Drawing on decades of activism and deep historical insight, she challenges despair, celebrates solidarity, and reminds us that even in dark times, “we are always in the middle of the story.” From climate crisis to the power of protest, from Silicon Valley dystopia to unexpected beauty in community, this conversation is a galvanizing reminder: the future is unwritten — and it's ours to shape.Buy No Straight Road Takes You There: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/no-straight-road-takes-you-there*REBECCA SOLNIT is the author of more than twenty books, including Orwell's Roses, which was shortlisted for the Orwell Prize for Political Writing, Recollections of My Non-Existence, which was longlisted for the 2021 Orwell Prize for Political Writing and shortlisted for the James Tait Black Award, The Faraway Nearby, Wanderlust, A Field Guide to Getting Lost, River of Shadows and A Paradise Built in Hell.

Part 1 of our double episode about Jack Hilton, a working-class author, World War I veteran, unemployed movement organiser, and trade union activist from Rochdale, north-west England.For this episode, we spoke to Jack Chadwick whose literary detective work rescued Hilton from almost total obscurity. We discussed Hilton's life growing up in Rochdale's slums, starting work at nine years old, and his activism in the National Unemployed Workers' Movement. We also talked about how he began writing, how Caliban Shrieks was celebrated within the London literary scene, and his long-term (and complex) relationship to George Orwell.More informationBuy Caliban Shrieks from an independent bookshopFull show notes including sources, photos, and eventually a full transcript are available on our website: https://workingclasshistory.com/podcast/wcl12-13-jack-hilton-rochdale-caliban/AcknowledgementsImage: Jack Hilton.

Bienvenidos, una vez más, a vuestro podcast favorito. Y si es la primera vez que nos escuchas, bienvenido a tu próximo programa favorito. En Buscadores de la Verdad hemos abordado el cine en más de una ocasión. No es casualidad. Dentro de nuestro blog técnico —preocupado.com— creamos una sección llamada Vídeos Es Clave, cuyo título es un guiño a aquel mítico programa llamado La Clave, donde se hablaba de cine… y de sus circunstancias. Muy lejos de la televisión basura actual, La Clave era un espacio donde reinaban la reflexión y el contenido de calidad. Porque el cine, amigos, no es simplemente entretenimiento. Como anunciamos en el título de este episodio: el cine es mucho más. Es un arte que trasciende la distracción, una herramienta narrativa que nos permite reír, llorar, reflexionar y soñar. Nos conecta con lo más profundo de nuestra psique, nos transporta a mundos imposibles y, al mismo tiempo, nos confronta con las realidades más crudas. Es espejo, es mapa, es lenguaje de lo humano. Cada película es un lienzo donde se proyectan culturas, ideologías y anhelos. Pero también, y esto es clave en nuestra mirada, el cine puede ser —y muchas veces es— un medio de programación y control social. En manos equivocadas, se convierte en un instrumento de adoctrinamiento y control. En el gran hermano de Orwell que no solo observa sino que manipula a su antojo las mentes débiles. Hablamos aquí de un concepto tan inquietante como real: la programación predictiva. A través de narrativas cuidadosamente elaboradas, el cine puede sembrar en el inconsciente colectivo ideas, escenarios y valores destinados a normalizar conductas futuras, erosionando el pensamiento crítico y preparando a la sociedad para aceptar lo inaceptable. Y con esa mirada hemos analizado ya varias películas en esta sección de nuestro proyecto. La primera fue El destino de Júpiter (Jupiter Ascending), una cinta de ciencia ficción escrita y dirigida por las hermanas Wachowski, las mismas creadoras de Matrix. La película se centra en una humilde muchacha (Mila Kunis) que se gana la vida limpiando baños, y se entera de que tiene un gran destino genético. En esta película habría tres capas, la primera y más obvia que muestra simplemente un cuento de hadas espacial, una intermedia donde se nos hablaría de entidades no humanas y se las relacionaría con civilizaciones ancestrales de la Tierra; y una tercera, aún más críptica, en la que se abordan temas como la soberanía personal, la ley marítima y las entidades legales representadas en letras mayúsculas. Un auténtico puzzle simbólico En la segunda película que analizamos, 12 monos, hablamos de como el satanismo era la capa mas profunda que nos mostraba la película. Toda la película es una burla a la creencia cristiana y de otras religiones monoteístas en un único Dios todopoderoso. En una escena clave, el personaje sugiere la existencia de una jerarquía de seres malignos que operan como secretarios de entidades superiores. Se dice sin ambages: “Ademas ya he avisado, ya se ocupan de mi. ¿Qué quieres decir?- pregunta Bruce Willis He contactado con ciertos subordinados, espíritus malignos, secretarios de secretarios y otros varios servidores que contactaran con mi padre. Y cuando mi padre sepa que estoy en un sitio asi para que me trasladen a uno de esos tugurios elegantes…” Termina diciendo “Mi padre es Dios… yo venero a mi padre”. Una inversión blasfema de la cosmovisión cristiana. La película, lejos de ser una simple historia de ciencia ficción distópica, es una crítica velada y perversa a la fe monoteísta. La tercera película elegida fue Blade Runner, una de mis favoritas, desde luego un claro referente dentro del mundo de los universos distópicos y de los mundos post apocalípticos. Esta película no recibió toda la atención que hubiera merecido por dos motivos; el primero es que se estreno dos semanas mas tarde del debut en taquilla de E.T., el extraterrestre, ocurrido el 11 de junio de 1982. El segundo motivo es que lo que realmente esconde esta película no debía ser promocionado a las masas como el tema ET que empiezo a ser ampliamente difundido en la década de los 80 a través de películas y series. Pero Blade Runner no es una película cualquiera: es una meditación profunda sobre el transhumanismo, la eugenesia, y el anhelo de trascendencia. En sus capas más profundas se esconde una búsqueda mística de Dios, la llamada “iluminación”. Una pregunta filosófica sobre lo que significa ser humano en boca de un ser artificial. El análisis de Eyes Wide Shut, la inquietante última película de Kubrick, fue tan profundo que dio origen a mi segundo libro: Ojos bien abiertos. Muchos se quedan en su superficie de thriller erótico o crítica elitista, pero nosotros vamos más allá. Esta obra revela rituales, símbolos y estructuras de poder que operan en la sombra. Desde los Rothschild hasta el programa MK Ultra, pasando por referencias al orfismo, el camino del druida y del mago: esta película es una llave hacia lo oculto. Nuestros análisis van más allá de la superficie de la pantalla, desentrañando significados ocultos que el director ha tejido en capas más profundas, invisibles a simple vista. Consideramos que esta obra se estructura en tres niveles principales, de lo más evidente a lo más enigmático: la primera capa revela conspiraciones de grupos de poder ocultos, como los Rothschild, que operan en las sombras; la segunda explora la operatividad de estos grupos, incluyendo técnicas de control como el MK Ultra y rituales de sexo y sangre; finalmente, la tercera capa, la más profunda, nos sumerge en el camino del druida, el poeta y el mago, evocando el misticismo del orfismo. Esta estructura invita a una reflexión crítica sobre las intenciones subyacentes de la narrativa y su impacto en la percepción del espectador. La quinta película que hemos analizado en nuestra sección Videos Es Clave ha sido El Hoyo. Aqui analizamos el simbolismo esotérico de los personajes llegando a la conclusión de que tanto Goreng como Trimagasi eran arquetipos del Quijote: Goreng (Don Quijote) y Trimagasi (Sancho Panza) que representaban a un iniciado y a un maestro masón respectivamente, de origen español. Que además Trimagasi podría simbolizar a Hermes Trismegisto, personaje con nombre griego y sincrético del dios egipcio del conocimiento Toth, creador del hermetismo (Tabla esmeralda) así como de Hermes el dios olímpico mensajero, de las fronteras y los viajeros que las cruzan, del ingenio y del comercio en general, de la astucia, de los ladrones y los mentirosos, y el que guía las almas al inframundo, al Hades, posteriormente llamado Mercurio en la mitología romana. (Caduceo). No es casualidad que el caduceo aparezca en más de un lugar en el film. Este análisis lo hicimos junto a Jordi que en paz descanse y podéis encontrar los videos sobre todas estas películas en la descripción de este podcast en Ivoox. También hemos analizado otras películas como una sobre la trata infantil llamada Sound of Freedom cuyo análisis dejaba en claro que tan solo pretendían colocar un velo entre la triste verdad que rodea el abuso ritual infantil y lo que se muestra en la película, que un traficante de drogas de poca monta era el malo malísimo detrás de los secuestros y abusos de niños. Lejos de exponer la verdad cruda del abuso ritual, parece más bien funcionar como una cortina de humo: un entretenimiento anestésico que disfraza la verdadera magnitud del problema. Y por si fuera poco, me atreví incluso con Rashōmon, la obra maestra de Kurosawa, dejando un pequeño hilo sobre su carga simbólica. Porque hasta en los silencios del cine japonés hay gritos que invitan a la verdad. Amamos el arte. Amamos el cine. Y amamos hablar de lo que se oculta tras la cámara. Por eso, hoy nos acompaña Carlos, más conocido como Cinefilia Cult, un experto apasionado por un arte que no puede ni debe medirse en números. Puntuar una película es reducirla a una estadística. El cine se vive, se siente, se analiza. Pero no se cuantifica. El cine es uno de los lenguajes de la imaginación, donde cada fotograma, sonido o silencio lleva una intención que no puede cuantificarse sin perder su magia. En lugar de números, el cine merece ser explorado a través de conversaciones, interpretaciones y experiencias personales, que capturan mejor su riqueza y profundidad inefable. Bienvenido, Carlos, a Buscadores de la verdad. Hoy, más que cine. ………………………………………………………………………………………. En tu perfil vemos que tu película favorita es Ran (1985) otra película de Kurosawa, junto a clásicos como el film de Kapra “Vive como quieras” (1938) y Los amantes crucificados una película de culto japonesa (1954) ¿Qué elementos te conectan con estos films y qué te atrae de esa época cinematográfica? ………………………………………………………………………………………. Has marcado 363 películas vistas, con 60 este año ¿Hay algún tema o tendencia en tu cine de 2025 que te haya sorprendido especialmente? ………………………………………………………………………………………. En 2024 dejaste una reseña de Dragonkeeper, una coproducción España‑China, destacando su “impecable factura visual”. ¿Podrías profundizar en cómo ves la evolución de la animación internacional y su integración en el cine español actual? ………………………………………………………………………………………. También vi que puntúas Dune: Part Two con un comentario crítico sobre el montaje y el tratamiento a los personajes ¿Qué crees que quedó por hacer bien en esta continuación y qué opinas que aún funciona del estilo de Villeneuve? ………………………………………………………………………………………. Nuestros análisis en Buscadores de la Verdad destacan las capas profundas en películas como Blade Runner o Eyes Wide Shut. ¿Tú también empleas este enfoque de mirar “tras la superficie” en las películas que ves y reseñas? Y si es así ¿Puedes darnos un ejemplo reciente? Hay quienes consideran la cinefilia (cinephilia) una forma de vida. ¿Qué significa para ti ser cinefílico? ¿Qué te aporta esta comunidad? ………………………………………………………………………………………. ¿Cómo equilibras tu gusto por producciones clásicas con tu pasión por descubrir simbologías ocultas en el cine moderno? ………………………………………………………………………………………. Sueles escribir críticas detalladas —por ejemplo, dijiste de Pearl (2022) que “puedes casi percibir los olores”. ¿Cuál es tu proceso a la hora de redactar una reseña: cómo sintetizas lo sensorial y lo narrativo? ………………………………………………………………………………………. Explicanos un poco que es eso de Letterboxd y por que lo utilizas. Con tu uso intensivo de Letterboxd —más de 300 películas, reseñas y listas—, ¿qué consejos darías a quienes empiezan a usar la plataforma para profundizar en el cine? ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Aldous Huxley imaginó un mundo controlado por el placer. Orwell, uno dominado por el miedo. En este episodio comparo Un mundo feliz y 1984 para responder una pregunta incómoda: ¿cuál se parece más a la realidad que vivimos?https://linktr.ee/bibliotequeando

