Kill Along to Get Along: Bernardo Bertolucci's The Conformist Does Life Imitate Art or Does Art Predict and Comment on Life?  Regardless of Bernardo Bertolucci's reputation - admitted questionable actions in the realization of art - the Italian filmmaker is regarded as one of the great Auteurs of Cinema. Films from 1900 (1976) thru the Oscar-winning The Last Emperor (1987), and the controversial (artistically and production-wise) Last Tango in Paris (1972), have explored the human eperience through Sexuality, Social Taboos, Class Conflict, and - in his directorial debut 1970s The Conformist, Politics. Lensed by the great Italian cinematographer Vittorio Storaro, The Conformist may have some of the most beautiful images ever captured in Cinema while telling a story of Political Ideology,  Conformity, and the rise of Fascism.  Questions rise in this 1970 film that have surprisingly presented themselves again over fifty years later. This is a difficult film in viewing, however it is incredibly important in what it has to say and how it says it. Take a listen and let us know what you think.

In today's episode, we examine the intensifying public rift between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. The catalyst? Trump's recently proposed “Big Beautiful Bill” which notably removes federal subsidies that have historically benefited Musk's ventures. Elon has not remained silent, and tensions escalated further when he retaliated by implying that Trump is listed among Jeffrey Epstein's known associates, suggesting this as the reason the full client list remains sealed.Major accusation.Is this an authentic ideological clash, or a calculated distraction? What are the political implications, and who truly benefits from this spectacle? Let's dissect the rhetoric, analyze the deeper motives, and apply biblical clarity in the midst of all of the chaos.—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOopJ1q_VkwFOO-Q2RCLoc1uzsHwAP4yh-_ZFG-r8_S9idICTj6nR

The show opens with a discussion over mental health and political ideology. It should not be surprising, but the more emotionally unhinged and mentally unwell, the more likely you will lean Left. I needed an extra day to process my thoughts on Ukraine's attack on Russia's nuclear bombers. It's not the win the media and the Left want you to think it is. In fact, our whole world moved a lot closer to WWIII than most are willing to admit. The “Free Palestine” movement really needs to be declared a terrorist organization. They really did bring the intifada here and it will continue to escalate if we do not respond proactively now. We just now learned the FBI had a way to hide documents and evidence in their system, which would make it almost impossible to find. This explains why so many investigations seem to stall or get lost once inside the FBI. This also provides a reminder to the audience to be a little more patient with the time it's taking the DOJ and the FBI to go after the corrupt and the law-breakers. According to the Secret Service, Joe Biden would get lost in his own closet. The more we learn, the more it seems Jill Biden was a lot closer to Lady Macbeth than anyone knew. Pam Bondi has announced several arrests in the “swatting” ring that was endangering 100s of Trump supporters and elected officials. It looks like more arrests may be coming. Finally, the Left is still trying to figure out how to keep from losing the male vote, especially the young, male vote. As long as they keep demonizing Alpha males and putting up weak Beta's as examples, they will continue to lose the male vote. To help, I close with a poem by Rudyard Kipling entitled, “If...” Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

ODNI Director Tulsi Gabbard has just declassified the Biden administration's Strategic Implementation Plan for the National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism and what it reveals should alarm every American. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the newly released SIP and exposes how the federal government built an infrastructure to monitor, censor, and investigate ordinary Americans under the guise of countering domestic extremism. From vague definitions like “anti-government sentiment” to partnerships with Big Tech and mental health professionals, the SIP confirms what he argued: this framework was designed to be weaponized against political dissent. Professor Giordano explains how this system threatens civil liberties, how it could easily be turned against the Left under a future administration, and why immediate reforms are needed to dismantle the administrative state. Episode Highlights: How the declassified SIP proves the government's framework for targeting political opponents Why vague terms like “anti-authority sentiment” open the door to mass surveillance and censorship The danger of inverting this strategy under a future administration and why both parties should be alarmed

Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano uncovers the remarkable story of Gouverneur Morris—the forgotten Founding Father who authored the iconic phrase “We the People.” While history often overlooks his brilliance, Morris was the penman of the Constitution, a fierce defender of national unity, and one of the few delegates to boldly speak out against slavery. Discover why his powerful words, moral clarity, and lasting legacy demand renewed attention in today's debates over America's founding principles.   Episode Highlights: The story of how Gouverneur Morris shaped the Constitution and coined “We the People.” How Morris's family division during the Revolution mirrored the larger colonial conflict. His bold denunciation of slavery during the Constitutional Convention and why modern education ignores him.

The judiciary was meant to interpret laws, not rewrite them and not enforce them. Yet activist judges are going beyond their constitutional role by undermining both the executive branch and Congress's legislative authority. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how left-wing judges are making unconstitutional rulings that defy executive authority, particularly in cases involving President Trump's efforts to remove federal employees and enforce immigration laws. These judges, many with histories of Democrat donations and political activism, are not ruling based on the Constitution but rather their personal ideologies. As Trump calls for their impeachment, we examine why this is not the right solution and why Congress must find a way to hold these judges accountable. Judicial activism erodes the foundations of our republic, and if left unchecked, it will only get worse. Tune in as Professor Giordano breaks down the most egregious cases, the dangers of a politicized judiciary, and why judicial restraint is essential to maintain a constitutional balance of power. Episode Highlights: • Judicial Overreach Exposed – How activist judges are blocking Trump's executive actions and undermining the rule of law. • The Dangers of Politicized Courts – Why a judiciary driven by ideology threatens the separation of powers. • Fixing the Problem – Why impeachment isn't the answer, but censure and reforms are necessary to restore judicial integrity.

In his new book, DEI Exposed: How the Biggest Con of the Century Almost Toppled Higher Education, Dr. Ridgley dismantles the pseudoscience behind DEI and reveals it as a multi billion dollar ideological scam that has corrupted academia, suppressed intellectual inquiry, and enriched a class of professional grifters.

Episode #55 : Bhagat Singh wasn't just a freedom fighter—he was a visionary thinker who redefined the struggle for independence. Unlike many of his contemporaries, he saw revolution not just as an armed struggle but as a fight against oppression, ignorance, and injustice. Influenced by socialist and anarchist ideologies, he believed in a nation free from not just colonial rule but also from social inequality and economic exploitation. His writings and speeches reflected his deep commitment to rational thought, atheism, and the idea that true freedom required both political and intellectual liberation. In this episode, we explore Bhagat Singh's revolutionary ideas, his vision for India, and why his thoughts remain relevant even today.00:00 - Childhood revolutionary movies & Sources08:50 - Family11:21 - Lost Work12:44 - Bhagat Singh Available Work13:16 - Early Influence & Bigger Cause 18:30 - Struggling Farmers19:57 - College & Literature Influence23:23 - Communism & Socialism 29:03 - Dreamland30:31 - Long Live Revolution32:34 - Why I am Atheist34:01 - Main Events36:19 - Shaheed Movie36:40 - Vicharvan Inqalabi38:13 - Kakori Conspiracy Case39:30 - Universal Brotherhood40:02 - Bhagat Singh on Language42:20 - Fighting Injustice44:39 - 116 Day Hunger Strike47:11 - Bhagat Singh & Pakistan48:04 - Muhammad Ali Jinnah & Use of Violence50:51 - Bhagat Singh on Mahatma Gandhi52:37 - Bunbu ichi - Pen & Sword in Accord53:18 - Misinterpretations54:45 - Bhagat Singh, Religion, God01:08:13 - Act of Attender & Trials01:13:57 - Congress Party & Bhagat Singh difference01:16:03 - Problem with Political Ideologies 01:26:00 - Bhagat Singh Lawyer Denis N.

