In a world where Israel is headline news every day, most people are trying to interpret events through a fog of bias, misinformation, and instant reaction culture. We sat down with longtime Jerusalem-based journalist Nicole Jansezian to ask a simple question that's not simple at all: How do we know what's actually true? What unfolded was an inside look at the fractured media landscape inside Israel and the ideological forces shaping the region. Nicole helps us slow down and understand why the Middle East defies the easy categories most Westerners reach for. Israel's political divisions don't map onto America's left-right spectrum. Palestinian society is not monolithic. And both sides live with historic, cultural, and religious dynamics that rarely show up in the headlines. When we oversimplify, we miss the deeper story - and the deeper human reality. This conversation is for anyone who wants discernment in an age of propaganda. We explore why speed has replaced accuracy, why influencers often outrun truth, and why we need a long view shaped by Scripture, not by algorithms. For Christians seeking to understand Israel, this isn't just geopolitics - it's about returning to the story God has been telling since Genesis and learning to see the world the way He sees it. Key Takeaways Israel's internal political spectrum is far more complex than the American left–right divide. Headlines often frame events without context, leading to widespread misunderstanding. Influencer-driven “news” prioritizes speed and virality over verification. Propaganda is not always overt; sometimes it's subtle, soft influence that shapes perception. Ideology - religious, historic, territorial - drives Middle Eastern decisions more than economics. The media environment inside Israel is deeply divided, with competing narratives shaping public opinion. Christians must pursue discernment by slowing down, asking better questions, and grounding their understanding in Scripture.

In today's show, I sit down with Dr Peter McCullough for a deep, revelatory conversation about the ideology of vaccination, the collapse of institutional trust, and the spiritual dimension behind our culture's faith in technocratic authority. We talk through the history he uncovers in his new book, the religious motifs baked into modern public-health messaging, the psychological and political mechanisms that kept dissent suppressed, and the new evidence forcing major institutions to quietly revise long-held claims. It's a discussion about truth, power, and awakening — and how ordinary people can reclaim moral and intellectual sovereignty in an age of manufactured consensus.

There is no doubt in my mind that we, as a nation (and, across the world) are facing a moral confusion if not a complete moral crisis. And, unless righteous, bold men step up to the plate, we'll continue to see the moral decay of everything we love from our favorite institutions, to our families, and our neighborhoods, and even the threat of losing this great nation. That isn't hyperbole. Today, I am joined by John Lovell, founder of Warrior Poet Society and former Army Ranger to discuss what we as men can do about it. We talk about mercy and justice (and, how to satisfy both), why we should hate injustice, the dangers of communism and socialism, why we must unite behind Truth (with a capital T), why "happiness" is inferior to "joy," and why we should pursue peace if possible but truth at all costs. 00:00 - Introduction & Catching Up 01:20 - Why John Wrote "The Lions of Mercer" 03:49 - Justice, Fiction, and Catharsis 07:15 - The Cry for Justice 08:07 - Modern Culture and Victimhood 08:51 - Loving the Good vs. Hating the Evil 11:44 - Redemption, Failure, and Public Dogpiling 13:01 - Loyalty, Forgiveness, and Standing by Brothers 16:14 - What Is "The Good"? 18:27 - Justice, Mercy, and the Role of Christ 20:15 - Judgement, Hypocrisy, and Accountability 23:07 - Integrity and Personal Alignment 24:39 - Happiness vs. Joy 26:39 - Teaching Discipline and Long-Term Thinking 27:03 - You Can Only Replicate Who You Are 28:22 - Wrestling With Faith and Christianity 29:02 - The Dangers of Atheism & Moral Relativism 31:05 - America's Moral Foundation 32:42 - Who Decides Morality? 34:12 - Rise of Socialism & Cultural Rejection 35:38 - New York, Ideology, and Consequences 36:36 - Unity vs. Compromise 38:41 - What Makes Someone American? 39:58 - Parenting, Boyhood, and Raising Men 40:45 - Why Boyhood Resurrected Was Written 42:38 - Risk, Adventure, and Rite of Passage 46:14 - Finding Balance in Parenting 47:09 - Trust, Risk, and Leadership in Marriage 51:27 - Why Should Your Wife Trust You? 52:21 - Leadership, Submission, and Marriage Dynamics 55:49 - Biblical Structure for Marriage 59:04 - Loving Leadership and Wise Authority 01:00:54 - Closing Thoughts & Transition to IC Segment 01:01:15 - Where to Find John Lovell 01:02:13 - Q&A Teaser Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