El proper dissabte 14 de juny al migdia tindrà lloc al port d'Alcubierre -en els límits de les províncies de Saragossa i Osca- l'acte de descobriment d'una placa commemorativa dedicada als set milicians sitgetans que moriren a la casella de Camineros, víctimes d'una emboscada de les tropes franquistes el mes d'octubre de 1936. La cerimònia, organitzada per l'Associació de recuperació de la memòria històrica d'Aragó, en el marc de les commemoracions del 'Dia de Orwell de Aragón', comptarà amb la presència del president del Grup d'Estudis Sitgetans, Jordi Milà, i del regidor de cultura, Albert Oliver-Rodés, entre d'altres familiars dels milicians, els cossos dels quals romanen desapareguts. En el seu llibre 'Memòries d'un poble silenciós', Jordi Milà ja es referí a aquests milicians sitgetans i a la necessitat de restituir-ne la memòria històrica. Amb ell hem parlat sobre qui van ser, com varen arribar a la serra d'Alcubierre, i com fou l'episodi en el qual trobaren la mort. L'entrada Una placa recordarà els milicians sitgetans que moriren l’octubre de 1936 a la serra d’Alcubierre ha aparegut primer a Radio Maricel.

Bienvenidos a un nuevo Spaces en directo. Como si yo fuese el protagonista de Ellos Viven hoy vengo a soltarles una entradilla en forma de arenga. Ponte cómodo y abre tus oídos. ¡Abrelos porque te voy a contar la verdad que no quieren que sepas! Todo este rollo del nihilismo, la gente actuando como niños, obsesionada con memes estúpidos, videos de TikTok y cosas sin importancia vital, no es casualidad. No, no, no. Es un plan orquestado, una red tejida por las élites para mantenernos dormidos, distraídos y sin cuestionar nada. Déjame que te lo explique todo, pieza por pieza, porque esto es más grande de lo que parece. ¡Escucha bien, porque hasta la palabra "nihilista" tiene un trasfondo que te hace pensar quién quiere que pensemos en "nada"! La palabra viene del latín nihil, que significa "nada", puro vacío, la ausencia total de significado. Pero no te engañes, esto no es solo un capricho lingüístico, ¡es una pista de cómo nos han manipulado para abrazar el vacío! El término empezó a tomar forma en el siglo XVIII, pero se puso de moda en el XIX, cuando filósofos, escritores y, sí, ciertas élites comenzaron a jugar con la idea de que nada importa, que no hay verdad, ni Dios, ni propósito. La raíz latina nihil ya se usaba en la Antigua Roma, en textos legales y filosóficos, para hablar de cosas que no existían o carecían de valor. Pero el nihilismo como lo conocemos hoy empezó a gestarse con los pensadores modernos, sobre todo en Europa. Uno de los primeros en darle forma fue Friedrich Nietzsche, el filósofo alemán que en 1880 gritó a los cuatro vientos que "Dios ha muerto" (En Así hablo Zarathustra, 1883). Nietzsche no estaba celebrando, ¡estaba advirtiendo! Decía que sin un sistema de valores (como la religión o la moral tradicional), la humanidad caería en un abismo donde nada tiene sentido, un vacío que llamó nihilismo. Pero aquí viene lo sospechoso: mientras Nietzsche alertaba sobre el peligro, otros parecían encantados con la idea. ¿Quiénes? Los que querían una sociedad sin rumbo, fácil de controlar. El término "nihilista" se popularizó antes de Nietzsche, en Rusia, con los nihilistas rusos de los 1860s, un grupo de intelectuales y revolucionarios que rechazaban toda autoridad: el zar, la iglesia, la familia, todo. El escritor Iván Turguénev los inmortalizó en su novela Padres e hijos (1862), donde describe a un personaje, Bazarov, como un "nihilista" que no cree en nada, solo en la ciencia y la destrucción del viejo orden. Pero, ¿sabes qué? Algunos dicen que estos nihilistas no eran solo rebeldes, sino peones de un juego mayor. Potencias extranjeras y grupos subversivos financiaban ideas radicales para desestabilizar Rusia. ¿Te suena familiar? Es el mismo truco que usan hoy: siembra el caos, haz que la gente crea en "nada", y tendrás un rebaño sin dirección. Y aquí entra la conspiración: la palabra "nihilista" no solo describe a los que no creen en nada, sino que se ha convertido en una herramienta para los que quieren que vivas en el vacío. Fíjate en cómo la cultura moderna, desde Hollywood hasta las redes sociales, glorifica la idea de que "nada importa". ¿Por qué? Porque un nihilista no lucha, no cuestiona, no se organiza. Solo consume, se ríe de memes absurdos y se pierde en la matrix digital. Pero sigamos hablando de la antigua Roma ya que en la actualidad vivimos en un circo moderno, una versión 2.0 del "panem et circenses" de los romanos. En la antigua Roma, los emperadores daban pan y espectáculos para que el pueblo no se revelara. Hoy, las élites globales —los banqueros, los dueños de las Big Tech, los políticos corruptos— hacen lo mismo, pero con esteroides. Nos bombardean con Netflix, tendencias virales, influencers haciendo retos absurdos y realities que no aportan nada. ¿Por qué? Porque mientras estamos pegados al celular viendo un gato bailando o discutiendo sobre el último drama de Twitter, no estamos pensando en los problemas reales: la desigualdad, el control económico, las guerras que financian a escondidas. Esto no es nuevo, ¿sabes? Ya lo decían tipos como Theodor Adorno, un filósofo alemán de la Escuela de Frankfurt, que en los años 40 y 50 escribió sobre la "industria cultural". Este hombre, junto a su colega Max Horkheimer, advirtió que los medios masivos (cine, radio, prensa) no eran solo entretenimiento, sino herramientas para estandarizar el pensamiento y mantener a las masas pasivas. Adorno decía que la cultura pop nos convierte en consumidores obedientes, adictos a lo superficial, mientras las élites manipulan desde las sombras. Y eso fue antes de internet, ¡imagínate ahora con algoritmos que saben exactamente qué mostrarte para mantenerte enganchado! Pero no se queda ahí. Esto va más allá del entretenimiento. Hay una ingeniería social en marcha, un plan deliberado para degradar nuestra cultura y hacernos más tontos, más infantiles. Mira cómo han transformado la educación: menos filosofía, menos historia crítica, menos lógica, y más énfasis en cosas vagas como "habilidades socioemocionales" o en fomentar la cultura del grupo, o lo que es lo mismo, del rebaño. ¿Quién está detrás? Algunos señalan a fundaciones globalistas como la Rockefeller o la Open Society de George Soros, que supuestamente financian cambios curriculares para suavizar las mentes. Y no olvidemos a Hollywood y la música pop: letras vacías, películas que glorifican el hedonismo, la violencia o el individualismo extremo. Todo esto nos empuja a un nihilismo puro: si nada importa, si no hay valores profundos, ¿para qué luchar? Mejor nos quedamos viendo videos de 15 segundos en TikTok, riéndonos de cosas absurdas mientras el mundo se desmorona. Adorno lo vio venir y lo puso en practica con la puesta en marcha de grupos como Los Beatles: él decía que la cultura de masas nos aliena, nos hace olvidar quiénes somos y nos convierte en engranajes de una máquina capitalista que solo beneficia a los de arriba. Y hablando de tecnología, ¡aquí viene lo gordo! Las redes sociales no son un accidente, son armas psicológicas. Los algoritmos de plataformas como Instagram, TikTok o YouTube están diseñados para hackear tu cerebro. ¿Sabías que empresas como Meta contratan