Disobedient Media previously reported at the New Zealand Anti-Bill Feast in New Zealand which featured numerous high-profile guests including Lee Camp, RT America's Redacted Tonight host, and Lauri Love whistleblower, Barret Brown and John Kiriakou, who were signatories to the VIPS sent to President Trump condemning the Russian hacking narrative.
The Anti-Spy Bill event serves as an example of the growing power of independent media, which has filled the void left behind by the mainstream press that has been repeatedly characterized by HA Goodman as a "PR company" for characters such as Hillary Clinton.
HA Goodman, the latest keynote speaker at the event, is a sharp independent journalist who consistently fights the false narratives perpetuated by the media inheritance as well as the corruption of the political institutions. He spoke with Suzie Dawson on various topics from Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, to the needs of Wikileaks founder, Julian Assange, to regain his freedom.
During the conversation, Goodman described what he saw as an important distinction between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders platform during the 2016 preliminary election. He told Suzie Dawson: "Bernie ... wants to destroy the banks. He wants to restore Glass-Steagal, he wants to ban fracking, and to end quagmires; he uses those words. And of course he wants to apply a single payer, which now Democrats pretend that they care. "
Goodman continues: "The difference between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders; Sanders deals with structural issues. He wants to end quagmires. He talks about transforming a highly corrupt political environment; collecting money not through Super PACS or corrupt foundations like the Clinton Foundation. He went from nationally unknown to an almost universal name recognition in a year. "
Goodman stated that Democrats are focused on pushing the failed narratives instead of 'talking to people,' especially those in the rust belt, and at the expense of structural reforms that will implement real change. He said that, if anything, Hillary Clinton was suggested by the Bush-era neocons. Goodman also discussed deep corruption within the Democratic Party that was clearly expressed by Wikileaks publications about DNC emails and in DNC Fraud.
Suzie Dawson, host of Anti Spy Bill and New Zealand's Internet Party leader, was forced to leave New Zealand due to increased harassment he received from the authorities in response to his work. He has spoken repeatedly to the sale of personal data to and by intelligence agencies without consent.
Dawson spoke during the show about people who voted for Clinton because they considered themselves feminists: "You make people say of course I chose Hillary Clinton, I am a feminist. But Hillary Clinton bombs many women and children because she gets away with it. It's not feminist ... To me, the feminist movement is an anti-war movement, and anyone who tries to co-opt for war and globalization is, I think, a fake feminist. "Dawson also stated that it was" frankly ridiculous, "to call people" Neo-Nazis to just dislike Clinton or not enough to hate Trump. "
Dawson also criticized Trump, while commenting on Clinton's supporters "" embracing "to a deep state and intelligence community, before tackling a large-scale war racism.
Kim Dotcom, founder of New Zealand's Internet Party that hosted the Anti-Spy Bill event, was in the midst of a protracted legal battle that recently included a revelation that the NSA had continued to illegally spy on him long after the institutions New Zealand officially ends their oversight. He is currently fighting US attempts to extradite him from New Zealand, and has criticized the NSA for illegally using New Zealand spy agency to keep an eye on him.
Both he and Dawson have raised awareness in New Zealand and internationally on the lack of severe oversight of US government collections and the use of civilian private data. They also speak out against the purchase and sale of this sustainable information. To date, both Kim Dotcom and Suzie Dawson's efforts have been minimally reported by the United States press; this gap has contributed to the increase for independent media personalities, such as HA Goodman, who are constantly providing important information to the public where the media of the founding are not.
