Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II’s Modern-Art-Gonzo-Journalism Titled, “The Deplorables Series”, Examines Black And White Race Relations Through The Eyes of The Silent-Minority-Majority in America.
“Freedom in art, freedom in society, this is the double goal towards which all consistent and logical minds must strive.” Said, Victor Hugo, the artist who experienced the 1832, June Rebellion and lived through the French Revolution. Flash forward, to 2017, during the New American Revolution, as ‘white guilt’ threatens to kill democracy, by poisoning the First Amendment, with information wars and censorship. History prepares to judge, whether Donald Trump is a messenger of the people, who exposed the world to fake news and shadow forces, within the highest levels of United States government, or a false prophet and whether Alex Jones and Victor-Hugo Vaca II are modern-art-gonzo-journalists using controversial, multi-media-performance-art in live broadcasts, shows and banned characters, like Crackhead Jesus, to raise awareness of the untold truth, about: Nathan Rothschild, The Red Shield Banks, the Federal Reserve and the September 11, 2001 attacks on America, to name a few; or whether they are a couple of hacks, who think they are artists, in the ‘Age of Fake News and Misinformation’.
This era’s Victor Hugo, is New York born, Hispanic-American artist, Victor-Hugo Vaca II, who goes by the moniker, Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo. His cryptic artwork echoes the words of his world famous French predecessor, who unwittingly provided over a century of strong marketing and global name recognition, that has steadily propelled the organic growth of the modern Victor Hugo’s controversial diary of the world on canvas, known as, modern-art-gonzo-journalism, which poetically narrates the harsh realities of life, often ignored by squeamish, for profit news outlets, with corporate agendas, through the legendary tale, of a politically incorrect character, named Crackhead Jesus, inspired by actual, documented events, in history.
The censored, modern-art-graphic-iNovel, by Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo, narrates in memes, paintings and words, a vivid account of life in modern America, through the eyes of what Democratic leadership refers to as, “needy Latinos”, as noted in the now, public record, Hillary Clinton campaign emails, that CNN actually deemed, “illegal to read”, on Wikileaks.
Les Misérables, the classic novel by Victor Hugo, about the trials and tribulations of an intertwined group of people, living during the June Rebellion, in France, was censored and banned by distribution networks. So too, Infowars, innovator, Alex Jones, is being restrained and silenced, over a century later, by a media monopoly network that includes Youtube, Facebook and Twitter.
In a free society, where individuals, like Donald Trump, find it safe to be unpopular, Victor-Hugo, the Hispanic, USNA trained artist, who created the fictional character of Crackhead Jesus, as a metaphor, for the antichrist and hypocrisy, has been censored by Instagram, Facebook, USA Today, The Palm Beach Post and MSN, to name a few. Mark Zuckerberg’s executives, sentenced Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo’s web footprint, to a swift digital death, at the peak of the provocateur’s popularity on Instagram: Seven minutes after a photo of Hillary Clinton’s Brother, Hugh Rodham, holding an autographed ‘Crackhead Jesus is coming sticker’, sitting beside the Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo, in the VIP section of a South Beach Nightclub, was posted for public consumption, days before the 2016 Presidential election the artist’s digital footprint ceased to exist.
Most recently, the Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo, was banned, permanently, from Facebook, for sharing art, deVolkskrant Headline News, and other Worldwide newspaper articles, about the United States Supreme Court ruling on the censorship of offensive trademark names, like, Crackhead Jesus. The 1st Amendment case, was turned into a racial issue, by NPR and other race-baiting-obsessed-mainstream-media-news-outlets, that claim to be liberal, yet completely ignored what Europe noticed, which is, that Crackhead Jesus is a work of art that highlights the necessity for free speech in any civil society claiming to be a democracy.
Crackhead Jesus, is “rude, disgusting, vulgar and offensive”, states a letter from the United States Trademark Office, denying the Trademark of Crackhead Jesus, a fictional protagonist, in the award-winning film, ‘Crackhead Jesus: The Movie’, a cult classic, inspired by court documented events, dubbed, ‘The Crackhead Jesus Trials’, by mainstream media.