[00:30] Tucker Carlson's Attempt to Extract the Jews From Judeo-Christian Values (40 minutes) It was long said that America and Western civilization were founded on the Judeo-Christian ethic. Now there is an attempt to remove the “Judeo” from that equation. Is that possible? [40:00] Abrahamic Promises (15 minutes) Two great promises were made to the patriarch Abraham. Later, those promises were split between two sons of Israel: Joseph and Judah. Are these promises still in effect today?
Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”Feeling pressured to pick between Socialism and Capitalism? We challenge that trap and make a case for a third way that takes human dignity seriously, starts in the heart, and rebuilds culture from the ground up. We walk through why many young people gravitate toward socialism when family and schools fail them, and why unconstrained capitalism—when severed from God and moral law—leaves the soul hungry and communities brittle. Then we chart a different path rooted in a Christian vision of freedom ordered to the good, where love of God flows into love of neighbor, and where formation shapes the kind of people who can actually sustain a free society.You'll hear hard critiques—of socialism and hypercapitalism's nihilism—paired with hopeful, concrete steps: prayer that grounds the day, the sacraments that renew the heart, small groups that build accountability, and local action that serves the poor, protects life, and strengthens communities.We also discuss the Claymore battle plan as a practical map for spiritual formation and cultural rebuilding. The goal isn't outrage; it's forming men and women who can love well, raise families, start businesses with integrity, and anchor parishes that become bright centers of mercy and truth. If you're tired of false choices and hungry for a life that unites faith, work, and citizenship, this is your invitation to begin. Subscribe, share this episode with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review with one habit you'll start this week to live the third way.Read "Directing Our Passions and Desires to a Love that is Beautiful" Here are the links to Jack's Substack and X https://x.com/JP2RenewalCheck out the Podcast on YouTubeContact us: info@jp2renew.orgSupport the show

THROWBACK Where do our political ideologies come from? What are their origins? Should our Christian faith influence our politics? Let's discuss... Don't @ us. Original Publish date: 2018-12-16 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
You have an ideology whether you know it or not. Not political. We're not going there. I'm talking about your personal rulebook. The boundaries you set. The values you stand for. Who you actually are when nobody's watching. If you haven't decided who you are, the world will decide for you. They'll tell you who you're going to be and that's how you'll get treated. I created something years ago called a Who I Am document. It's my operating manual. My personal constitution. It establishes what I believe and serves as my foundation for growth and change. Featured Story A client went political in the first 30 seconds of our group coaching call. What's a guy to do when that happens? I let it go for about 30 seconds then closed it off. But by the end of the call, something became clear. She's so stuck in who she thinks she is that she won't listen to anybody else. I don't understand that concept. I know who I am. I have my own values. But I'm open to just about anything. You have a better way to lose weight than mine? I'm not going to defend my way. I'll listen and take yours if it works better. That's the difference between knowing who you are and being stuck in who you think you are. Important Points If you don't decide who you are, the world decides for you and that determines how you get treated every single day. Your personal ideology is your rulebook for life including how you see yourself, how you respond to situations, and who you hang out with. Writing a Who I Am document forces you to be honest about who you really are, not who you think you are or want to be. Memorable Quotes "If you haven't decided what you're all about, then everybody else is just going to decide what you're all about and that's how you're going to get treated." "You hang out with somebody that doesn't share your values? You're compromising. You're now becoming them." "You can't be a grown ass adult if you don't know who you are, can you?" Scott's Three-Step Approach Document who you really are by writing down how you see yourself, how others see you, and how you'd like to be seen. Define your non-negotiables including the values people must share to be in your life and how you respond in different situations. Track yourself daily to discover who you really are versus who you think you are because the answers will surprise you. Chapter Notes 1:05 - Personal ideology: it's about you not politics 1:56 - Do you really know who you are? 3:04 - Ideology defined: what you stand for in the world 4:05 - Creating my Who I Am document years ago 5:03 - Three questions that reveal everything about you 7:12 - Who you hang out with defines who you become 8:43 - Daily awareness diary tracks the real you Connect With Me Search for the Daily Boost on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify Email: support@motivationtomove.com Main Website: https://motivationtomove.com YouTube: https://youtube.com/dailyboostpodcast Instagram: @heyscottsmith Facebook Page: https://facebook.com/motivationtomove Facebook Group: https://DailyBoostPodcast.com/facebook Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, we discuss the firing of an FBI trainee over an LGBTQ+ flag and the broader tensions surrounding free speech, impartiality, and government workplaces. We examine conflicting messages from Trump and J.D. Vance about the state of the economy, along with the role tariffs and consumer sentiment play in shaping public perceptions. We highlight the “foolishness of the week,” involving a MAGA supporter accused of staging a hate crime, and we explore new polling that reveals surprising levels of national consensus on political violence, facts versus opinions, multiculturalism, and the influence of wealthy donors. We also break down what Americans really agree on, why those shared beliefs matter, and how they shape the health of our democratic system. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:29 FBI Fires Agent Over LGBTQ Flag Dispute 02:39 Political Neutrality and Ideology in Law Enforcement 04:48 Trump's Economic Messaging vs. Consumer Sentiment 07:38 J.D.

