🎸Sgt. Tavistock’s Lonely Braincell Club Band

Well folks, Candace Owens is back in the news, and-brace yourselves-she’s still not saying anything intelligent. This time, she’s claiming The Beatles were “totally a psychological operation,” cooked up by the Tavistock Institute to melt minds with LSD and free love. Because obviously, when dropped, the CIA and MI6 high-fived and said, “Operation Mop-Top is a go.”

This isn’t even a new conspiracy theory. The “Beatles were a psy-op” gem has been floating around in the fetid corner of the internet where Alex Jones, Boomer YouTubers, and people with 14-letter usernames still argue about Q drops. But now it’s been laundered through the high-functioning idiocy of Owens, who parroted it on her show like she was breaking Watergate.

🎤 Candace Owens: From TPUSA Darling to Antisemite of the Year

Owens didn’t just criticize Israel’s politics (a defensible position); she pushed Khazar myths, blamed “political Jews” for censorship, and started ranting about some mysterious “Frankist cult” running the world-classic antisemitic tropes, polished up for her podcast audience and peppered with Christian nationalist vibes.

That might’ve been the end of the story if not for her BFF status with the next character in this cracked-out morality play…

Remember when Kanye West used to be known for music? Yeah, me neither. These days, Ye is better known for running a one-man tribute band called Hitler’s Greatest Hits . The man has said “I like Hitler,” called himself a Nazi on Alex Jones’ show (which is like bringing a tinfoil hat to a tinfoil factory), and claimed the Holocaust didn’t happen. So naturally, Candace defended him.

⚔️Mark Robinson: The Black Nazi with a Porn Username

And yet, he’s the Republican frontrunner in a swing state. The guy openly said Jews are responsible for controlling the media and has praised Confederate monuments like they’re holy relics. This is not a sideshow. This is the damn main act.

🎙️Larry Elder: The “White Supremacy Is a Hoax” Tour Guide

Larry Elder, meanwhile, has been LARPing as the “Black face of white supremacy” (their words, not mine- said it first) for years. He’s another one of those “systemic racism is a myth” types who insists police are around Black people. He also famously shared a stage with white nationalist Kyle Chapman and tried to pass it off as a scheduling mix-up. Sure, and I accidentally hosted brunch with David Duke last Sunday. more careful

Elder’s whole shtick is playing the contrarian so hard that it circles back into Stockholm Syndrome. He’s built a career out of telling white conservatives exactly what they want to hear from a Black man-namely, that racism isn’t real, everything is the left’s fault, and plantation metaphors are still clever in 2025.

This isn’t coincidence. Owens, West, Robinson, Elder-each of them is part of a growing faction of Black conservatives who are not just cozying up to white nationalism but outright adopting its language, aesthetics, and antisemitic worldview.

Why? Because there’s clout in contradiction. Because right-wing media eats it up when someone “breaks the narrative” (translation: gives them racial cover for hate). And because, in this grift economy, nothing pays like being a Black voice telling white conservatives that they’re the real victims.

But let’s bring this trainwreck full circle.

She’s not fearless. She’s reckless. And what we’re seeing from her and others like her isn’t iconoclasm. It’s cultural arson-burning down truth, history, and reality itself just to get clicks and applause from the worst people on the internet.

So no, Candace, The Beatles weren’t a government psy-op.

But you? You’re damn sure auditioning for one.