a neurocientíficos para perfeccionar sus sistemas? Es verdad, hay estudios, como los de Tristan Harris, exdiseñador de Google, que revelan cómo estas plataformas manipulan la dopamina, el químico del placer, para mantenerte enganchado. Cada "like", cada notificación, cada video absurdo que no puedes parar de ver es parte de un diseño para que no pienses, no reflexiones, no crezcas. Esto crea una sociedad infantil, incapaz de concentrarse más de 10 segundos, obsesionada con lo instantáneo. ¿Y quién controla estas empresas? Los mismos multimillonarios que financian agendas globales, como los de Silicon Valley o el Foro Económico Mundial. ¿Coincidencia? No lo creo. Ahora, conecta los puntos: este nihilismo, esta despreocupación, no es solo cultural, es un declive inducido. Hay teorías que dicen que todo esto forma parte de un plan mayor, algo como el "Nuevo Orden Mundial" o “El Gran Reset". El Foro Económico Mundial, liderado por tipos como Klaus Schwab, habla abiertamente de un "gran reseteo" para cambiar la economía y la sociedad. ¿Y qué mejor manera de controlar a la gente que debilitándola? Destruyen los valores tradicionales —familia, comunidad, religión— y los reemplazan con un individualismo vacío, un "sé tú mismo" que en realidad significa "consume y no pienses". Sin un propósito mayor, la gente cae en el nihilismo, se vuelve cínica, se ríe de todo, y se refugia en cosas absurdas como coleccionar Funko Pops o pelear en redes por tonterías. Esto no es espontáneo, ¡es un diseño! Mi teoría es que hay fuerzas más oscuras, no solo las mal llamadas élites, sino algo espiritual, como una guerra contra el alma humana. Esas elites psicopatas que Pedro Bustamente denomino elites psicopatocraticas. Mira lo que pasó con el arte: antes inspiraba, ahora tenemos "arte contemporáneo" que parece un chiste, como un plátano pegado a una pared vendido por millones. Eso no es arte, es una burla para mantenernos confundidos. En el informe Iron Mountain de 1966 que pidió el presiente Kennedy antes de ser asesinado se explicaba perfectamente como la degradación del arte fue planifica por la CIA, allí se decia: “También resulta instructivo observar que el carácter de la cultura de una sociedad mantiene una estrecha relación con su potencial para hacer la guerra dentro del contexto de su época. No es ningún accidente que la actual "explosión cultural" en los Estados Unidos tenga lugar en una época marcada por un desarrollo inusualmente rápido de la tecnología bélica. Esta relación se reconoce más generalmente de lo que dejaría entrever la literatura especializada en este tema. Por ejemplo, muchos artistas y autores están comenzando a expresar su preocupación acerca de las opciones de creatividad limitadas que prevén en un mundo sin guerras, quellos creen o esperan estará pronto entre nosotros. Actualmente, se están preparando para esta posibilidad realizando experimentaciones sin precedentes con formas carentes de sentido; sus intereses en años recientes se han focalizado crecientemente en diseños abstractos, emociones gratuitas, ocurrencias fortuitas y secuencias sin relación.” Y por si fuera poco, la sobrecarga de información nos ha fracturado. La posverdad, la polarización, las fake news: todo eso es parte del plan. En 2016, Oxford nombró "posverdad" como la palabra del año, describiéndola como un mundo donde los hechos objetivos importan menos que las emociones y las narrativas. ¿Y quién gana con esto? Los que controlan los medios y las plataformas. Si no confías en nada, si todo es un meme, entonces no hay verdad, no hay lucha, solo nihilismo. La gente se cansa, se rinde, y se entretiene con cosas absurdas porque es más fácil que enfrentar un mundo roto. Es como dijo Neil Postman en su libro Divirtiéndonos hasta la muerte (1985): “no nos están esclavizando con cadenas, sino con entretenimiento. Nos están matando con risas.” Entonces, ¿qué tenemos? Un plan maestro: usan los medios para distraernos, la tecnología para adormecernos, la educación para debilitarnos y la cultura para infantilizarnos. Todo para que no levantemos la cabeza y veamos quién mueve los hilos. La educación como decía Bertrand Rusell «estará bien confinada a la clase gobernante y al populacho no se le permitirá saber como estas convicciones fueron generadas«. ¿Los nombres? Algunos señalan a los Rockefeller, los Rothschild, el Foro Económico Mundial, las Big Tech. Yo sostengo que es más grande, que hay poderes que ni conocemos. Pero la prueba está a la vista: una sociedad nihilista, obsesionada con lo absurdo, que no sabe ni quién es Theodor Adorno ni por qué su advertencia sobre la cultura de masas es más relevante que nunca. Despierta, ¡esto no es un juego! Si quieres pruebas, mira las redes, busca los documentos filtrados de fundaciones globalistas publicados por Maria Desiluminate, Nuevo Desorden Mundial, o Desmontando a Babylon, o lee a Adorno, a Orwell, a Bertrand Ruseel o a Postman. Todo está ahí, pero tienes que querer verlo. ¡Despertad, porque nos tienen distraídos como marionetas en su circo! Las élites, desde los días de Adorno y su Escuela de Frankfurt hasta los titanes de Silicon Valley, han tejido un plan maestro: usar la industria cultural, los algoritmos dopamínicos y la posverdad para sumirnos en un nihilismo vacío. Nos inundan con entretenimientos absurdos —memes, TikToks, dramas de redes— para mantenernos infantiles, despreocupados y ciegos ante su control. La palabra "nihilista", nacida del latín nihil y moldeada por los rebeldes rusos y Nietzsche, es su arma secreta: nos convierten en creyentes de la "nada", mientras ellos mueven los hilos del poder desde las sombras. ………………………………………………………………………………………. ¡Agarraos porque os voy a contar una verdad oculta que los poderosos no quieren que sepais! Los sabateanos y el frankismo son la clave para entender cómo el mundo se sumió en el caos nihilista que vivimos hoy. Los sabateanos o sabateos son los discípulos del autoproclamado mesías judío Shabtai Tzvi, nacido en el imperio otomano, el cual se convirtió al Islam en 1666…¿bonita fecha, no creéis? Son partidarios de la Cábala y del Zohar y afirman la existencia de una ley oculta y secreta, los sabateos interpretaron la conversión de su líder como un mandamiento para practicar una religión oculta y secreta. Un tipo que en el siglo XVII se autoproclamó Mesías y dijo que la redención llegaba rompiendo todas las reglas. ¿Cumplir la Torá? ¡Pff, para qué! Él y sus seguidores sabateanos creían que el pecado era el camino a la salvación, una movida que ya olía a rebelión contra todo lo sagrado. Cuando Tzvi se convirtió al islam bajo presión otomana, sus seguidores más fieles, los Dönmeh, se volvieron criptojudíos, viviendo una doble vida mientras planeaban en las sombras. Esto no es teoría, ¡es historia pura que podéis rastrear! Luego aparece Jacob Frank, el verdadero cerebro maquiavélico. Este tipo, en el siglo XVIII, llevó el sabateanismo a otro nivel, diciendo que era el sucesor de Tzvi. Frank no solo quería romper las reglas, quería destruirlas por completo. Su lema era que el mundo debía caer en una "saturación de pecado" para forzar la llegada del Mesías. ¿Rituales raros? Claro, como esa movida en Lanškroun en 1756, donde sus seguidores bailaban alrededor de una mujer semidesnuda, diciendo que