There are many reasons why parents or guardians choose to homeschool their children for some portion or all of their educational years. This can range from a child having a disability or neurodiversity, concerns about the quality of education, to other topics like moral or religious conflict with traditional schools. Ryan Stollar shared the story of his experiences as a homeschooled child of an Evangelical family upbringing. He also talks about some of the trauma that he has experienced or witnessed from homeschooling ideologies, including sexual and/or physical abuse. Ryan's childhood included physical punishments from his parents, consistent with church doctrine. “There were teachers in evangelicalism who promoted how to raise and train children. And they always include corporal punishment,” he said. Ryan included that these punishments drove a wedge between him and his parents. He also noted that as he grew older and began speaking with other homeschooled children, he began to realize how bad some others had it concerning inadequate education, misogyny towards women's roles, and other forms of abuse. This was when he decided to act in the name of future homeschool children to prevent their abuse. Ryan is the author of the book The Kingdom of Children: A Liberation Theology. He co-founded the website Homeschoolers Anonymous, where many people who have been homeschooled share their stories of experiences and trauma. If you care about children, and worry about what is happening in America, this is an interview you will want to listen to and share. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
For a podcast audience hungry for substance on the UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) topic, the audio file “UAP_Secrecy_Versus_Democratic_Transparency” is a must-listen. This is not a discussion about grainy videos or speculative alien biology; it is a rigorous, high-level debate tackling the profound conflict at the heart of the disclosure movement: the ethical and strategic battle between absolute transparency and managed secrecy.The format is a classic point-counterpoint, and the two main speakers are exceptionally well-matched. Speaker 1 argues from an unshakeable ethical foundation: the public has a democratic right to truths it has already funded. They frame the 80-year secrecy apparatus as an “undemocratic failure” and a “criminal enterprise” that prioritizes contractor profit and institutional self-preservation over public accountability. Their indictment is powerful, pointing to the intentional deception around official UAP videos and the systematic gutting of legislative efforts like the Schumer Amendment as proof of a system operating in bad faith.Speaker 2, conversely, presents a compelling case for strategic caution. They elevate the conversation beyond simple national security, introducing the critical concept of “ontological shock.” Citing historical precedents like the Brookings Report, they argue that revealing a reality that invalidates our core understanding of physics and human identity could lead to societal disintegration. For them, secrecy is a form of “strategic civil defense” against a technology they chillingly describe as an “atomic weapon on steroids.”The audio truly shines when it delves into the mechanics of secrecy. The discussion around the Department of Energy's classification authority under the Atomic Energy Act is a standout moment. Speaker 2 explains how this legal framework provides a “higher level of secrecy than even the Pentagon,” creating a “deep black apparatus” superior to the elected government. Speaker 1 brilliantly counters that this is a systemic abuse of power, weaponizing the law to hide taxpayer-funded technology.The production quality is clean and focused, allowing the complex arguments to take center stage. The occasional interjections from moderators (Speaker 3 & 4) are well-timed, asking for clarifications on technical jargon like “warp bubble,” which keeps the debate accessible without dumbing it down.Ultimately, this podcast succeeds because both speakers agree on the fundamental, mind-bending reality of the phenomenon—exotic technology, non-human intelligence, and its civilization-altering potential. This shared premise forces the debate into a thrilling clash of core values: the inviolable right to knowledge versus the paternalistic duty to prevent collapse. It leaves the listener not with easy answers, but with a deep appreciation for the staggering stakes involved, making UAP_Secrecy_Versus_Democratic_Transparency” an essential and intellectually stimulating hour for anyone serious about this topic.Grant Cameron Bookshttps://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B00EFGCJRC
Jesse Arm (X, Substack) is the Vice President of External Affairs at the Manhattan Institute. He joins the podcast to talk about his recent article, “Ezra Klein's Blindspot.” Along with Richard Hanania, he discusses whether there really is a pro-abundance future for the Democrats. The conversation involves a comparison of the two parties, and a debate over what is happening on both sides of the political spectrum. Hanania mentions self-driving cars as a perfect experiment to test which side is more likely to embrace progress, and thus far it has been red states that have been more open to the technology. Hanania and Arm disagree strongly about JD Vance, and what he says about the future of the GOP. Recently, Rod Dreher made waves by suggesting that perhaps 30% to 40% of Republican staffers are Groypers. As Arm's job involves dealing with this class of people, he has particular insight into that issue. Hanania is interested in not only whether they are personally fans of Nick Fuentes, but also what their views are about Ronald Reagan and how they think about political issues more generally.Arm also explains the dynamics of the recent NYC mayoral race. How did Mamdani end up winning? And why couldn't the Republicans field a serious challenger? The conversation provides much to consider for those who believe that embracing markets and new technology is the best way to achieve economic growth but feel alienated from both major parties right now. Arm and Hanania also handicap the 2028 Democratic race, discussing how Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez might rise to the top due to the moderate wing being split, in the same way that Biden had a lane open to him in 2020.