The contentious, bellwether character,was created by Victor-Hugo, the Latin-American, multi-media artist, living in the shadows of the legend who penned, ‘Les Miserable’ and ‘The Hunchback Of Notre Dame’, during revolutionary times, of radical change, in human history, much like the Age of Donald Trump as narrated through the words of Alex Jones and ‘The Crackhead Jesus Series’ of paintings.
Both Victor Hugo and Victor-Hugo II created enduring works of art and iconic characters, representing revolutionary periods in history, graphically documenting what they witnessed of the human condition, in print and on canvas, without fear of censorship or retribution, through controversial works, manifested into groundbreaking, historical fiction, chronicling cultural genocide, by a small group of nihilists, fighting for power, against patriots, in modern times. Alex Jones has built an impressive library of passionate, raw and thought provoking content on Youtube, which is being censored, banned and threatened, with permanent deletion, by the unregulated Youtube monopoly.
Conspiracy theories are as real as Santa Clause, because no one can keep a secret. There is only truth, fiction and ignorance of facts. Alex Jones, President Trump and both Victor Hugo’s have been labeled conspiracy theorists and each of these public figures have been censored or misquoted by the mainstream press, intensifying the decline of public trust in news outlets.
Thomas Jefferson and Donald Trump warned American patriots of corrupt rulers using banks and corporations to enslave future generations with perpetual debt to create the United Slaves of America but fake news channels, like CNN, divert public attention from the need to drain the clogged, corrupt Washington D.C. swamp, by subversively feeding people bread, circus and lies, to hide and suppress impactful truths.
President Trump, Alex Jones and Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo have publicly noted that a broken U.S. justice system, is killing the American dream. For their efforts, the industry of news and information has labeled them conspiracy theorists and created grossly misleading stereotypes of their loyal fans, as being, beyond redemption, racist, nazi, deplorables, in a not so subtle effort to silence and shame common sense Americans, of all colors and creed, by mainstream media news outlets like FOX, CNN, MSNBC, USA Today, The Washington Post and The New York Times.
The Hitlerization of social commentary by mainstream media, in promoting propaganda that evil is good, lies are truth, light is dark and death is life, is so contrary to common sense, that reliable research shows, most people, including minorities, are not drinking the Jonestown Kool-Aid, handed out by the trend of white guilt, perpetrated as dogma, on mainstream media outlets, in America and Europe. In spite of any ignorance, one can witness the truth, by visiting what some conspiracy theorists call fiction, at the Dachau concentration camp, nestled in a small German town. Hidden in plain sight, the death factory, is arguably, one of the creepiest places on Earth.
One does not have to witness the manufacture of death, to realize that force feeding deception to children and the feeble minded, is a tool of evil. It is the irony of Santa Clause and global political correctness, that adults in mainstream media, manipulate innocent children with propaganda, to hide and invert the sad, objective truth, behind the lies and sins of their parents, to the detriment of individual freedom and universal human rights.
When censorship is the only resort to silencing thought, one can not forget the timeless words of Victor Hugo, who artfully noted, “There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come.”
If, as Victor Hugo writes in Les Misérables, “… knowledge is authority based on truth. Man should be ruled by knowledge.”then, by manipulating facts, a handful of wealthy elite are dictating history by deciding what is just and true, for everyone. Fake news is perverting public trust in leadership and fueling distrust in cultural society.
Victor Hugo also wrote in Les Misérables, “Conscience is the amount of inner knowledge that we possess.” Perhaps for that reason, the hyper-awareness of President Trump, Alex Jones and Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo, as prognosticators, has grown organically, in the face of censorship and upheaval, spreading through word of mouth, social media and cutting edge technology, to expose unprecedented bias, censorship and fake news in mainstream media.
Informed Hispanics and educated minorities realize corrupt leaders are trying to rewrite history by taking down statues of racist Democrats. Hypocrisy is fueling a modern civil war that ignores the current state of race relations in America in favor of throwing punches at the ghosts of our past and minorities can see right through the ignorance. Contrary to mainstream media reports, most minorities trust President Donald Trump, Alex Jones and the Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo over the fake news reported on CNN, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, NPR, The New York Times, Washington Post and other news outlets, determined to destroy democracy, for ratings and profit.