era la Shekhinah. Este es un término hebreo que viene de la raíz shajan ("habitar") y, en el judaísmo, se refiere a la presencia divina de Dios en el mundo, o a que una persona esta habitada por un espíritu, vamos que esta poseída. ¡Pura locura! Frank y sus frankistas se convirtieron al cristianismo en masa, pero no te engañes, era una fachada. En secreto, seguían con sus creencias locas, infiltrándose en la sociedad europea como una red oculta. Si cruzamos el charco hasta España y tenemos un siglo antes a los alumbrados, una secta mística del siglo XVI que también olía a subversión. Estos tipos, que surgieron alrededor de 1511 en Castilla, creían en un contacto directo con Dios a través de éxtasis y visiones, despreciando los sacramentos y la autoridad de la Iglesia. Decían que, al estar "iluminados" por Dios, no podían pecar, sin importar lo que hicieran. ¿Os suena familiar? Su idea de "dejamiento" (entregarse pasivamente a Dios) se parece mucho a la transgresión deliberada de Tzvi. La Inquisición los persiguió a muerte, encarcelando a líderes como Isabel de la Cruz y Pedro Ruiz de Alcaraz en 1524, porque veían en ellos un peligro herético con tintes protestantes. Pero, ¿y si los alumbrados eran un eco temprano de la misma mentalidad antinomiana que Tzvi predicaría después? ¡Es como si alguien estuviera sembrando la semilla de la rebelión espiritual en distintos frentes! Y aquí entra el jesuitismo, la gran pieza que conecta todo en esta conspiración. La Compañía de Jesús, fundada en 1540 por Ignacio de Loyola, se creó para ser la vanguardia de la Contrarreforma, combatiendo herejías como el protestantismo y, sí, los alumbrados. Pero esperad, ¡aquí hay algo turbio! Los jesuitas eran famosos por su disciplina, su infiltración en las élites y su "obediencia ciega", algo que algunos conspiranoicos dicen que se parece sospechosamente a las tácticas de los Dönmeh sabateanos, que se colaban en otras religiones mientras mantenían sus creencias secretas. Es famoso el tema de la monista secreta, un texto que habla de las técnicas de infiltración que usaban y usan los jesuitas. Donde esta permitido hacer cualquier maldad con tal de salirse con la suya. Curiosamente, Ignacio de Loyola fue investigado por la Inquisición en 1527 por posible simpatía con los alumbrados, aunque salió libre. ¿Coincidencia? ¡Yo digo que no! Quizás los jesuitas, mientras combatían herejías, aprendieron un par de trucos de los alumbrados sobre manipulación y control espiritual, usándolos para su propia agenda de poder. Ahora, aquí viene lo gordo: esta idea de "redención a través del pecado" es el germen del nihilismo que hoy nos tiene atrapados. Frank no solo quería romper las leyes judías, sino TODAS las leyes morales. ¿Os suena familiar? ¡Es el eco de Nietzsche gritando que "Dios ha muerto"! La filosofía de Nietzsche, con su rechazo a los valores tradicionales y su idea de que no hay verdad absoluta, no salió de la nada. Bebió directo de esa fuente envenenada del frankismo, que decía que destruir el orden moral era el camino a la libertad. Los frankistas, con su desprecio por el Talmud y las normas, fueron los primeros en decir que nada importa, que todo vale si sirve al "gran plan". ¡Eso es nihilismo puro, amigos! Y no creais que esto se quedó en el siglo XVIII. Los frankistas, con sus conversiones falsas al cristianismo, se metieron en las élites de Europa. Hay quienes dicen que familias poderosas, incluso en América, tienen raíces frankistas. ¿Nombres como Brandeis o Frankfurter te dicen algo? No es casualidad. Estos tipos sembraron las semillas de una ideología que destruye cualquier sentido de propósito, dejando un vacío que hoy llamamos nihilismo moderno. Desde el marxismo cultural hasta los movimientos que promueven el caos moral, todo tiene el ADN de esa "involución" que Frank predicaba. No era una regresión biológica, ¡era un plan para sumir al mundo en la anarquía espiritual! Lo más loco es cómo lo hicieron: los frankistas no solo querían pecar, querían que el mundo entero se hundiera en el pecado. Frank decía que el caos moral forzaría la redención, pero, ¿y si la redención nunca llega? Lo que queda es un mundo donde nadie cree en nada, donde los valores se derrumban. Eso es exactamente lo que Nietzsche teorizó después, y lo que hoy vemos en la cultura: un vacío donde todo es relativo, donde no hay bien ni mal. El solipsismo satanista que impera por todas partes. Los frankistas, con sus rituales y su infiltración, fueron los arquitectos de esta mentalidad. No lo digo yo, ¡lo dicen los hechos históricos! No es ninguna sorpresa que el frankismo tuviera hasta 50,000 seguidores en su momento, muchos en Polonia, donde se mezclaron con la nobleza católica. Desde ahí, su influencia se extendió como un virus. Si queréis pruebas, leed los primeros trabajos de Gershom Scholem, que destripó el sabateanismo y mostró cómo sus ideas eran una bomba de relojería. La evolución del estudio de Scholem sobre el sabbateanismo sirve como prueba de la creciente reticencia de Scholem y otros muchos a criticar el proyecto sionista tras el Holocausto y la Segunda Guerra Mundial y de su giro gradual desde la marginalidad hacia convicciones políticas más dominantes. En resumen, los sabateanos y Frank armaron el escenario para el nihilismo actual. Su plan de "redención a través del pecado" no era misticismo inocente, era una declaración de guerra contra los valores. Nietzsche solo tomó el testigo y lo gritó más alto. Hoy, cuando ves una sociedad que no cree en nada, que celebra la transgresión por la transgresión, estás viendo el legado de Frank y sus locos. ¡Despierta, que el nihilismo no es casualidad, es un plan que lleva siglos en marcha! ………………………………………………………………………………………. ¡Y hasta aquí el podcast de hoy, amigos! Hemos desentrañado cómo las distracciones modernas y la infantilización de la sociedad nos mantienen en una danza perpetua de entretenimiento vacío, lejos de la verdad incómoda. Como decía Orwell, “el pueblo que elige corruptos, impostores, ladrones y traidores no es víctima, sino cómplice”. Y en la misma línea, Russell nos advertía que “la mayoría de las personas preferirían morir antes que pensar; de hecho, muchas lo hacen”. Así que, mientras el mundo nos lanza notificaciones y pantallas para anestesiarnos, recordad: despertad, cuestionad, pensad. Pero, claro, si todo esto os parece demasiado... ¡hoy no, mañana! ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Hello and Welcome to Colonial Outcasts, the anti-imperialist podcast that your MAGA uncle might hate less today than he did yesterday, as that entire cult of personality is fragmenting yet again with the advent of this new Palantir deal to create a national database that is unprecedented in our history. It will include:- Tax filings- Student Debt- Social Security- Bank Accounts- Medical Claims- Immigration statusNo previous database system has ever centralized this much personal info across various federal agencies. If you, like me, are a critic of China's social credit system (totally valid to disagree with me), just know that in the Hands of Palantir, a data analysis company founded in 2003, partially backed by the CIA's venture capital arm, In-Q-Tel, the new American edition is going to be so much more repressive and targeted.