PREVIEW Autocrats Versus Democrats: The Rise of Illiberal Ideologies Professor Michael McFaul Professor Michael McFaul discusses the growing global appeal of autocrat models, including Putinism's illiberal populist nationalism in Europe and the state-run economic model favored by China in the developing world. He notes that bureaucracy and veto points stifle growth and cause inefficiency in the U.S. Although democracy remains popular, its appeal is less potent than it was thirty years ago.
5/8 Michael McFaul's book Autocrats Versus Democrats argues that Putinism is driven by anti-Western ideology, making Putin a risk-taker, and McFaul believes the US erred by lacking a robust response and failing to provide arms after the 2014 Crimea invasion, stressing that helping Ukraine win is essential to inspire Russian democrats. He asserts that the appeal of autocracy is growing globally and advises that the US must align democracies against autocrats while advocating for human rights, citing the need to support imprisoned publisher Jimmy Lai. Long-term strategy requires the US and its allies to unite, as they are collectively stronger economically and militarily than autocracies, and McFaulstrongly recommends attracting international talent by reversing restrictive immigration policies, calling it a great strength the US is currently losing. 1913

Health care strategist Dana Y. Lujan discusses her article "Why direct primary care (DPC) models fail." Dana argues that the DPC community's obsession with "purity" is missing the point, stating that these models don't fail over ideology, they fail because of bad math. She uses the University of Houston's $1 million clinic failure as a prime example of a "fundamental market mismatch," where a DPC model was placed in a low-income area that couldn't sustain its membership fees (a ~70 percent revenue deficit). Dana also debunks the myth that institutions can't run successful DPC programs, citing CHI Health and Johns Hopkins as proof that financial sustainability and market fit are the true keys. This episode explores the critical difference between what's legally permissible and what's operationally sustainable, and why the DPC conversation must shift from philosophy to execution.

Our society lives in shattered glass—no shared concept of human value, souls, reality, gender, or nations. Nietzsche's predicted consequences from God's death have destroyed the old world completely. We've gone insane but remain wealthy enough to mask it. Since high school, I've known the adult worldview was an empty bluff destined to collapse. After years cross-referencing solutions, I've found something that could actually work. Here's what I discovered.

