In this episode, we dive deep into the illusion of modern politics and economics. Why are we told immigrants are the problem, while billionaires quietly hoard unimaginable wealth? We break down how media narratives, salience, and storytelling distract us from the real issue: a small elite controlling global wealth. Featuring discussion of Gary Stevenson’s insights, we explore: The rise of far-right narratives across the West How propaganda normalizes racism and division Why wealth inequality is the true root of society’s problems The illusion of choice in politics (left vs right) What a wealth tax and fair system could really change This is more than politics—it’s about human unity, awareness, and refusing to be divided. 🔗 Watch Gary Stevenson’s full video here: • Refugee Riots – Salience and Storytelling 👉 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to spread awareness.
