Stupid Games (Stupid Prizes)

The Bearman Radio Show is a provocative program that presents a fiercely anti-capitalist and anti-establishment perspective. The host argues that Western democracies are actually a "Capitalist Dictatorship" that uses socialist rhetoric to get elected but then creates artificial roadblocks to real change, serving the interests of the wealthy. This theme is illustrated through critiques of the Democratic Party's handling of a proposed free bus plan in New York and the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to Maria Corina Machado, who is characterized as a pro-war "puppet" of the U.S. rather than a genuine peacemaker.
The show further contends that technologies of oppression, specifically AI-powered Skydio drones tested in Gaza, are now being deployed for surveillance in American cities, representing a "proto-fascist" crackdown on dissent. This aligns with the host's central warning that tactics used against populations abroad, including violence and starvation, will eventually be used against the working class in the West. The program frames recent events, from the torture of Greta Thunberg and imprisonment of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyah to the celebration of Dick Cheney's death, as evidence of a corrupt and violent global system.