In today's polarized culture, the Church is at a dangerous crossroads. Will we be shaped by theology rooted in God's Word—or by ideologies crafted by man? In this episode of Perspectives with Joseph Mattera, I unpack the critical differences between theology and ideology—and why confusing the two can lead the Church into error, division, and idolatry. From political tribalism to cultural echo chambers, many Christians are unknowingly filtering Scripture through the lens of ideology rather than submitting to divine truth. But God is calling His people back to a Christ-centered, Spirit-led, biblically grounded theology that transcends parties and platforms.
Hola!, and welcome back to Spanish Loops. As always we bring you the human stories hiding behind history, and today's chapter is a cracker: Ramón Franco, the daring aviator and paradoxical brother of General Francisco Franco. Ramón shot to fame after commanding the 1926 Plus Ultra transatlantic flight, a feat that made him a celebrity and symbol of modern Spain. But Ramón's politics and personality couldn't have been more different from his sibling's. He publicly clashed with the Primo de Rivera dictatorship, embraced republican and left-leaning causes in the 1930s, and lived a life full of bold gestures and sharp contradictions. This episode unpacks his achievements in aviation, his fiery confrontations with establishment figures, and his brief but intense political career during the tumultuous years of the Second Republic. We also examine the tragic, contested circumstances of his death: Ramón died when his seaplane crashed on October 28, 1938, at a time when his brother was rising to supreme power during the Civil War, a family rupture with resonances that last to this day. Tune in as we weave data over a fresh narration to tell the story of a man who defied expectation and became one of Spain's most unforgettable, and misunderstood, historical figures. Listen, reflect, and decide what history should remember today.
The discussion centers on recent debates surrounding sexuality, moral theology, and cultural attitudes toward truth. The speakers examine claims about sexual identity, the influence of ideological messaging, and the pressures—social, familial, and cultural—that shape people's beliefs. They argue that misunderstandings of science, theology, and human freedom contribute to widespread confusion about sexuality and moral behavior. They also explore how personal desires, fear of conflict, and resistance to moral obligations lead individuals to reject inconvenient truths. Topics include the interplay between autonomy, love, freedom, and truth; the impact of media and peer pressure; the contradictions within modern sexual ideologies; and the importance of grounded moral reasoning. The conversation concludes by emphasizing the need for clarity, compassion, and adherence to truth when discussing sexuality and human dignity. This is the last interview Dr. Morse shared with Father Rob Jack before his passing.
In this episode, I sit down with Zahava Feldstein, creator of Rabbi's Daughter Rebellion, who describes herself as a “reformed anti-Zionist Jew.” We trace her journey from growing up as a rabbi's kid in the American South and thriving in feminist Jewish day school, to becoming a staunch anti-Zionist at Scripps College through SJP/JVP organizing, critical race theory and ethnic studies — and then the moment it all began to crack when she sat down with her dad and the Encyclopedia Judaica and re-encountered Jewish history on its own terms.Along the way, we dig into why so many Jewish students are pulled into anti-Zionist spaces, why Hillel and Chabad feel so different on campus, how critical race theory gets mis-applied to Jews and Israel, and what it might look like to create psychologically safe spaces for Jewish students who are questioning Zionism without losing their Judaism.In this conversation, we discuss:Zahava's story: rabbi's daughter, feminist day school kid, then SJP/JVP organizerHow Palestinian ethnography, ethnic studies, and critical race theory shaped her anti-ZionismThe moment she realized her professors' frameworks didn't know or care about JewsWhy she now calls herself a “reformed anti-Zionist” rather than a simple Zionist or anti-ZionistThe California ethnic studies mandate, CRT, and where Jews fit (or don't)How anti-Zionist spaces use “anti-normalization” to shun Hillel and campus rabbisWhy Chabad often feels “apolitical” and safe for radical left anti-Zionist JewsThe difference between criticizing Israel and erasing Jewish history and peoplehood“Right to exist” vs “need to exist” — reframing the core question about IsraelHow Jewish education often fails students on Israel, power, race, and empireWhy so many Jewish studies departments are unequipped to answer ethnic-studies-style attacks on JewsAdvice for rabbis, parents, and educators trying to support Jewish students on campus todayIf you're a Jewish high school or college student, a parent, rabbi, educator, Hillel/Chabad professional, or just someone trying to understand anti-Zionism, Zionism, and critical race theory in the post–October 7 campus world, this episode is for you.➡️ See More From Zahava FeldsteinIf you want to dive deeper into Zahava's work, writing, and research, check out the links below:
Western Miscalculation and the Core Problem of Russia's Dominance Ideology. Professor Eugene Finkelargues that debates about Ukraine joining NATO or the EU are secondary, as the core problem remains Russia's deeply rooted ideological belief that it must control Ukraine. Western powers, including the US and Southern and Central Europe, have repeatedly misread Russia as transactional and rational, failing to recognize it as a revanchist neo-imperialist power. This miscalculation led to poor decision-making and a lack of preparation. Eastern European countries, who understood the enduring Russian threat, were wrongly dismissed. The professor concludes by noting his grandfather's brave refusal of a KGB recruitment offer after World War II. Guest: Professor Eugene Finkel. 1855

