7:42Now PlayingEmma Vigeland introduces a clip of The Daily Wire's Candace Owens, on her show, "Candace." Candace Owens is discussing this past weekend's protests in Cuba, and insinuates that Twitter is manipulating their headlines to run cover for what is really going on in Cuba, which is that they aren't protesting shortages of goods and services during Covid-19, they are protesting communism itself. She goes on to say that Covid-19, worldwide, is "democratic socialists, aka the communists, coming together to bring communism to the American shores." There are a great many problems with Candace Owens's theory, among which are that Covid-19 is real and the U.S.'s foreign policy and vaccine exportation policy are a big reasons for the current problems in Cuba. The Majority Report crew discuss.

Emma Vigeland: Candace Owens is just doing her thing, and she has gone even further down the Covid-19 conspiracy wormhole than I've seen some of her colleagues at The Daily Wire do at this point. Let's take a listen to what she has to say about Covid and communism.
Candace Owens: We obviously know the reason that they're running point on this is because they don't want Americans to connect the dots. Because we're at the beginning of this horror show, right at the beginning, where they come and they say, "It's going to be great everyone, we're going to band together, we're going to take from the rich people and you're going to have more." And they are in Cuba, at the end of this nightmare, and realizing that, actually, no. It was just their government growing themselves, empowering themselves, and removing power from the people. These people are starving, and they're in the streets, and I want to get to actually Twitter, because this shocked me when i saw the banner. Everybody in the world knows this is about them protesting against communism, and look at Twitter's headline: "The protests take place across Cuba as country faces shortages of Covid-19 vaccines." This is a protest about, you know what, I'm going to agree with them. This is a protest against Covid-19, because Covid-19 is nothing but a big cover for communist rule hitting the shores of the West. You are masking our children; you're pretending it's because of Covid-19. You are radically changing the way that we vote in this country; you are pretending it's because of Covid-19. All of this stuff is actually the democratic socialists aka the communists coming together to bring communism to the American shores.
Guy: Absolutely, and it's exactly what they did before they consolidated power and Fidel finally admitted he was a communist. In fact, you look at their propaganda they put out back then, you could interchange that with the actual materials from democratic candidates today. We're not communist, we're humanists. We're pro-justice for all, we want health care for all, we want education for all. They wanted indoctrination in schools for all, they wanted division of race for all, they wanted to go door to door.
Emma Vigeland: "Candace," that's the name of her show. I like how it's like in the vein of "The View," it kind of looks like.
Brendan Finn: Oprah.
Matt Binder: Where's the show on? Is this on like The Blaze or something?
Brendan Finn: Daily Wire.
Emma Vigeland: Yeah, the big "O" for Owens, but the show's called "Candace," so maybe just make it about that. I am confused about this argument here. She passionately talks about how the protests in Cuba are about communism. And then it takes quite a turn, that Covid-19 in and of itself, is a plot to bring communism to the shores of the West. So can you guys help me piece this together? I'm not exactly sure how she made that initial leap and how masking has anything to do with communism.
Matt Lech: Just like they think any sort of climate change addressing is an attack on capitalism, because fundamentally it is, it's pointed out that capitalism actually can't address this problem and we need major government action and collective action to do so.
