  • The Backstory on Why We Aren’t Really Free
    Oct 23 2021

    Over two and half hours of compiled material talking all about the ways we are lied to by the government and corporate state. We are told we are free which contradicts the reality most live in where they have to participate in wage slavery for the majority of the waking hours of their lives and live under a highly corrupt government with a faux democracy actually controlled, mostly out in the open, by corporations and moneyed special interests.

    Some of the topics discussed:

    - “Alternativism” - having ample distrust for government - What is a “Conspiracy Theorist” - Is competition healthy? - How we are promised freedom and given something much different - Deschooling society - A small talk by Chris Hedges (sorry) - The intentional conflating of the meaning of words to push agenda - Why so many are missing the bigger picture 

    - Ways we pretend war is not a crime

  • The Media: Selling the Myths of Power (Unwelcome Guests)
    Oct 4 2021

    In this episode the focus is on how the corporate media landscape works hand in hand with nation states in selling lies to the people while pretending to be a shield they instead serve as a weapon for the establishment.

  • Terence McKenna: Eros and the Eschaton
    Jun 24 2021

    Some Terence-isms from this talk:

    "Out of complexity emerges greater complexity"

    "What's so great about media? It's the spreading of darkness at the speed of light" (technically a quote relayed in the lecture cited from a 'someone')

    "The way to do psychedelics is at higher doses than people are used to"

    Terence gives a 2hr lecture digressing through a range of topics related to critiquing the scientific outlook, the human species' place in time on this planet, where ideas are taking us, and of course psychedelics.

    This lecture given in the early 90s from Seattle is almost as salient today as when McKenna first eloquently spoke the words.

  • Who Killed John F Kennedy and Why the Truth Still Matters
    Jun 15 2021

    The JFK assassination doesn't add up to what the Warren commission stated and there was lots of suspicious activity that possibly points to US deep state insiders who wanted JFK removed by any means.

    And if the intelligence agencies did in fact kill JFK, as I suspect they did, this truly goes to show the US isn't a democracy and no matter who gets in charge of the US government the leveraging forces behind banks and corporations will determine the fate of the US, not the people.

    This is around an hour long Michael Parenti lecture on the JFK assassination with an intro and commentary from a San Francisco radio broadcast from a few years back.

  • Fascism and its ties to Capitalism
    May 20 2021

    This is an interview with Michael Parenti from 1993 with some interesting dialogue on capitalism and how it works with and shares an underlying ideology with authoritarian systems of thought. Industrialists believe they're superior due to their exploitations of people and nature while capturing more power and money for it. And who wouldn't feel superior for taking advantage of people and turning a profit? Ahh, the American dream, impoverish third world countries so you can have more stuff, even the poorest among us have the grand opportunity to participate in this glorious profiteering.

    But it turns out that type of arrogance has a lot in common with political leaders who also believe themselves superior to the common person, which is a necessary state of mind for someone to justify sending others off to fight wars while they sit in air conditioned comfort.

    The interview runs about an hour, it's good stuff, better than most garbage coming out today, listen to it already.

    Disclaimer: Parenti, as I understand his position to be, is in favor of state run communism, whereas I disagree with all 'isms under a nation state or social hierarchy. However his critique on capitalism is supremo fantastico, that means it's pretty darn good if you were confused by all my fancy lingo.

  • The US Deep State
    Feb 11 2021

    Everyone knows politicians are puppets, but who is doing the puppeteering, how is leverage gleaned to wield power, and how did it get this way. The truth is much different than what is told to us in school and on the nightly news. Wealth inequality, a pseudo-democracy, and endless warfare are not accidents or unfortunate events, they have been planned and controlled over the centuries by those who hold power. Power rules in secret and sells an image to the public that is in stark contrast to the truth.

  • Destination Technological Dystopia
    Jan 29 2021

    Much needed argumentation regarding the problems inherent with our technology and the futility of using tech to solve our societal and ecological problems. Our techno fixes are band-aids trying to ameliorate the problems created by scientific “progress” itself and industrial capitalism. More tech will not solve our problems and has a high likelihood of making everything that’s already bad even worse.
