Talk Back to Me

Does what you watch inspire you to greatness, or only make you anxious about the world? There's a difference between podcasts that inform us when making decisions, and people who merely complain for profit. It's not that nothing ever happens, but that that we, ourselves are passively watching the world go by.

The media we consume may not define us, but it does shape the way we think. When all we listen to is the complaining of talking heads on the internet, we are left with a sense of anxiety that gets worse the longer we go without acting. It's a vicious cycle.

Talk Back to Me

We can become lost in tribal arguments or we can look at the Minnesota ICE shooting to better understand asymmetrical warfare. In this episode we introduce a thought experiment where the line between combatant and non-combatant gets blurred.

A common tactic of asymmetrical warfare is to leverage public opinion through potentially deceptive media to garner animosity against the opposing force. Through this tactic, a militarily inferior force may cripple a superior army by inspiring domestic opposition to military action, turning the local or resident populace against the actions of the dominant force. The objective of asymmetrical warfare isn't to win a decisive victory on the battlefield, but through inspiring revolutionary action in the resident populace, legitimate or otherwise.

Talk Back to Me

Victim Narratives plague our generation. Yet history tells a longer story. Black Lives Matter, Antisemitism, and White Men now have their own victim narratives. We are aware of the presence of victim narratives, but do we understand how they hijack our desire for justice in order to justify atrocities?
