CANDACE OWENS (HOST): This is a headline in Evie magazine. The World Economic Forum wants to make you allergic to beef and Bill Gates as the mosquitoes to do it. I want to be very clear here. The mainstream media tells us that Bill Gates is a good guy, and so it must be true. So what if his name seems to be in the middle of a bunch of medical scandals? So what if various countries have accused him of crimes against humanity? So what if so many people actually believe that he is harming people via his vaccine incentives? That's all a lie, that's all a conspiracy theory, he's a really good guy who happened to be on Jeffrey Epstein's flight logs. But who cares? He's a good guy. He cares about you. So, I want you to know this about Bill Gates - he's a great guy.

...

Imagine that. I mean, that sounds crazy, right? They've got to have it wrong in this article. Why would Bill Gates, who is the largest farmland owner in the United States and has been trying to impress upon us that we should not eat real meat and who also happens to operate a bunch of mosquitoes that are carrying around bacteria -- why would he do that? Why would he make us allergic to beef? That's got to be a conspiracy theory. That can't be right.

Don't think for you. Allow the media to think for you. Allow the media, who are so clearly working with your government, think for you. Allow them to sell to you in five years, I guess, if we are following Canada -- in five years, that euthanasia against just the terminally ill is wrong and, actually, poor people even should be allowed to kill themselves. Allow them to convince you that one, two, three, four COVID vaccines that they just changed the definition of because the long-lasting definition of vaccines is no longer acceptable -- allow them to convince you that, even though you're not immune to COVID, it's still a good thing for you to roll up your sleeve and get four of them. Just keep allowing the government to convince you of stuff. Just suspend thinking, roll up your sleeve, and abide by everything your government wants. Because I'm sure they want what's best for you.

As previously reported by Reuters:

Claims that Bill Gates has chosen to “pump his money” into nefarious projects that include “blocking out the sun” and “producing toxic vaccines” instead of ending poverty and bettering the environment are misleading.

...

His investments in genetically modified (GMO) mosquitos relate to the foundation’s goals of ending poverty, disease and inequality around the world (www.gatesfoundation.org/). Oxitec, a British biotechnology company (www.oxitec.com), has released genetically modified mosquitoes with a self-limiting gene in Brazil (here), the Cayman Islands (here), Panama (here) and the United States (here).

These insects mate with female Aedes aegypti mosquitos that carry dangerous diseases like yellow fever, dengue, and the Zira virus, and in so doing stop their offspring surviving into adulthood (here). Critics have raised concerns that GMO mosquitos could damage eco-systems (here), but Gates has defended the technologies as a powerful tool against disease (here and here).

Meanwhile, the mention of “fake meat” likely refers to Gates’ advocacy for switching meat to synthetics to avoid a climate disaster (tcrn.ch/3tAl6qk , here).

As Media Matters has previously noted, Gates absolutely deserves scrutiny for his actions. That criticism should be grounded in fact and evidence, not conspiracy theories.