In this week's episode, we dive into George Orwell's Animal Farm, exploring how the promise of equality in communism morphs into an oppressive, unequal state. We examine how the pigs' rise to power through propaganda, fear, and betrayal mirrors real-world authoritarianism, serving as a cautionary tale for today's political landscape. We'll discuss how understanding Animal Farm empowers us to recognise and resist manipulation by questioning narratives and holding leaders accountable. Additionally, we uncover the novel's deeper commentary on the erosion of trust, revealing how corrupted ideals fracture communities and individual integrity. Join us to discover how Orwell's allegory remains a vital guide for safeguarding truth and collective hope against the dangers of power and deceit. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that connects Animal Farm's lessons to modern challenges and the enduring fight for justice and accountability.I trust that this episode, will prove beneficial to you, your loved ones, and the broader world. As always, I will be sharing several thought-provoking concepts for you to ponder and apply in real-life scenarios in the upcoming days.

George Orwells dystopischer Roman „1984“ gehört zu den berühmtesten Büchern des 20. Jahrhunderts und wird immer dann herangezogen, wenn totalitäre Entwicklungen in der Gesellschaft beschrieben werden sollen. Ob es um Sprachpolitik, militärische Propaganda oder die öffentliche Meinung geht – immer findet man dazu eine passende Stelle in dem Klassiker aus dem Jahre 1949. Was aber lernen wir über das Wirtschaftssystem in dem fiktiven Staat? Welche Form von Herrschaft zeigt Orwell? Wo liegen die Schwächen und Stärken des Textes, der wie kaum ein anderer auch die Populärkultur prägte? Begriffe wie Neusprech oder Doppeldenk taugen noch immer, um herrschende Ideologien besser zu erkennen. In der neuen Folge von „Wohlstand für Alle“-Literatur sprechen Ole Nymoen und Wolfgang M. Schmitt nicht nur über den Roman, sondern auch über ein Vorwort, das der ehemalige Wirtschaftsminister Robert Habeck zu einer deutschen Neuübersetzung beisteuerte.

Welcome to our monthly book discussion series hosted by Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) and me, Phil Svitek! This month, we dive into 1984 by George Orwell—a haunting dystopian novel that remains startlingly relevant more than 75 years after its release.We follow Winston Smith, a quiet rebel in a world where the Party controls truth, history, language, and even thought. As Winston struggles to hold onto his sense of reality and love in a society ruled by surveillance, propaganda, and fear, Orwell forces us to confront the dangers of authoritarianism and the erosion of individual freedom.In this conversation, we unpack the novel's central ideas—from Newspeak, doublethink, and Big Brother to the manipulation of memory and meaning. We also explore Orwell's personal history, his political awakening, and why this story continues to resonate with readers facing censorship, misinformation, and political polarization today.Join us as we break down Orwell's major themes, timeless warnings, and literary legacy—and don't forget to share your takeaways in the comments!Upcoming Reads:-Avatar: The Last Airbender – The Reckoning of Roku by Randy Ribay (June 2025)-TBD (July 2025)-Directed By by James Burrows (August 2025)

