iran, I'm supposed to be pro a war with Iran just because some conservative in Indiana happens to agree with me?" -BJG](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2061524381294309651/amplify_video_thumb/2061523881215787008/img/YsQ-Kxy0_VsWJgQT.jpg)

!["My frustration with the left is that when it comes time to actually elect [Democrats], the energy is so oppositional...You don't even support Kamala Harris during the election. It's not like you say: 'ok, well, we'll get her elected and then we'll criticize. You don't even want to get her elected. That's where I see the criticism as this 'critiquing power' thing." - Natalie Wynn "Do I have more leverage against Kamala Harris before she's elected or when she's president for four years?" -BJG](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2052443236044542076/amplify_video_thumb/2052442203977297925/img/zq_fsn6yxVHuXcWR.jpg)

If you don’t understand that this is racist, it’s probably because you’re racist too. Saying Charlie Kirk was bigoted should be the least controversial statement on the planet. He regularly argued for white/Christian superiority over other races/religions explicitly, & without reservation.

"There IS a left, and Tucker Carlson is tapping into them...This is like everyone being mad at Michelle Obama for finally saying everyone who voted for Trump isn't necessarily motivated by racism...That's not to say that you can't be racist, but the racist voted for Barack Obama, & then was so racist they couldn't vote for Hillary Clinton?!" -BJG

‼️Bad Words (w/ susan abulhawa | سوزان ابو الهوى)‼️ "I think we're the only people in the world, maybe in history, who are expected to experience our own genocide and then be expected to watch what we say so we don't offend the people who did this. So I resent that, & I reject it completely. Which is why I double & triple down. Because I do -- I think they're demons."

"Right now they're bombing Tehran. Right now you can hear multiple bombs, carpet bombing right now...They're carpet bombing the city. And kids are dying. That's how it is. But Western media will say: 'well, you know, the, the enriched uranium -- what about that?' ...It's not about the immorality of these crimes. Just like in Gaza, after 2.5 years, they still won't say genocide." -Seyed Mohammad Marandi

And I'm sitting there actually putting myself at risk for his show, & he wants me to sit down under airstrikes & criticize Iran."
