Bad Wolves frontman Tommy Vext has shared his views on the current state of the Black Lives Matter movement and what he believes is actually happening behind the scenes, along with his thoughts on racism and whether it actually exists.
In a six-plus minute video posted on Instagram, Vext suggests that Black Lives Matter was created by people like George Soros, the Holocaust survivor and billionaire at the center of many right-wing conspiracy theories, along with the Clinton Foundation. He maintains that they invest in Black Lives Matter to profit from media coverage.
Vext also asserts that racism in the United States is “manufactured,” saying that despite being an African-American himself, “I have not experienced actual racism.” He wrote, “There’s a huge f**king problem going on where we have turned into citizens policing other citizens over a veil of racism that doesn’t exist.”
Vext said he made the video “after weeks of research & interviews with independent journalist(s), military personnel, entertainment industry professionals, a virologist & many ex Democrats.” He added in a written message accompanying the clip, “I beg everyone who watches this to do there (sic) own research and come to their own conclusions on this issue. I could very well be wrong.”
Bad Wolves is currently sitting at Number Two on the rock radio chart with “Sober,” from the band's second album, N.A.T.I.O.N., which arrived last October.