Időközben azonban a magyarországi sajtóval nagyot fordult a világ, így az újságírók beszélgetését újraterveztük, és önálló eseményként is meghirdetjük. A közéleti átláthatóságról szóló törvénytervezet árnyékában a meghívott újságírókkal csak érintőlegesen fogunk beszélni a sajtó globális válságáról. Ehelyett tágabb perspektívában, a magyar határokon túl is kiterjedt tapasztalatokkal bíró újságírókkal fogjuk vizsgálni az aktuális magyar és régiós nyomást, ami az újságírásra nehezedik. Beszélünk arról, hogyan jutottunk el az elsősorban a 2010-es sajtótörvénnyel kezdődő, majd a gazdasági kivéreztetéssel folytatódó magyarországi sajtóviszonyoktól a május 14-én napvilágra került ügynöktörvényig. A Magyarországon és Romániában is dolgozó Parászka Boróka és a Vajdaságban a Szabad Szó című közéleti lapot szerkesztő Tőke János segítségével kitekintünk arra, hogy vannak-e a magyarországihoz hasonló törekvések a demokratikus viszonyok határait ugyancsak feszegető szomszédos országokban, Romániában és Szerbiában. Ennek különös jelentőséget adhat, hogy május 18-án lezajlik a romániai választások második fordulója. Határon túli magyar újságíró résztvevőink pedig segíthetnek megérteni, milyen közönsége van az anyaországi sajtónak a határon túli magyarság körében. A 24.hu közéleti-politikai újságírója, Bánszegi Rebeka első kézből tud majd beszélni arról, milyen tapasztalatokat gyűjtött magyarországi újságíróként a romániai választásokon. Egyúttal érzékeltetni tudja, milyen hatással van a kiszámíthatatlanság egy klasszikus „napilapos” működésű szerkesztőség életére. Kerekasztalunk másik két résztvevője, Kálmán Attila, az Investigate Europe uniós oknyomozó műhely újságírója, valamint az adatújságírás egyik hazai zászlóvivője, a Lakmusz főszerkesztője, Teczár Szilárd segítenek értékelni, hogy a Halász János egyéni indítványára benyújtott ügynöktörvény hogyan befolyásolhatja Magyarország uniós tagságát, és megvizsgáljuk azt is, teremthetnek-e az uniós szervek jogkört arra, hogy – amint azt Karácsony Gergely főpolgármester indítványozta – hatékonyan és gyorsan beavatkozzanak a magyarországi sajtószabadság védelmében. Megvizsgáljuk, hogyan erősödtek meg az újságírói együttműködések az Európai Unióban, miért támogatják az uniós hivatalok pályázatok kiírásával a tagállamokban működő szabad sajtót. Van-e ennek a finanszírozási formának hatása a tagországok médiájának működésére, és van-e – legalább részben – igazság a kormány azon vádjaiban, hogy ez beavatkozást jelent a sajtó és azon keresztül a közélet működésébe. Hogyan értelmezhető egyáltalán a globális gyakorlatban az a kitétel, hogy nem befolyásolhatja egy sajtótermék a közéleti diskurzust, amikor annak végső soron, akárcsak Orwell 1984, vagy Huxley Szép új világ című regényének, alapvető lényege, hogy azt befolyásolja?https://biboszabadegyetem.org/kurzus/media-es-valosag-viszonya-a-21-szazadban/

Ep. 316: Robert Daniels on Eddington, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, Raoul Peck's Orwell Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. I'm back at the Cannes Film Festival to talk about the highlights with another all-star cast of guests. This time I'm very pleased to sit down with Robert Daniels, associate editor at RogerEbert.com and a columnist and reviewer at The New York Times, among other writing. We focus on a few films spanning a wide variety of form and genre: Eddington (Ari Aster), Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning (Christopher McQuarrie), and the documentary Orwell: 2+5=5 (Raoul Peck).

This debate came about after I wrote an essay, “Trans Women Are Trans Women,” in response to Matthew Adelstein's essay, “Why I Think Trans Women Are Women.” I wanted to have the conversation for two reasons.First, I'm a student of philosophy and former university lecturer of logic, debate, writing, and public speaking — basically, how to think and express those thoughts — so for me, civil discourse is a personal discipline much like chess or martial arts, two of my favorite pastimes. But it's also a benefit to society because if more of us openly engaged in civil discourse over contentious issues by playing the game rugby-rough but, like all good ruggers, able to grab beers after — we'd be better off.Second, because this slogan represents the most extremist form of woke ideology, alongside “math is racist,” and as I wrote, it's profoundly dangerous:Orwell had a word for the process of distorting basic truths in order to further some political agenda or enforce ideological conformity. He called it doublespeak. I often call it ontological gaslighting, like the scene in the book in which the Party finally gets Winston to accept that two plus two is five. This is how the book ends, because this is the final and greatest defeat of the human soul by an authoritarian regime. Namely, getting someone to deny an objective fact. As Winston writes in his diary early in the novel, “Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.” To put that the other way around, slavery is the impulse to say that two plus two makes five. If that is accepted, all else follows.Two plus two is five. Silence is violence. Math is racist. Men are women. Adelstein claims long hair or painted nails makes one more of a woman, and having enough feminine traits actually makes one a woman. But divorced from the female, such traits are no longer feminine and cannot confer womanhood. Samurai had long hair and Babylonian men painted their nails before battle.He also defines “woman” socially but treats the phrase “A trans woman is a woman” in a vacuum. Yet trans writer Alyssa Ferguson, trans athlete Veronic Ivy, trans biologist Julia Serano, and trans philosophers Sophie Chappell and Talia Betcher claim trans women are female. Adelstein makes abstract assertions about a political slogan, like saying Sieg Heil simply means “Hail victory” or jihad just means “struggle,” but we all know that if we'd decided to call adult human females “apples” instead of “women,” we'd be here debating whether trans women are apples.That's because what trans women identify as only has meaning for them insofar as it denotes female. As I explain in the debate, trans women don't identify as men who think they're women. They identify as women who are women. Even Adelstein's own definition of “woman” is fundamentally grounded in the female, as you'll see. That's why I said if we agree trans women are not females, as he and I do up front, the rest is definitional word play, which is where the debate immediately goes after that.

Something passed between them: the faintest hint of a common destiny. Does this describe Paul and Arlo's first meeting, or the first time Farmer Hoggett sets eyes on the piglet known as Babe? What's the difference? For a new That Was Then, the boys are joined by perennial guest Eric Sipple to discuss Chris Noonan's 1995 film Babe. Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, the unlikely Best Picture nominee set a new standard for animal VFX and influenced a generation of vegetarians and vegans. The gang discusses the film's surprising macabre side, its view of destiny, how it compares to Orwell's Animal Farm, the contentious relationship between Noonan and co-writer/producer/shadow director (?) George Miller, and much more.   NEXT: drop some acid, find your spiritual center, and join us for a Four-Color Flashback exploring the first three volumes of Alejandro Jodorowsky & Mœbius' The Incal.     BREAKDOWN 00:01:22  -  Intro / Banter 00:03:38  -  That Was Then: 1995 00:24:20  -  Babe 01:47:28  -  Outro / Next   MUSIC “Pigs on the Wing” by Pink Floyd, Animals (1977) “Piggies” by the Beatles, The Beatles (1968)   GOBBLEDYCARES National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/  Abortion Funds in Every State: https://bit.ly/AbortionFundsTwitter Support AAPI communities and those affected by anti-Asian violence: https://www.gofundme.com/c/act/stop-aapi-hate Support the AAPI Civic Engagement Fund: https://aapifund.org/ Support Black Lives Matter and find anti-racism resources: https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/ The Trevor Project provides information and support to LGBTQ youth: thetrevorproject.org Trans Lifeline: https://translifeline.org/  National Center for Transgender Equality: transequality.org Help teachers and classrooms in need: https://www.donorschoose.org/ Do your part to remove the burden of medical debt for individuals, families, and veterans: https://www.unduemedicaldebt.org/  Register to vote: https://vote.gov/

John and Sarah discuss the UK's sharp shift right on immigration, Sinn Fein's George Orwell moment on transgender issues, Sinead Gibney's painted nails, and the role of porn in the Hawes family murders.

Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Alan Minskoff talk about Laila Lalami's dystopian novel, set in an uncomfortably near future. It's narrated by an exceptional Frankie Corzo, who voices an innocent woman incarcerated for her dreams. Much of the narrative is the protagonist Sara's thoughts, feelings, and reactions. The novel is reminiscent of Kafka and Orwell, had they lived in the Internet Age. Sara and her cohorts' mysterious plight seem frighteningly possible. This eloquently written, Earphones Award-winning audiobook lingers with the listener.   Read our review of the audiobook at our website Published by Random House Audio Discover thousands of audiobook reviews and more at AudioFile's website Learn more about your ad choices.