What is God's will for humanity? Is it found in Genesis 1 and 2, or does Genesis 3 reveal something deeper? In this episode, Mike and Tim tackle "The Mystery of God's Will" by unpacking Genesis 3 and exploring how God's ideal will contrasts with the realities of a fallen world. With a focus on themes like cruciformity, faith, and navigating cultural challenges, the conversation dives into questions about suffering, the role of ideologies, and how theology shapes our understanding of justice and faith. The hosts discuss how God's will operates within suboptimal conditions, the complexities of prayer, and how Jesus challenges simplistic moral frameworks. They also examine the role of the church in society and the intersections of faith and politics, offering insights on how Christians can engage with cultural issues while holding space for mystery, tension, and humility in their faith. Join the conversation as they challenge common assumptions about God's nature, human suffering, and the role of theology in understanding our world.

World-class historian and Hoover Institution senior fellowVictor Davis Hanson joins Jillian for a masterclass on how crony capitalism, socialism, communism, and religion are intertwined — and why the stakes right now could not be higher A renowned classicist who has spent his life studying war, empires, and the rise and fall of civilizations takes us inside the mind of Karl Marx — who he was, what he believed, and how his theories morphed into the socialist and communist movements that reshaped the world and still haunt us today. We examine the deadly pendulum swing between crony capitalism and communism: how unrestrained, corrupt capitalism breeds the resentment that fuels Marxist revolutions, and how those revolutions inevitably give rise to regimes just as oppressive — if not worse.Victor then takes us back to the teachings of Christ and the religious roots of Western morality to reveal how our concepts of justice, equality, the individual, and the state all began as religious ideals — and how religion itself has been weaponized throughout history for both extraordinary good and staggering harm.From the early church to medieval Europe… from the French and Russian Revolutions, to Mao, the Cold War, Mamdani and the cultural battles of today… Victor walks us through the entire arc of history to explain how we arrived at this moment: a West that is exhausted, divided, and once again flirting with ideologies that have already burned the world down.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
New York City's mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani defines himself as a democratic socialist, yet his critics have seized on his leftist identity to paint him as an extremist. Carlo Invernizzi-Accetti, professor of political science and executive director of the Moynihan Center at The City College of New York, and author of 20 Years of Rage: How Resentment Took the Place of Politics (Mondadori, 2024) explains the core principles of the various strains of thought on the left to paint a clearer picture of what Mamdani believes in and how he'll govern as mayor.
With so much political baggage attached to labels like communism, socialism and Marxism, we look at the terminology, and how much the distinctions matter. On Today's Show:Carlo Invernizzi-Accetti, professor of political science and executive director of the Moynihan Center at The City College of New York, and author of 20 Years of Rage: How Resentment Took the Place of Politics (Mondadori, 2024), explains the core principles of the various strains of thought on the left.
In this episode, Breht speaks with Dr. Richard Wolin, author of Heidegger in Ruins: Between Philosophy and Ideology, about the dark entanglement between Martin Heidegger's philosophy and his lifelong commitment to National Socialism. Heidegger is often hailed as the most important philosopher of the 20th century, yet his work was deeply shaped by the reactionary politics of his time. Wolin explains how Heidegger's central ideas -- Being, Dasein, authenticity, rootedness, and the "decline of the West" -- became intertwined with fascist notions of destiny, hierarchy, and belonging. They discuss the long history of attempts to sanitize Heidegger's record, what the Black Notebooks reveal about his true convictions, the interwar period in Germany and the conservative revolution, Heidegger's spiritual racism, and how the same civilizational despair and longing for renewal echo through today's far-right political movements. This conversation explores how the search for meaning and authenticity, when divorced from solidarity and democracy, can turn toward reactionary myth-making, hierarchical exclusion, and fascist authoritarianism.