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano welcomes Cheryl Chumley to discuss her new book, God-Given or Bust: Defeating Marxism and Saving America with Biblical Truths. As the battle between faith and government control intensifies, Cheryl explains how America is at a crossroads – either reclaim our God-given rights or succumb to Marxist ideology. They break down the erosion of religious liberty, the dangers of government-granted rights, and how President Trump's administration is working to reestablish faith at the center of American life. With policies aimed to combat secular overreach, Cheryl outlines how people can rise up, inject biblical values into society, and ensure that America remains a nation rooted in freedom, not authoritarianism. Episode Highlights: • The rise of Marxist ideology and how it threatens God-given rights in America. • President Trump's efforts to restore faith in government, including his White House faith-based initiatives. • The urgent need for Americans of faith to reclaim their role in shaping policy, culture, and the future of the country.

A ctivist and author Peter Gelderloos returns to the Porpoise Almanac to discuss his latest book, "They Will Beat the Memory Out of Us." With a lifetime of activism under his belt, Peter shares his heartfelt reflections on the enduring struggles of social movements, the critical role of collective memory, and the widening gap between generations in the digital age. Our conversation takes a deep dive into the complexities of maintaining intergenerational connections amidst capitalism's isolating forces, highlighting how social media often exacerbates these divides rather than bridging them. Together, we navigate the labyrinth of political ideologies, examining the fluid nature of anarchism and the need for adaptability in today's rapidly changing world. Peter sheds light on the pitfalls of rigid frameworks and the resilience of grassroots mutual aid, contrasting these with the inefficiencies of traditional governmental responses. We explore the fascinating potential for engaging with right-wing narratives, probing the surprising openness some individuals have toward systemic issues and the necessity of preserving past activism's memory to inform contemporary efforts. Our discussion further extends to supporting incarcerated individuals, underscoring the importance of memory and community in aiding their re-entry into society. Peter's insights on navigating imperfections within activism offer a candid look at the challenges of fostering collective accountability and healing. His work resonates profoundly with anyone feeling adrift in modern movements, and we encourage our listeners to explore his writings for a deeper understanding of building resilient, generational communities.

Today we're going to get a little political, without the hostility. We're exploring the bias, misrepresentation and dangers that come with ascribing to the ‘left wing' and ‘right wing' political spectrum. Political scientist, professor in political and constitutional studies, and co-author of ‘The Myth of Left and Right' Verlan Lewis joins us to debunk the essentialist theory behind the left/right concept. While it's still a fairly young idea, Verlan stresses how it is increasingly harmful, by creating a false narrative of division that kills humility and perpetuates self-righteousness. “Don't talk about politics at the dinner table” (or in business) is what we often hear, but Verlan says we need more, not less, moderate and civil discourse on political issues, without the damaging rhetoric that comes with left/right ideologies. ----------More:Looking Outside podcast www.looking-outside.comConnect with host, Jo Lepore on LinkedIn & XBuy The Myth of Left and Right book via Oxford Press or AmazonFollow Verlan on LinkedIn & XRead more of Verlan's research on Google Scholar Check out Verlan's appearance on the Future Tense podcast appearance----------⭐ Follow & rate the show - it makes a difference!----------Looking Outside is a podcast exploring fresh perspectives of familiar topics.

