Mark Dice
Mark Dice, also known as John Conner (either or both may be pseudonymous—verification is lacking), is an author, culture jammer, and YouTuber based in San Diego, California.
Dice/Conner either founded or took over (sources differ) an organization,[1] variously called The Resistance for Christ, The Christian Resistance or The Resistance, which professes certain beliefs that the illuminati, freemasons, Skull and Bones and Bohemian Grove control the world, orchestrated the September 11, 2001 attacks as a pretext for the war on terrorism and a police state and secretly worship lucifer and has been reported to "flood the airwaves of call-in radio and television shows"[2] to promote them.
He has called for the Georgia Guidestones to be removed from public property,[2][3] protested a Jessica Simpson music video,[1] called for a boycott of the VeriChip,[1][4] called for a boycott of an Oliver Stone film,[5] called for Duke University to change the name of its sports team,[6] called for rapper 50 Cent to stop wearing a cross,[7] and claimed that Tom Cruise worships satan.[8] A gossip column reported[9] that he had announced a party to celebrate a Paris Hilton jail sentence, but was escorted out by security for videotaping his activities. (note: read the entire TMZ article it shows the video of dice getting kicked out and has an UPDATE about him at the party.) [10]
He markets an assortment of products on a website which, according to The Inquirer's Nick Farrell,[1] is "full of tin foil hat wearing paranoia" that is "carried off in an amusing way."
