Air Date: 8–10-25

Today, Jay!, Amanda, and Deon (Erin was on vacation!) discuss:

  • How modern fascism does not look like the jarring and brutal images people think of, and the “rituals of conformity” in Nazi Germany that remind us of another era we’ve lived through
  • How despotism affects the citizen psyche and how to counter those effects
  • The importance of countering Orwellian language under fascism
  • Advice on living under authoritarianism, with a big focus on community for sanity and resistance
  • BACKSTAGE: Beyond the Algorithm (Members Only): A look at the way societies have collapsed throughout history and where the U.S. falls in the pattern