Misogynist-racist mainstream media ignores a “Needy Latino’s” warnings of toxic leadership, at the world-famous leadership laboratory, by white-washing reports of rape and abuse, but now, favors using “White guilt propaganda”, to label all people with common sense and civility, who value truth, including the “Silent Majority of Minorities”, “Needy Latino’s”and”Super-Predators”, as bigots, Nazis and fascists. The truth is, fortunately, people are not that stupid. Everyone knows civil wars and race wars, in this day and age, are total nonsense built on lies and propaganda.
Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II as seen in Miami Herald article titled, “Diary of Year In Hell”.
To believe fake news outlets, like FOX, one would have to subscribe to the incontrovertible fallacy, that anyone who voted for Trump, believes in legal immigration, Rule of Law and practices self-defense, is a racist.
The silent majority of minorities including Black and White Africans, Asians, Latinos and Muslims wonder why they are all being labeled racist, by mainstream media outlets, owned by Caucasian men, pushing the words Nazi and fascist into everyday vernacular, to describe anyone who disagrees with their greed-driven corporate-agenda; that would brainwash the feeble minded and everyday people, with common sense, to believe, as fact, that a one-hundred percent black man, named Barrack Hussein Obama, was born out of a rarely mentioned, one-hundred percent Caucasian woman’s vagina and to think otherwise, or question such logic, is racist.
The irony of Caucasian men and women, consumed with white-guilt, wearing ‘Black Lives Matter’ t-shirts, while destroying statues of racist Democrats and shouting, “Death to America”, is not lost on the silent majority of minorities, digesting uncensored footage, of suppressed reality on the Alex Jones Show, that is otherwise banned, from mainstream media news outlets, openly promoting the genocide of all white people .
“If, as Mika Brzezinski said on MSNBC, ‘Our job is to control exactly what people think.’, why am I and the silent majority of minorities, thinking, mainstream media news is race baiting, lying and withholding the whole truth from us?” – Victor-Hugo Vaca II
Alex Jones and Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo use modern-art-gonzo-journalism, to raise awareness about underreported issues like human trafficking, GPS spoofing and to sentinel the dangers of an impending censorship tsunami in the USA, fueled by toxic political correctness and a powerfully corrupt media monopoly, that threatens everyone; including the alt-right, alt-left and characters, like Crackhead Jesus and other outliers, that everyone loves to hate and cast stones at.
“Common sense is not a crime.” – Victor-Hugo Vaca II
Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II in The Miami Herald.
In 1990, the Miami Herald published an article titled, ‘Diary Of A Year In Hell’. The Miami Herald article white-washed issues of rape and abuse of minorities, at the elite U.S. Naval Academy that churns out future world leaders and suppressed warnings of toxic leadership, at the highest levels of U.S. government, in favor of dumbing down readers, at the peak of the once lauded newspaper’s circulation, with a watered down story, of name calling and hazing, that strayed far from the dangerous truth, that was silenced and suppressed but whose untold sins and memory, would have impact on the lives and future of all global citizens, in the New World Order.

Like the Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II, Rick Derringer was raised Roman Catholic and attended a private Catholic school, for eight-years, during his youth. After a time of intense personal struggle, Rick Derringer was reborn in his faith and rewrote the lyrics to, “Rock And Roll Hoochie Koo”, reflecting a less sexual and more spiritual mood:
“Couldn’t stop shouting when it first took hold.
It was an awesome night at the old church hall.
There was an old time preacher he was laying it down.
Heard the word and you know I can’t forget that sound.
Read the word, live it too.
Let the truth be seen in you.”

Rebuke Of Obama’s, “Anti-American Action”, Marks Historic Victory For September 11 Victims And Conspiracy Theorist’s, Seeking To Uncover The Truth, Behind The 9/11 Attacks On U.S. Soil, In 2001.
