Juan Cadavid

Overview

Juan Cadavid [Juan Manuel Cadavid] has promoted [01:11:46] anti-Semitic conspiracy theories as an activist with the neo-Nazi Goyim Defense League (GDL). 

As of November 2021, Cadavid was affiliated [01:11:46] with the GDL, an anti-Semitic, neo-Nazi hate group and conspiracy theorist network active since at least 2018. The group stages anti-Semitic stunts across the U.S. and operates a white supremacist online video-sharing platform called GoyimTV (GTV). The GDL is led by co-founder Jon Minadeo and is headquartered in Palm Bay, Florida. 

The term “goy” in Hebrew and Yiddish is often used to refer to a non-Jew, with “goyim” being the plural form. “Goy” literally means “nation” in Hebrew.

As of March 2022, Cadavid was reportedly a leader of Legion XIV, a Southern California-based white supremacist “active club.” The “XIV” refers to the “14 words.”

In the neo-Nazi lexicon, the numeral 14 stands for the “14 Words,” a term created by infamous white supremacist David Lane, meaning: “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.

Also as of March 2022, Cadavid was reportedly located in Springville, California.

As of the same date, Cadavid reportedly used the aliases “Johnny Benitez,” “Sterling Abrade” and “Inquisitor Rex.”

11/13/2021 - GDL Anti-Semitic Banner Drop in California

On November 13, 2021, Cadavid and other GDL activists displayed three anti-Semitic banners in Irvine, California.

On November 13, 2021, Cadavid and other GDL members hung two banners promoting anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and bearing white supremacist slogans from an overpass on the 405 freeway in Irvine, California. 

One of the banners read [01:08:05]: “WHY ARE JEWS REPLACING THEIR ‘LIBERATORS’…TREACHERY OF MARXIST JEWS / HART-(((CELLER))) 1965 / TREASON BRIBERY JEWISH DECEIT / ACCESS TO WHITES IS NOT A HUMAN RIGHT.”

The Hart-Celler Act was a U.S. federal immigration law passed in 1965 that removed a policy against the immigration of certain “non-white” groups that had been in place since the 1920s.


Another banner said [01:08:11]: “HONK IF WHITE LIVES MATTER.” 

The third banner was placed [01:10:43] at the embankment alongside the overpass. It said [01:11:46]: “STOP JEWISH SUPREMACY / MEDIA BANKING GOVERNMENT… ‘ANTISEMITISM’ IS A HEALTHY SOCIETY’S IMMUNE RESPONSE TO A PARASITIC INFECTION.”

The assertion that Jews secretly control Western governments through banking and media has been traced to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, an anti-Semitic fabricated text that depicts wealthy Jews conspiring to take over the world.

At the rally, GDL activists performed [01:07:51] Nazi salutes while standing on the overpass.
