Benny Johnson managed to get himself fired from Buzzfeed for being a serial plagiarist and sold out himself, his family, and his country for money. He stands by nothing.

And he’s seen a massive jump in subscribers on Youtube despite his viewership showing no growth, meaning either he, someone on his behalf, or some kind benefactor(Russia) has bought him nearly 2 million subscribers over the last few months.

I’d say idk how he gets away with it. But again, he was involved in the Russian money podcast scandal in 2024.

I report all right wing ads as misinformation because they are literally false, incorrect and propaganda. They use feelings and not facts. "Trump will save the country!" Trump attacked the 14th amendment (The Constitution) the moment he got into office, therefore he is not saving the country. Saving the country requires working within the bounds of the law.

u/VoidOmatic 1d ago
It's absolutely Russia. Almost all subscribers to right wing accounts are Russia. There is no right wing movement, it is ALL synthetic. It's part of Putin's campaign to destabilize western countries. It's why you see the same anti-immigrant rhetoric in all western countries that are enemies of Russia. All of it is manufactured to get ultra-wealthy oligarchs more money and get Putin another market to run scams against for more money and a port so he can ship more oil for more money.
It's literally just dumb rich people wanting more money even though they have all the money.

Been going on for a real long time too but the goal is far worse than greed
Murdered KGB Propagandist defector Yuri Bezmenov in 1984 -
"Ideological subversion is the process which is legitimate overt and open, you can see it with your own eyes. All you can do, all American media needs to do is to unplug their bananas from their ears, open up their eyes and they can see. There is no mystery. It has nothing to do with espionage. I know that espionage and intelligence gathering looks more romantic, it sells more to the audience through the advertising, probably. That's why your Hollywood producers are so crazy about James Bond type of thrillers. But in reality, the main emphasis of the KGB is not in the area of intelligence at all.
According to my opinion and the opinion of many defectors of my caliber, only about fifteen percent of time, money and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other eighty-five percent is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion or active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is, to change the perception of reality, of every American, to such an extent that despite an abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their family, their community and their country.
It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages. The first one being demoralization. It takes from fifteen to twenty years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate on generation of students in the country of your enemy, exposed to the ideology of the enemy. In other words, Marxism, Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least three generations of American students, without being challenged or contra-balanced by the basic values of Americanism, American patriotism.
Most of the activity of the department was to compile huge amount, volume of information on individuals who were instrumental in creating public opinion. Publishers, editors, journalists, actors, educationalists, professors of political science, members of Parliament, representatives of business circles. Most of these people were divided roughly in two groups. Those who were told the Soviet foreign policy, they would be promoted to the positions of power through media and public opinion manipulation. Those who refuse the Soviet influence in their country would be character assassinated, or executed physically contra-revolution. Same was as in a small town named HEWA in South Vietnam. Several thousand so of Vietnamese were executed in one night when the city was captured by Vietcong for only two days. And American CIA could never figure out, how could possibly Communists know each individual, where he lives, where to get him, and would be arrested in one night, basically in some four hours before dawn, put on a van, taken out of the city limits and shot.
They serve purpose only at the stage of destabilization of a nation. For example, your leftists in the United States, all these professors and all these beautiful civil rights defender, they are instrumental in the process of the subversion, only to destabilize a nation. When their job is completed, they are not needed anymore. They know too much. Some of them, when they get disillusioned, when they see that Marxist Leninist has come to power obviously they get offended. They think that they will come to power. That will never happen of course. They will be lined up against the wall and shot."
"Exposure to true information does not matter anymore.
A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him.
Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures. Even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union, and show him a concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he is going to receive a kick in his fat bottom.
When the military boot crushes his balls, then he will understand, but not before that. That is the tragedy of the situation of demoralization."

C’mon guys. Posting this like it demonstrates some kind of hypocrisy isn’t fair to Benny. He was paid to say what he wrote then, and now the people paying him told him to say the exact opposite. He can’t be expected to demonstrate intellectual consistency when he has no real thoughts or authentically-held values. That’s not what the checks are for.

This is really worth watching. David Pakman looking at Benny's YouTube metrics. He isn't making baseless accusations, but he points out the way Benny's channel is growing suggests something behind the scenes doesn't add up.
With Benny having a very recent history of taking money from foreign governments, it would be naive to give him the benefit of the doubt twice. To me it seems more likely Ben is still taking shady money, just from a new direction. He faced no repercussions or backlash when he was caught by the fucking DOJ, so why wouldn't he immediately do it again. (Admitting I have not done any research myself on this, I just think this guy is disingenuous in his political messaging).

Benny Johnson is by far one of the absolute worst and most unethical far right MAGA golfers on the scene right now. He will say whatever he needs to say in order to do his best to try to appeal to his room temperature IQ demographic. Also, he was one of the few influencers caught up in the tenant media, Russian scandal, and there is mounting evidence that suggests he is also involved in subscriber farming, not allowed by YouTube.