Thanks to pressure on government officials from alternative news outlets on the internet and public pressure from constituents and voters, as documented, in the modern-art-gonzo-journalism, fine-art, “9/11 Series” of paintings, the mysterious shroud of secrecy, behind what really happened, on September 11, 2001, often referred to as, “Conspiracy Theory”, by weak, neutered, investigative-journalists, working under severe editorial constraints, will finally be unveiled, in Court, to become historical archives for public consumption and universal introspection.
“CHAOS”, MODERN-ART-GONZO-JOURNALISM, BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II.
On September 28, 2016, The United States House of Representatives and The U.S. Senate, overwhelmingly handed the Commander In Chief, his first veto defeat, when they voted against President Obama’s attempt, to deny 9/11 victims and U.S. Citizens the right to pursue justice for acts of terrorism, committed in collusion, with terrorists, allegedly disguised as allies and home-grown terrorists, that have allegedly infiltrated the U.S. Government and creeped into the halls of the United States Justice system, spewing corruption and treason all the way up to and including, the hallowed White House, to the extreme and perilous detriment of all U.S. and civil society interests, in allegedly, knowingly, hiding and abetting, high level, foreign and domestic plots, to crush Democracy, destroy lives and kill millions of people in the New World Order.
“SEE PAST THE TRUTH”, MODERN-ART-GONZO-JOURNALISM, BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II.
The modern art graphic iNovel, “Redemption: The Story Of The Crackhead Jesus Trials“, documented, in modern-art-gonzo-journalism storyboard narration, some of the more plausible conspiracy theory and documented doubts regarding, the Twin Towers and surrounding World Trade Center Building implosions, including the infamous explanations for Building 7, which most mainstream news outlets failed to take seriously, by not producing any substantial probing reports or investigative journalism, to debunk the false narrative force fed to the 9/11 victims families and to the unconvinced and dwindling audience of newspaper and cable news network subscribers, that have declared an all time historical low, in public trust of news media, according to a 2016 Gallup poll.
“WHAT I SAW ON 9/11: WHY DO THEY HATE US?” MODERN-ART-GONZO-JOURNALISM BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II.
The 9/11 Series was created in honor of those lives lost on September 11th, 2001 and the legacy of the loved ones they left behind, who vowed to “never forget”. Immortalizing those words in works of art, honors the legacy and passion of those outliers and conspiracy theorists who are unwilling to settle for the status quo answer of, “Move on, Folks, there’s nothing to see here.”, while staring at the glaring inconsistency between what is being witnessed and what is being reported to citizens, as fact, by weak mainstream media news outlets in collusion with government information networks.
THIS WORK OF MODERN-ART-GONZO-JOURNALISM, “TITLED 9/11 DACHAU”, PREDICTED THE TERROR THREAT GERMANY IS NOW EXPERIENCING WITH THE IMMIGRATION CRISIS. (24X35) OIL PAINTING BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR- HUGO VACA II.
According to top physicists and scientists, official explanations for what happened to make skyscrapers, implode in Manhattan, at the World Trade Center, on September 11, 2001, defies the known laws of natural physics and statistical probability.
CHRISTMAS GREETING TITLED, “HAPPY EASTER”, CREATED BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II. THE WORK IS FILLED WITH NUANCES, NOT LEAST OF WHICH IS THE IRONY THAT SANTA CLAUSE, A TRUTH FED BY ADULTS TO TRUSTING CHILDREN, IS STEPPING ON THE TWIN TOWER CONSPIRACY THEORIES SURROUNDING WHAT REALLY HAPPENED ON 9/11 AT THE WORLD TRADE CENTER IN NYC. THE IMAGE IS SENT OUT EVERY YEAR AS A HOLIDAY GREETING TO FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES OF THE MAVERICK ARTIST, IN LOVING MEMORY OF THE 9/11 VICTIMS AND TO HONOR THEIR FAMILIES, IN FAVOR OF THE “NEVER FORGET” PHILOSOPHY.