Orwell napsal, že „kdo ovládá minulost, ovládá budoucnost. Kdo ovládá přítomnost, ovládá také minulost.“ V posledních týdnech jsme byli svědky toho, jak si někteří politici vytahují z historie symboly a události, aby jimi zdůvodnili své politické kroky.Minulý týden na pražském náměstí Republiky a nedalekém Staroměstském náměstí demonstrovaly proruské politické strany. První z nich měla podtitul demonstrace „Za urovnání vztahů s Ruskou federací.“ Na demonstraci mluvil také bývalý politik z devadesátých let Miroslav Sládek. Na jeho příběhu je možné popsat, jak se posunula politika. Tento zakladatel českého populismu byl vždy primárně protiněmecký, stejně jako většina radikálních stran z okraje společnosti. Dnes vidí hlavní zlo v Evropské unii a naopak vyzdvihuje dobré vztahy s Ruskem.Ještě výraznější posun se odehrál na Slovensku. Svou cestou na oslavy výročí konce války v Moskvě premiér Fico jen zvýraznil svou proruskou politiku, která je raritní v celé Evropě. Slučuje v sobě fašistické a komunistické tradice a směřuje slovenskou zahraniční politiku na Východ.Fico nikdy nedělal konzistentní zahraniční politiku, ta vždycky byla jen odleskem politiky vnitřní, které všechno přizpůsoboval. Z jeho kroků lze vyčíst, že počítá s předčasnými volbami a svou obhajobou ruských zájmů chce na svou stranu přitáhnout voliče ze Slovenské národní strany a Republiky. Celé Slovensko tím však vtahuje do izolace.

Sara Reginella"Le guerre che ti vendono"Manipolazione e propaganda in Ucraina e altrovePrefazione di Luciano CanforaEdizioni Dedalowww.edizionidedalo.itUn libro che analizza il “marketing” di ogni guerra, attraverso testimonianze sul campo, per permettere al lettore di capire i meccanismi all'origine della propaganda sui conflitti bellici.Analizzando la guerra in Ucraina, Sara Reginella – psicoterapeuta e reporter, che documenta il conflitto dalle sue origini, con quattro spedizioni nell'arco di otto anni – ne scandaglia i diversi piani della manipolazione e della propaganda, mettendo in luce come il modus operandi connesso alla genesi e all'incedere drammatico dello scontro russo-ucraino sia generalizzabile anche ad altri conflitti. Fornendo al lettore strumenti utili per l'identificazione dei meccanismi all'origine degli scontri bellici, l'autrice analizza rodati modelli di ingerenza politica, svela metodi e strategie psicologiche proprie del “marketing della guerra” e offre antidoti di resistenza alla disinformazione che sottende ogni propaganda bellica.Per tutti quelli che desiderano comprendere i meccanismi nascosti di manipolazione mediatica connessi al “marketing” di ogni guerra.Sara Reginella è psicologa e psicoterapeuta. Parallelamente all'attività clinica, ha coltivato in modo indipendente un percorso di studi nel ramo cinematografico, diplomandosi nel 2016 in Regia e Sceneggiatura presso l'Accademia Nazionale del Cinema di Bologna. Testimone del conflitto ucraino dalle sue origini, essendosi recata nei territori di guerra, dal 2015 è attiva in campo documentaristico. È autrice del reportage narrativo Donbass.

Trump is pointing to Kilmar Abrego Garcia's tattoos to justify his indefinite detention without charge in the ultra-oppressive Salvadoran prison gulag. These notoriously include a cannabis leaf, demonstrating the continued propaganda utility of the "Reefer Madness" stigma, even as a multi-milion dollar legal industry emerges. But the White House actually added the characters "MS13" (name of the notorious Salvadoran gang) to the shot of Abrego Garcia's knuckles in a crude photoshop job—despite transparent denials from Trump. Lubricating the emerging transnational mass detention program with this Orwellian post-truth stratagem, the Trump regime meanwhile moves toward actual deportation of US citizens.

First published on 8th June 1949, George Orwell's dystopian novel '1984' has ironic similarities with the state of the Sikhs today. In almost prophetic fashion, Orwell seems to have spelt out the subjugation and mental regression of the Sikhs to enslave them to the overarching agendas of Hindus and Muslims post-independence.This episode furnishes a Sikh-led reading of Orwell in the current context of the ongoing Indo-Pak conflict and how both nations are enacting the same charades that Orwell's states in '1984' enact to distract their populations by uniting them around a convenient external aggressor.Can the Sikhs not only survive but also thrive in this conflict? Listen to find out more.

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”―George Orwell,1984It isn't that one crazy, alleged animal-abusing Democrat who just introduced articles of impeachment against Trump who will define Resistance 2.0.It's the more serious threat that looms ahead should the Democrats take the House next year.Steve Bannon has become the harbinger. He predicted it in 2018, and he's predicting it now.He's right. They have no other plan for America, not in the four years Trump was in power the first time, not for Biden's four years, and not now. They have one directive: to purge Trump and MAGA from utopia.It's beginning to look a lot like 2016, only this time I'm watching from the other side of the door. I escaped, but only just barely. I sometimes look back at who I was then and scratch my head. How could I have been that easily manipulated? How could I have believed them?I believed it all. I read every book on Putin. I hung on every word that came out of Rachel Maddow's mouth. I believed the New York Times had our best interests at heart. I could not believe or even imagine that the people I trusted would eventually expose themselves as weaponized, partisan propaganda machines.I try to connect with the Democratic centrist I used to be because that is still where most of my friends and family are, not to mention all of American culture and most institutions. They live in a completely separate reality, and I live in this one.The only comparison I can make takes us back to just before the last Civil War. One reality not only justified slavery but also existed inside a utopian Antebellum paradise of Southern Belles and wealthy plantations, but also believed ending slavery was an existential crisis they could not survive. How else to convince so many to go fight and die for a cause?The pre-war propaganda whipped both sides into a frenzy that would eventually take them to war. From War History Online:In the decade prior to the Civil War, the American press began flourishing and evolved rapidly in terms of technology, output, and distribution. Meanwhile, the number of newspapers expanded and a new style of weekly pictorial publications filled with comics and illustrations became popular and widespread in northern and southern states.This mass distribution of picture-based media was eagerly and voraciously consumed by the American public. It also proved ideal for distributing and disseminating propaganda and successfully pushed divisive ideologies from both sides of the divide.Sound familiar?When the Union Army won the war, however, their utopian paradise in the South was upended, which kicked off episodes of mass hysteria that would eventually lead to Jim Crow laws, the KKK, segregation, and worse.It's easy, especially for the modern-day Left, to see those crimes against humanity as a disease that lives inside of white people, the sin of racism, a war they believe they're still fighting today.The side that suddenly had all of the wealth and power after the rise of Silicon Valley and the marriage between the Obama coalition and culture was lacking only one thing: spiritual reliefI was part of it. I was a “woke” blogger, though we did not use that word then, and many don't dare use it now. What mattered to me was elevating non-whites and other marginalized groups in the film industry. That gave me, a white woman, a sense of purpose, a deeper meaning for my work and my life, something I'd never felt before.But to be “woke” as translated for white people means believing you share your country and your culture with racists afflicted with “white fragility.” At first, it was an idea that spread, but by 2020, it was mandated.It makes sense when you consider our country expanding onto the new frontier of the internet, where the free market, cities, towns, and demographic groups mattered less than this giant swirling soup of humanity we suddenly had to make sense of. What better way than to divide us up into easily recognizable categories?2016 was, to all of us, a sign that the Confederacy had returned, especially since Trump was now a prominent figure on Twitter, just like Obama had been. We saw his win as an act of war. We were to obstruct, block, shun, attack, or resist. He was not to be allowed to govern, which would ensure his destruction, or so we thought.What we didn't do, however, was listen to the voters. They were invisible to us because we wrote them off as angry white deplorables clinging to their guns and religion. They don't deserve representation. No, it wasn't we who failed. It was Trump who invaded us and is now oppressing us.We couldn't see things any other way. Because we were the “good” side and those people over there had to be the “bad side.” The nation's first Black president, we believed, was hated by white Americans, and now, they were coming to dismantle his legacy, our utopia, and Make America White Again. They still believe that. It is existential to them, which explains the ongoing need to purge their utopia of threatening people.Those same realities that decided who got to stay and who had to go also existed in George Orwell's 1984. What is “cancel culture” anyway, but virtual gulags?Anyone who didn't agree with the reversed hierarchy was out. You couldn't just go along with it; you had to believe it. You had to love Big Brother.Orwell had it so right when he wrote in that last paragraph, “He was in the public dock, confessing everything, implicating everybody.”I could feel it, the mass dehumanization. It didn't sit right with me. I was disgusted by how my side was behaving, but it wasn't until I walked in the shoes of Trump supporters that I knew for sure that this really was a Civil War.No, Trump supporters were not getting lynched or put in concentration camps or a gulag. But the mechanisms at play are the same. I've never seen people in America feel emboldened to attack another group this way, but no doubt it has happened many times throughout our history.To justify that they are the “good” side, they must continue to find victims of oppression based on skin color or gender identity. They don't seem to care that much about the hollowed-out, torn-down neighborhoods in the middle of the country, where people of all skin colors are suffering. No, it has to be those who come from other countries, helpless and faceless, defined only by one thing: the color of their skin. This is a public episode.

