Candace Owens, Cultural Relativism, and the USS Liberty Grift

In this wacky episode of Firing Lane, Croaky dissects the latest grift by Candace Owens, focusing on her exploitation of the USS Liberty incident and Lavon Affair to promote divisive narratives that undermine the U.S.-Israel alliance and fuel antisemitism all for the sake of driving up online engagements. But this isn’t just a history lesson—it’s a dive into the chaos of the internet, where Croaky gets in some heated exchanges with poorly informed groypers and even some possibly well-meaning critics of Israel who aren’t prepared to defend their points. The arguments spiral into chaos before Croaky reclaims the narrative with commentary on the importance of addressing antisemitic falsehoods and their impact on conservatism.
From the distortions of historical events to the Woke Right’s rejection of intellectual rigor, Croaky explores how these tactics aim to drive a wedge not only between the U.S. and Israel but also between Jews and broader Western civilization. The episode argues that conservatives must be the ones to reject these falsehoods and reaffirm the principles of truth, unity, and the Judeo-Christian heritage that binds the West together.