The inexplicable implosion of World Trade Center Building 7, which allegedly was reported to the public by certain news outlets as having occurred, before it even happened, is described as “conspiracy theory”, by untrusted news media outlets that ignore evidence and facts in favor of copy and paste journalism, while working in collusion with corrupt government officials to mislead naive U.S. Citizens using rhetoric and hyperbole.
MODERN-ART-GONZO-JOURNALISM BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II EQUATES THE LIES TOLD BY TOBACCO COMPANIES TO THE LIES BEING TOLD BY U.S. GOVERNMENT AND PRESS, TO ALL U.S CITIZENS, REGARDING THE TRUTH BEHIND WHAT REALLY HAPPENED ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2001.
Proponents of 9/11 conspiracy theories claim there are inconsistencies in the official conclusions from government investigations and evidence that was either ignored or overlooked by, “cut and paste reporters”, who claim to be, “investigative journalists”, working in an era when public trust in news media, is at an all time low.
“MR. ANTHONY WEINER, PRESIDENT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, IS TECHNICALLY, BY DEFINITION, NOT THE FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WAS FOUNDED ON GENOCIDE AND SLAVERY.” THIS WORK OF MODERN-ART-GONZO JOURNALISM WAS CREATED BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II TO STATE THE OBVIOUS AND COUNTER THE DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICANS AFTER THE 9/11/2001 ATTACK ON U.S. SOIL.
Four in 10 Americans trust mass media. “The Lied To Generation” are even less likely to trust newspapers, TV and radio, as documented in the censored, politically incorrect, works of modern-art-gonzo-journalism by the maverick artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II.

“Why a Commander In Chief, elected to protect and serve the best interest of a nation and its people, would vote against the best interest of its people, is anyone’s guess but history will show, that on “Obama Veto Day”, the U.S. government shifted in the right direction and began working, for the people, again.” – Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II

The Undecided Voter understands that, the”Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs” article, published by Clinton’s top aide, Huma Mahmood Abedin, born in Kalamazoo, Michigan, states that more revealing dress ushered in by women’s liberation, “directly translates into unwanted results of sexual promiscuity and irresponsibility and indirectly promote violence against women.”, suggesting sexually liberated women are asking to be raped.

The Undecided Voter understands that, the Bill Clinton article published by Huma Mahmood Abedin, Hillary Clinton’s aid and the wife of Anthony Weiner states, “The crisis with Iraq has also probably benefited Clinton, serving as a good deterrent of attention from personal crises, such as his campaign funding scandals, legislative failures, or the Monica Lewinsky affair,” and “By occasionally bombing Iraq in the name of humanity, at least, he has been able to look strong and presidential.”
DURING BILL CLINTON’S PRESIDENCY, HE AND HILLARY CLINTON CAMPAIGNED TO MAKE THE ACT OF ORALLY PLEASING THE MALE GENITALIA, LEGALLY CONSIDERED, A NON-SEXUAL ACT; THUS, MANIFESTING GENERATIONS THAT DEFINE, “FELLATIO”, AS, ‘ORAL EXERCISE’, NOT SEX.
The Undecided Voter understands that, Bill Clinton’s bombing of Iraq in December 1998 was widely mocked as ‘Monica’s war’ because he ordered four days of strikes by bombers and cruise missiles at the height of his impeachment trial, during his admission of having a ‘not appropriate’ relationship with Monica Lewinsky.

DONALD TRUMP VS. HILLARY CLINTON

THE WORD RACIST HAS LOST ITS MEANING IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER.
The Undecided Voter knows the meaning of the word, RACIST, which by definition, demands a superior-inferior power relationship: Therefore, Caucasians, like Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, can be labeled “racist”; however, a Black or Hispanic person may be disdainful of, prejudiced against, or dislike a Caucasian, or all Caucasians for that matter, but a Black or Hispanic person or group, like La Raza or Black Lives Matter, cannot be labeled racist, ever.
