President Trump’s plan to pardon Diddy over massive sex trafficking and abuse crimes, as revealed last week by insider Suge Knight, is one part in a much bigger series of ruling class schemes. And we need to study these schemes, because we have to anticipate what maneuvers our class enemies are going to carry out next.
The coming narrative manipulations will be centered around celebrity culture. This is because in the discourse that our ruling class is engineering, aesthetics are meant to be how ideas get communicated, not arguments. As revolutionaries, a crucial part of our mission is to elevate the discourse up from that debased state; to provide the masses with a real depth of analysis, and a means for collective organization.
Conspiracism isn’t required for this; we don’t need to make guesses about the motives behind ruling class actions, all we need to do is look at what effects these actions are having.
The Diddy pardoning plan is of course partly about defending the pedo rings that our rulers have created; but it’s also about diverting the discourse away from any conversation that actually threatens capital, in favor of narratives that have been carefully tailored for distraction and confusion.
With the project to free Diddy, the elite circle that Trump represents doesn’t aim to get the public on Diddy’s side. Though our ruling class is certainly trying to normalize pedophilia right now, Diddy himself was always a “fall guy” for those with the most power, and his reputation can’t be recovered. This circle has now decided to save Diddy because that will let the U.S. empire maintain its political blackmail network, which it uses to enforce legislative compliance over Zionism and numerous other agendas.
To carry out this self-rescue operation, the ruling class is boosting Kanye “Ye” West, essentially the only public figure who’s defending Diddy. That Ye has been calling to free Diddy is the secondary factor behind why he’s getting elevated. There’s a bigger reason why Ye is seen as such a useful psyop tool, and why we can expect him to be promoted much more in the near future: he represents a type of controlled opposition that can attract many people who have anti-Zionist leanings.
The imperial state prefers for Hitlerites like Ye to be the main voices of the anti-Zionist position, because this helps the Zionists make their argument. When you have massive public figures preaching anti-Jewish hate, even people who are against the genocide can often be brought towards the idea that we still need a Jewish state in Palestine. Which is a belief that by default hinders the anti-genocide movement, enabling the modern-day Holocaust to continue throughout Gaza and the West Bank.
This all connects to Trump’s recent effort at distancing himself from Netanyahu; the empire is trying to portray the Netanyahu camp as the core source of the problem, and promise a “solution” where Zionism can supposedly be rescued from extremists like Netanyahu. The effort to boost anti-Jewish bigotry is essential to this narrative; both psyops reinforce each other. Zionism and anti-Jewish sentiments have always been in a symbiotic relationship, which is why the deep state’s big tech platforms are now assisting Hitlerites like Ye.
In the long term, Hitlerism will become the main form of right-wing controlled opposition, replacing Trump and Silicon Valley MAGA. After Trump is gone, the white nationalists will fill his role, trying to pick up those who were formerly in Trump’s base. For this switch-over to work, though, first the white nationalists will need to sell themselves as a credible alternative to Trump. That’s why Hitlerites like Nick Fuentes, who used to be behind Trump, are increasingly posturing as being against him. They want to present themselves to the MAGA base as the real dissidents, as the ones who truly embody MAGA’s values.
If you’ve already rejected the Hitlerite “Jewish question” narrative, it’s obvious why this story the Hitlerites tell about themselves is a lie. But the reality of our conditions is that many U.S. Americans are susceptible to anti-Jewish sentiments, so they won’t be brought out of those sentiments without serious intervention from revolutionaries. And for this task of rescuing Americans from the white nationalist psyop, there is an extremely strong argument we can use: the argument about how both Trump’s circle and Ye’s circle are running cover for the elite sexual abuse rings.
If we expose this reality to the masses, the fraudulence of Hitlerism’s “dissident” image will be revealed. Why is it that the largest spokesman of the Hitlerites is somebody who’s been providing narrative cover for Trump in freeing Diddy? Why do these two figures share the agenda of protecting the pedo circles? It’s these kinds of questions that have the power to successfully discredit everything the white nationalists are selling.
One of our biggest problems at this stage is that much of the “alt” media isn’t willing to draw attention towards Trump’s role in the scheme to free Diddy, often because the commentators in these media spaces don’t want to alienate their MAGA audiences. In the case of Russell Brand, who’s arguably the biggest figure in alt media, the motivation for staying quiet is even worse than that; Brand has directly traveled inside Diddy’s circles, and he wants to protect himself.
The voices that have presented themselves as the anti-establishment truth-tellers are failing to present a complete picture of this situation. And if we don’t rectify that problem, the white nationalist elements of alt media will swoop in to fill the old alt media’s role. As time goes on, and Trump keeps failing to deliver as an anti-establishment leader, many people will get bored with the “independent” outlets that they’re currently watching. Then something worse will come to fill the vacuum in the discourse.
We need to find a way to preemptively seize the narrative from these charlatan hate-mongers, and from the deep state agents who are backing them. Part of what we can do is recognize that social media is not irrelevant to politics, as out-of-touch perspectives would have us believe. Social media and the algorithms became instrumental in driving mass sentiments a long time ago, which is why entire governments put great care into managing these things. Those of us within the anti-imperialist, popular revolutionary movement must prioritize the algorithms as well.
We must take seriously the task of capturing the public’s attention; if we do this, we’ll be able to surpass the opportunistic actors within alt media, which only seek to appeal to particular niches. The other part of our mission is to keep building the workers movement and the anti-imperialist united front, which can’t be done by adopting the opportunistic habits of our adversaries.
Those who promote false solutions to capital’s crises are trying to get people to want shortcuts. They promise that if we back Trump, or rehabilitate a genocidal dictator, or do anything other than engage in the class struggle, then we’ll be able to rescue our society. Such simplistic narratives depend on a limited discourse, one that the psyop machine seeks to make more simple as time goes on. Whereas the Hitlerite psyop is targeting Gen Z with arguments, it will target Gen Alpha with aesthetics. Ye, with his promotions of Nazism through vibes, is meant to prepare society for that next phase. It’s our task to lift the culture out of this superficial state, and give people purpose; purpose that comes not from aesthetics, but from contributing towards a collective struggle.