"Savarkar was a great rationalist. The surprising thing is how such a rationalist went completely off the rails in regard to other matters. His writing is full of villains and among the villains are the Buddha, all Buddhists, whom he considered hereditary traitors, Ashoka, Akbar, Tipu Sultan, and then Gandhiji. On the question of Godse and Apte there was no doubt that they were his acolytes, they were his worshippers. Sardar Patel said the problem was that once you create an atmosphere then you don't have to tell anybody to go and assassinate; he reads your lips. You just have to see the publications Savarkar was patronizing... They were only penning hatred and it was all centered on one man -- Gandhiji. Savarkar felt that the Marathas were the real legatees of the Mughal empire and then the damn outsiders, the British, slyly took over. The same thing happens in his own life . He thinks he is the heir to Lokmanya Tilak and then this outsider Gujrati comes and takes the whole prize away. This great disappointment in his life gets centered on one man and becomes hatred. Today, Gandhiji is a great inconvenience because he embodies Hinduism, the collective memory of our people. If Savarkar's line is pursued, then India will become a dismembered nation like Pakistan; society will be riven by hate. This eternal search for purity always ends in that. The difference between Indic religions like Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism from Semitic religions is that ours is an inner-directed search. Everything - pilgrimages, idol worship, mantras etc. is to aid this inner search. When you marry it to the State, religion becomes an instrument of the State. You only have to look at the Jewish religion when Gaza is to be bombed - it just becomes an instrument. Secularism is a way of keeping the purity of religion. It's not anti-religion. Keep religion and the State separate. That is why my book ends with this appeal - Save Hinduism from Hindutva" - Arun Shourie, author, 'The New Icon; Savarkar and the Facts' talks to Manjula Narayan on the Books & Authors podcast.

Renegade Supply Store: https://renegade-supply-shop.printify.me/products   Mormon theology is full of amazing promises. Some of those promises have to do with new scripture coming forth in the last days. Now that is an exciting prospect. Like many of you I look forward to that time. However, when one says that new scripture that has come forth, we must be very careful. We must make sure that the purported new scripture harmonizes with the principles of the existing cannon of scripture and other principles that have been revealed through the Prophet Joseph Smith. Today on this episode and next week as well I have Justin Francom on to breakdown all six volumes of the Nemenhah Record. We examine the books views on Family Structure, Priesthood, Communing with Deity, Political Ideology, and the books' view on Joseph Smith, then compare what the book is saying with the already restored truths found in Scripture and from Joseph Smith.

Voting day always comes with its unique stories, doesn't it? Imagine the surprise on my face when one of us decided to write in their dad's name as a candidate! Episode 250 of Bros Bibles & Beer takes you on an introspective journey through the aftermath of the elections, mixing humor with a dash of political exhaustion. We share our personal experiences at the polls, discuss the rollercoaster of emotions these elections stirred up, and express a longing for simpler, less intrusive governance. We juxtapose our current sentiments against those from elections past, acknowledging the fatigue that comes with continuous political upheaval. As the conversation unfolds, we dive into concerns about how shifts in power might erode personal freedoms, drawing from personal stories and historical events. The atmosphere during Obama's time, with folks stockpiling supplies due to fears of drastic change, serves as a backdrop for our exploration of recent government restrictions. We dissect the Democratic Party's electoral challenges, highlighting the need for a shift in strategy beyond identity politics and media narratives. Political polarization and the intertwining of faith and politics are explored, especially regarding immigration, as we ponder the role of the church in these complex times. The latter part of the episode tackles societal shifts and the balancing act between compassion and legality in immigration. We explore how the church can navigate the rise in non-binary identities while staying true to traditional beliefs. With engaging anecdotes and humorous interludes, we venture into discussions about taxation, historical societal shifts, and the cultural phenomena shaping our world. From the intriguing debate on Saint Augustine's pronunciation to the playful creation of a fictional dating app, "Accidental Finder," we ensure a mix of thoughtful reflection and lighthearted banter, all wrapped up with gratitude to our listeners.

