Throughout modern history, activists have craved cameras. They’ve loved it when the press is there to document their handiwork and help spread their message to the masses. Even as recently as just before the coronavirus crisis, the radical leftist environmentalist group Extinction Rebellion would do whatever they could to share their exploits on social media and draw mainstream media attention.
Things are very different with the Cultural Marxists among the Black Lives Matter and Antifa groups that are dominating the news cycles today. They seem to be camera shy, whether it’s with the failing Capitol Hill Occupied Protest (CHOP) in Seattle where shooting video can get you attacked to the “activists” in Salt Lake City who painted the streets red to represent blood in front of the District Attorney’s office. Part of it is simply not wanting video for law enforcement to use as evidence or tracking of criminals. But arguably the biggest reason they are usually so camera-shy is because the optics are terrible.
If more Americans knew not only what is being done but who is doing it, there would be fewer people getting behind these linked movements as well as the powers behind them. That’s why cameras are anathema in most circumstances pertaining to Antifa and Black Lives Matter. They want to show the results of their actions but not the origins or progress of them. Why?
Senator Ted Cruz noted something based on a recording of a so-called Black Lives Matter event in Salt Lake City. Though the red paint was supposed to signify the blood of African-Americans who were killed by police, it’s noteworthy that those participating were not the supposedly oppressed. The street painting was done by Caucasian kids, including some who appeared to be from affluent families. It was done rapidly to avoid scrutiny of the actual incident. And no, cameras were not allowed. But as the Senator pointed out from journalist Andy Ngo’s video, the guy blocking the camera seemed to have a really nice bicycle.

In the latest episode of the NOQ Report Podcast, we discussed everything from George Soros to conspiracy theories to the reality of the situation on the ground.
The vast majority of activists for other causes love to get press. They love the optics they create and they’re proud of their cause. But with these BLM-Antifa episodes, they hide from media. That should tell you something about their “movement.”
Check out the NEW NOQ Report Podcast.
American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Truth Based Media
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
