Mike Benz - Exposing The EU’s Plot To Destroy Free Speech in America

Mike Benz - Exposing The EU’s Plot To Destroy Free Speech in America

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Mike Benz, former State Department official and leading critic of the Censorship Industrial Complex, to expose how governments and NGOs are working hand-in-glove with Big Tech to police free speech across the West.


Mike explains how the EU’s Digital Services Act and Britain’s Online Safety Act are being used to impose AI-driven censorship, threatening not only European citizens but also Americans posting from within the US. We explore how these laws function as a “digital censorship regime,” backed by crippling fines and international coordination.


From USAID funding NGOs to shut down cross-border political movements, to the Hate Lab in Cardiff feeding real-time speech data to UK police, Benz reveals how censorship has become industrialised — and how Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter briefly broke the system.


We also discuss the Biden administration’s role, the UK’s crackdown on comedians and dissidents, and the disturbing reality of AI censorship ‘Death Stars’ designed to silence debate on elections, COVID, climate, and more.


A deep dive into the machinery of modern censorship — and what it means for the future of free speech in the West.

Professor Eric Kaufmann - Woke Isn't Dead, Why White Women Are WOKE & The Awkward TRUTH about Ethno-Nationalism

Professor Eric Kaufmann - Woke Isn't Dead, Why White Women Are WOKE & The Awkward TRUTH about Ethno-Nationalism

Professor Eric Kaufmann discuss the evolution and future of woke, noting its peak and potential resurgence. It was not in fact ended by the reelection of Donald Trump, he argues, and in this interview explains why. Kaufmann argues that woke-ism, characterised by the sacralisation of marginalised groups, has seen a decline in corporate and educational practices but remains strong among younger generations. Will there be new versions of BLM, MeToo, Antifa as a reaction to Trump’s second term? Are we already seeing it in response to Elon Musk, with the targeting of Tesla?Eric and Winston explore the concept of national identity in the era of “diversity is our greatest strength”. What is the truth about ethnonationaolsm? Is former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak English? They also explore the impact of immigration on social cohesion, and national identity.He notes that cultural debates, such as those over free speech and diversity, are a secondary response to populism. And that populism is a response to mass migration, Islam, LGBT and feminist issues.Eric Peter Kaufmann is a Canadian professor of politics at the University of Buckingham. He is author of several books including: ‘The Rise and Fall of Anglo-America: The Decline of Dominant Ethnicity in the United States’, ‘Shall the Religious Inherit the Earth?: Demography and Politics in the Twenty-First Century’, ‘Whiteshift: Populism, Immigration, and the Future of White Majorities’ and ‘The Third Awokening’-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters0:00 The End of Wokeism and Its Implications5:41 The Persistence of Woke Ideas10:39 The Role of Social Media in Shaping Woke Ideas26:17 The Future of Wokeism and The Complexity of National Identity40:14 The Role of Ethnicity and Religion in National Identity59:58 The Impact of Immigration on National Identity1:00:18 The Challenges of Integration and Assimilation1:05:46 The Future of Wokeism and National Identity1:08:01 Populism and Wokeness1:10:33 Cultural Wars and Diversity1:12:08 Closing thoughts Hosted on Acast.

EXCLUSIVE: Oliver Anthony - Life After ‘Rich Men’, The Christian Counter Culture and The Elites

Oliver Anthony is a folk singer on a mission. Embodying the Appalachian rust belt, forgotten America he stands up for the “nobodies”, the forgotten working people of the brave new globalised world. Winston sits down with him after his now viral ARC Conference speech to discuss his Christianity, his musical influences and his grappling with new found fame.Being attacked by the mainstream media and facing the behemoth monopolies of the music industry like Live Nation, he has launched his Rural Revival - announcing independent shows that put him face to face with people. No more middle men.We discuss his love of Rage Agaisnt The Machine and early Country music, the inspirations behind his hit song ‘Rich Men North of Richmond’.Republican and Democrats are both “full of crap” - Hope won’t be found in politicians be they Trump or Biden - rather they will be found in communities and neighbours working together.