In this episode, we dive deep into the totalitarian world of George Orwell's 1984 and ask: Could a Stoic survive—and even thrive—there? What does inner freedom look like when the outer world is a prison? And how might Stoic philosophy be the ultimate rebellion in a world where truth is erased, thought is policed, and fear is everywhere?This podcast is listener-supported; if you would like to support the Strong Stoic (as well as gain access to exclusive content), you can do so on Patreon or Substack:Patreon: www.patreon.com/brandontumblinSubstack: https://strongstoic.substack.com

SEASON 3 EPISODE 120: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: We’ve all known it would come to this; we’ve all WARNED it would come to this; we’ve all PREDICTED they’d try to ease the knife in slowly, they’d take the boiling frog route, and here it comes. It’s in every piece of political science fiction from "1984" to "Brazil" to "V For Vendetta." And it is now real: if everything Trump does deserves criticism and gets criticism there is only one thing for Trump and his gang to do: prosecute criticism of Trump and claim those WHO criticize him are aiding and abetting terrorists. The ultimate Thought Crime was given voice by no less a figure than Trump's Counterterrorism Director, who, since Trump found the worst possible person to do each job (and bin Laden is dead) is Sebastian Gorka. The threat is connected to the push to send not just immigrants to rot in a For-Profit El Salvador Rendition Center, but American citizens too, especially those who standup to Trump's attempt to purge Hispanics from this country. Axios reports that one of the other potential new Orwellian crimes would be advising detainees of their rights. If that's not directed at AOC I don't know what could be. B-Block (25:20) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Derrick Van Orden attacks Wisconsin's governor because Van Orden thinks Milwaukee kids are stupid - and he misspells the word "how" in his post. Brian Kilmeade's Hegseth spoiler alert: he calls him "former secretary." And we are all very proud here that one of 'our own' has reduced Bill Maher to graffiti. Further details on "My Dinner With Adolf." C-Block (37:45) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I had literally forgotten - until I literally worked through the neighborhood - that I made my Broadway singing and dancing debut seven years ago. I mean literally, on stage, during an actual Broadway show. If it made that much of an impression on me, imagine how bored the audience was! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 119: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Senator Lisa Murkowski may be the most important person in the country right now. Her public confession that she too is afraid of the Trump nightmare and her HINTS at talking to Senate colleagues ABOUT her fear – could provide just enough Republican rebellion to rein Trump in. It feels as if she just got it, as if she just understood that yes Trump is Nazi-esque and yes Trump often emulates the Soviets but the closest parallel to him is O'Brien and "The Party" in Orwell's "1984" and the simple terrifying conviction that "the object of power is power." That's why I think when Kristi Garden Noem and Secretary of Defense (and Vodka) Hegseth (if he's still on the job after ANOTHER Signal chat came to light) file their report on the border to Trump this week and tell him no, they don't need to invoke The Insurrection Act, he may do it anyway because... the object of power is power. Murkowski and thirteen other Republican Senators and at most four Republican Representatives can stop this. They can save the country. They can impeach Trump or if they still can’t get over the hump, the 18 of you can use the THREAT to impeach him, to virtually fetter him, to at least control the width and breadth of his damage, to make him know the Senate WILL vote against him. She can also talk to anybody on the Supreme Court except Alito or Thomas. The other seven, in the middle of the damn night - at 1 AM Saturday - stepped in to freeze any further disappearing Americans under the phony premise of The Alien Enemies Act. And there is reason to hope that these Murkowski-led conversations might happen before the iron curtain of dictatorship descends: Later in her confession of fear, she hinted at doing exactly what I just suggested. Meanwhile, how many times can you self-destruct on this? Gavin Newsom dismisses the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case as a "distraction" and calls Democrats sheep for defending the constitution. On the other hand, Senator Ed Markey is crafting a sense of the senate resolution stating Trump cannot again be elected, and cannot again serve, as president or vice president. Damn Straight. B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The Musk Crappertruck Owner who claims to also be a "girl dad"; Pennsylvania congressman Dan Meuser kinda blames Governor Josh Shapiro's criticizing Trump for provoking the attempt to incinerate him and his family in the governor's mansion on Passover. And Trump DEI hire Pam Bondi lies that compulsive martyr and 85th Place Olympic Trials finisher Riley Gaines "went to the Olympics." Not unless she bought a ticket, Pam Blondie. C-Block (55:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The renewed Trump bid to ban the Associated Press got me talking to a friend: How MANY times have I been banned, as a reporter? Do you mean this century, or in total? It's... a lot. From the LA Clippers to the ESPN Campus, I've been banned... a lot. And je ne regret rien!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Laura Grant, an associate professor at Claremont McKenna College. Many environmental nonprofit groups have been working to influence policy, but relatively little research has demonstrated how the efforts of these groups shape policy outcomes, and how some groups may support, catalyze, or even substitute for government action. In this episode of Resources Radio, Grant discusses new research that aims to better understand the work of environmental nonprofits, including various methods that environmental groups use to advance progress on key environmental issues, from headline-grabbing protests to litigation and research.

In the debut episode of All the Buried Women, co-hosts Beth Allison Barr and Savannah Locke aim to uncover women's stories hidden in the Southern Baptist Convention's archives. The story begins in an unexpected place for a podcast about Southern Baptists: 4th-century Rome with Saint Fabiola. Because Fabiola challenged religious and societal norms, her story has become a safe harbor for women with similar experiences… even women in the SBC. Fast forward to 1984, where a pivotal moment in Kansas City, Missouri, changed the trajectory of women's roles in the Southern Baptist Convention. There's a reason Orwell warned us about 1984. Listen to Episode 1 to find out more. We reached out to the SBC, Paige Patterson, Darryl Gilyard, Tommy Gilmore, and the Council for National Policy for comment, and did not hear back.