In this episode, Damein Schitter discusses following Jesus in politics with Robert Cunningham. Robert is the founder and director of Christ for Kentucky, and the former Senior Pastor of Tates Creek Presbyterian Church. He and Damein were at Covenant Theological Seminary at the same time, and Robert is now a current Ph.D. candidate at the University of Leicester, researching the role of religion in America's founding era. In their conversation, Robert and Damein draw on David Koyzis's book, Political Visions & Illusions, to make a bold statement: politics often masquerades as a modern idol, promising salvation and redemption much like religious doctrines. Their exploration then challenges us to reconsider where we place our faith and trust amidst a polarized society.Taking a deeper dive, Damein and Robert look into the concept of political ideologies as "isms" that offer false promises of redemption, akin to religious gospels. They highlight the dangers of viewing political opponents as heretics, fueled by echo chambers and partisan media. They underscore the importance of renouncing these ideological idols and reorienting ourselves towards the kingdom of God, advocating for a gospel that inherently carries social implications without equating salvation with social deeds. They invite us to grapple with engagement in a secularizing world, finding balance between withdrawal and deeper involvement.In conclusion, they shift their focus to the broader social responsibilities of Christian faith, challenging the tendency to compartmentalize it as merely a personal practice. Inspired by John Stott's interpretation of being "salt and light," they encourage believers to actively create a world that mirrors God's will. They also address the misconceptions about political divides, highlighting the significance of connecting with real-life neighbors rather than relying on algorithm-driven echo chambers. They land on an emphasis on the power of feeling seen and the importance of engaging deeply with your community to gain a nuanced understanding of today's political landscape.For more about Robert, you can visit his website, and find the episodes on his podcast going further into David Koyzis's work here: Every Square Inch

An Unholy Rebellion, Killing the Gods: Political Ideology and Insurrection in the Mayan Popul Vuh and the Andean Huarochiri Manuscript (University of Nebraska Press, 2024) is the first comprehensive comparison of two of the greatest epics of the Indigenous peoples of Latin America: the Popul Vuh of the Quiché Maya of Guatemala and the Huarochiri Manuscript of Peru's lower Andean regions. The rebellious tone of both epics illuminates a heretofore overlooked aspect in Latin American Indigenous colonial writing: the sense of political injustice and spiritual sedition directed equally at European-imposed religious practice and at aspects of Indigenous belief. The link between spirituality and political upheaval in Native colonial writing has not been sufficiently explored until this work. Sharonah Esther Fredrick applies a multidisciplinary approach that utilizes history, literature, archaeology, and anthropology in equal measure to situate the Mayan and Andean narratives within the paradigms of their developing civilizations. An Unholy Rebellion, Killing the Gods decolonizes readers' perspective by setting Mayan and Andean authorship center stage and illustrates the schisms and shifts in Native civilizations and literatures of Latin America in a way that other literary studies, which relegate Native literature as a prelude to Spanish-language literature, have not yet done. By demonstrating the power of Native American philosophy within the context of the conquest of Latin America, Fredrick illuminates the profound spiritual dissension and radically conflicting ideologies of the Mesoamerican and Andean worlds before and after the Spanish Conquest. Books mentioned: Breaking the Maya Code by Michael Coe The Huarochiri Manuscript translated by Frank Salomon Popol Vuh translated by Dennis Tedlock Sharonah Esther Fredrick teaches in the College of Charleston's Department of Hispanic Studies.

In this week's episode Elizabeth and Matt Watson discuss ideology in his field of social work. A recently published survey study confirmed that a trend toward liberalism in higher education faculty is even stronger in social work and the researchers expressed less concern about this than we'd hoped. We consider what the findings and the tone of the article mean for the field.  We also discuss the social work code of ethics and potential conflicts created by the preponderance of progressive faculty and elaborate on the importance of diversity of thought in both social work education and social work itself.  We also reached out to the author and Dr. Stephen Stoeffler joined us for a follow up. We asked Stephen about provisions for protecting religious and political views, and how social work faculty can avoid alienating their less progressive students at a time when the field needs more good candidates.  Stephen expressed an openness and commitment to viewpoint diversity in social work classrooms and practice. He also reiterated his beliefs that the field's alignment with the progressive left is appropriate and that social work education should maintain that focus.  We all agreed that these are the kind of difficult conversations we need in the fields of social work and social work education. Podcast notes Stoeffler, S., Young, B. & Hassler, M. (2023).  Embracing our values: Social work faculty progressivism in a conservative world.
