It's basically copaganda, so it has bite, but in the wrong direction.

At one point it makes a direct analogy between black people being murdered by the state and police being killed by criminals because the government made it harder to pull out their guns.

The government made it harder for a black officer to pull out his gun. You can’t watch Watchmen and think the police are the good guys.

No human has ever been killed by a hammerhead shark, and there have been 17 total unprovoked hammerhead attacks on humans in the last four hundred and fifty years.

the watchmen show literally is so dedicated to its weird faux-woke thing it has no actual ideology. It made a character explicitly meant to be a KKK member to show how vigilantes are not even a full step removed from them, who also literally loved Hitler, a black guy just for a weird twist to be all 'see, there ARE other black heroes in this world's history but the racists made him...praise Hitler...' You can't call it copaganda because literally nobody in the writing room understood politics enough to be capable of any form of propaganda

We’ve seen plenty of looting during the ‘peaceful protests,’ but the looters we saw on TV are amateurs compared to what’s going on at the top.

The Federal Reserve no longer consults Congress to create and distribute their debt currency. Not only has the Fed routinely bailed out its owners—the globalist central banks—it has also engaged in nonstop quantitative easing to prop up the stock market. Just this morning I saw the Dow was down over 700, but then for some reason it flew up to nearly 300 in the green. Was there fantastic news to trigger a nearly 1,000 point turnaround? No. It was the Federal Reserve at work. The market needed ‘liquidity’ just as a dry drunk needs more booze.

If the Federal Reserve is buying their own treasuries as well as bonds and stocks, who owns those financial instruments? Certainly not the poor or middle class. The top 1 percent benefits. They’ve actually grown fabulously richer due to the plannedemic. They control the system. They must not and cannot lose regardless of dire economic conditions. Small businesses are shut down, but global corporations such as Walmart remain open—fine and dandy. It’s business as usual—the screwing of the average man.

The Monopoly Men of the 1 percent own 50 percent of the stock market as well as over half the world’s wealth. The very top 1/10th of that 1 percent are billionaires such as George Soros and Bill Gates and they think their fantastic wealth gives them the right to usher in an Orwellian police state to monitor and control us all. Bill Gates’ COVID-19 vaccine isn’t about helping people. It’s part of their plan for a global ID system. Digital elements and perhaps a chip will become mandatory. Their plannedemic has been put in place to make this happen. It’s the ‘mark of the beast.’ Your very life depends on NOT taking Bill Gates’ vaccine.

After the 9-11 attacks, ‘Big Guv’ took away our rights under the excuse of ‘keeping us safe.’ We lost many of our Fourth Amendments rights and they will not return. They convinced us to exchange our freedom and privacy for safety and they made it sound like the patriotic thing to do, hence their ‘Patriot Act.’

The Federal Reserve has existed for 107 years and during that time they stole countless trillions of dollars in wealth from average Americans. Big government stole our freedom. The 1 percent, including the Rockefeller Foundation, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, The Clinton Foundation, and now the Obama Foundation will make sure everything else gets stolen—including our very lives.

Woke Garrison understands the 1% is the source of society’s ills, and he knows the only way to stop them is to vote them into office!