TO DISTRACT FROM THE “HILLARY CLINTON PAY-FOR-PLAY-RIGGED- ELECTION-RACIST-DNC- EMAIL-SCANDALS” THE CLINTON MACHINE TRIES TO IGNITE A MODERN CIVIL WAR, BY LABELING SWATHS OF BLACKS AND HISPANICS, “ALT-RIGHT BIGOTS”, DURING THE 2016 TRUMP VS CLINTON WHITE HOUSE RACE.
The Undecided Voter realizes that Hillary Clinton is attempting to diminish the history and meaning of the word, “RACIST”, by politicizing racism and prejudice to mean: Anyone who is against corruption or oligarchy, as in; “If you do not vote for Hillary Clinton you are a racist, alt right, conspiracy theorist.”, which, of course, is simply not true.
THE UNDECIDED VOTER
The Undecided Voter notices Hillary Clinton would have American citizens and constituents believe conspiracy theorists are tantamount to racists.
CONSPIRACY THEORY OR FACT?
The Undecided Voter notices Hillary Clinton would have American citizens and constituents believe that Hispanics and Blacks who believe in change are racist.
ALT-RIGHT-HILLARY CLINTON WOULD HAVE EVERYONE BELIEVE THAT ALL HISPANICS ARE MEXICAN AND THAT ANY HISPANIC THAT SUPPORTS TRUMP IS RACIST OR IGNORANT.
The Undecided Voter notices that Hillary Clinton would have American citizens and constituents believe all Hispanics and Blacks who are pro-democracy and not in favor of plutocracy and oligarchy in the United States of America, are racist bigots or rapists.
ALT-RIGHT-HILLARY CLINTON WOULD HAVE PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT ALL BLACKS ARE LIKE BILL COSBY AND THAT ANY BLACK OR HISPANIC WHO VOTES FOR TRUMP IS RACIST AND IGNORANT.

The Undecided Voter notices Hillary Clinton would have American citizens and constituents believe that Hispanics and Blacks who believe 9/11 was an inside job are racist.
CONTEMPORARY ART CONSPIRACY THEORY MEME UNDERSTOOD BY EVERYONE, INCLUDING NEEDY LATINO’S AND SUPER PREDATORS.
The Undecided Voter notices that Blacks and Hispanics know very well, that not all Hispanics are Mexican and not all African-Americans are Black.
THIS WHITE MAN IS AFRICAN, FROM SANDTON, JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA. HE IS, CONVICTED MURDERER, OSCAR PISTORIUS, A.K.A. THE BLADE RUNNER. IF HE WERE TO BECOME AN AMERICAN CITIZEN, BY DEFINITION; HE WOULD BE LABELED, AN IMMIGRANT AFRICAN-AMERICAN CONVICTED OF MURDER. ACCORDING TO THE NFL, UNDER THE TOXIC LEADERSHIP OF ROGER GOODELL, ANYONE WHO STANDS FOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AND THINKS OUT LOUD THAT SOME PROFESSIONAL AFRICAN-AMERICAN ATHLETES ARE VIOLENT, IS A RACIST PERSON.
The Undecided Voter notices that there are some black Brazilians and White Mexicans that are wonderful human beings and some Brown, White, Black and Hispanic people that are rapists and murderers, which, like sexual predators and killers of any color, nationality or religious belief, are dangerous to civil society and the general public as a whole.
THE UNITED SLAVES OF AMERICA SEE PAST THE TRUTH OF RACISM AND BIGOTRY BEING PEDDLED AS POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IN AMERICA.
The Undecided Voter sees Blacks and Hispanics shouting, “No justice, no peace!”, while the United Slaves Of America demand Rule Of Law be fairly applied to all Constituents.
BLACKS, HISPANICS AND WHITES ARE ALL UNITED SLAVES OF AMERICA WHEN RULE OF LAW IS NOT APPLIED FAIRLY, AS IN THE CASE OF BARRACK HUSSEIN OBAMA AND HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON.
The Undecided Voter realizes that, being educated and informed, does not make Hispanics, Blacks or Whites radical, racist, alt-right, conspiracy-theorists.
BLACKS AND HISPANICS CAN TELL WHEN A WHITE MAN LIES TO THEM ON TELEVISION AND CALLS IT NEWS.
