Explore the shocking rise of modern totalitarianism in this insightful episode of The Jeremy Ryan Slate Show. We take a deep dive into the evolution of totalitarian ideologies, drawing critical parallels between historical regimes like Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia and the alarming trends emerging in today's society. Joined by repeat guest Edwin Dearborn—author, board member, and expert in mergers and acquisitions—we critically examine the mechanisms behind totalitarian control, from relentless propaganda to the industrialization of terror, and discuss how these systems continue to adapt in the modern age.Through a unique perspective, we unpack the philosophy of Hannah Arendt, exploring her groundbreaking analysis in "The Origins of Totalitarianism," and connect her observations to the current socio-political climate. From the role of loneliness and propaganda to the shift from military power to policing, this must-watch discussion challenges mainstream perspectives and raises essential questions about liberty, sovereignty, and the future of democracy.Jeremy Ryan Slate, CEO of Command Your Brand, brings his expertise in new media and thought leadership to dissect these critical issues, empowering viewers to think critically and take action. This episode not only offers a thought-provoking narrative but also emphasizes the importance of community, education, and resisting apathy in the face of oppressive ideologies.Join the conversation!

Join hosts Jason, Tony, and our new co-host, Paul, on Episode One of Season Two! On this episode we discuss Sergei Eisenstein's epic two-part Soviet masterpiece Ivan the Terrible, released in 1945 and 1958 respectively. The films were commissioned by Joseph Stalin in 1941 as a means to rehabilitate Ivan the Terrible's image for a contemporary Soviet audience. Stalin celebrated Part 1, but the state banned Part 2. A third part had been in the works, but was abandoned by Eisenstein after the suppression of the second part. Our discussion touches on this history and many other topics, including Soviet montage, dialectical art construction, Eisenstein's queerness, his fraught relationship with Stalin, and more. This is the first episode of a new format in which we take book or movie recommendations from each of us, which are found below: Tony's book recommendations: Sergei Eisenstein: A Life in Conflict by Ronald Bergan (2016) Narrative, Apparatus, Ideology, edited by Philip Rosen (1986) Film Form: Essays in Film Theory by Sergei Eisenstein (1949) Paul's book and film recommendations: This Thing of Darkness: Eisenstein's Ivan the Terrible in Stalinist Russia by Joan Neuberger (2019) Ivan the Terrible by Joan Neuberger Battleship Potemkin (1925; dir.

Get the book here: https://amzn.to/47Lwt4D George Orwell's timeless and timely allegorical novel—a scathing satire on a downtrodden society's blind march towards totalitarianism.“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned—a razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible. When Animal Farm was first published, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell's masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.

Iran, the country the US propped up in the first place and committed coups against in 1953. Israel's October 7th false flag is becoming more and more obvious as they commit further atrocities against innocent civilians, half of them children in Gaza. This is all one big scripted event to bring in the Great Reset. Hamas was created by Israel. Iran and Israel were both propped up by the United States with help from Stalinist Russia.

Originally released on October 18 on Substack. Well, this was supposed to be a short, well-planned out episode of the Emerald City Video podcast… but I guess that you all know us better than we do. We went longer than expected. This week/month we start a new series of newsy discussions on the state of physical media. This is the Emerald City Video Podcast after all, we started this whole thing based off of working at video rental stores obsessed with movies that we could hold in our hands. The past month has had it's ups and downs when it comes to movies in a tangible form - Netflix ditched its DVD rental site but at the same time we've seen the largest number of discs be made ever. It's an odd time for the Luddite movie appreciator. https://comicbook.com/movies/news/2023-set-to-break-the-record-for-most-dvd-releases-ever-but-theres-a-catch According to the report, the total number of titles released in 2023 is on pace to be over 28,000 -- that's more than 5,000 more than last year...which is the current record-holder for the most titles ever released on disc. The number of titles has been creeping upwards since 2016, with the pandemic marking a big increase. Looking at a chart included in the story, it appears the high water mark for official releases was 2006, just prior to the release of the Blu-ray format. The numbers crept downward after that, before suddenly getting markedly higher beginning in 2021. Well, I won't tease too much of the episode here, other than to say physical is here to stay. The links we mention in the show are below. I do apologize for not really reading that one oped well enough to see what they were going for. You'll understand what I'm talking about when we get to it. We're now uploading every episode of ECV on YouTube with video - whether you like looking at our ugly mugs or not.

Over the last decade or so, we have seen a major rise in digital content. Physical media and censorship - oped https://www.michigansthumb.com/opinion/article/internet-unforeseen-medium-orwell-bradbury-s-18414808.php Physical books and media are something protected not only by law but also by history. Government seizures of physical property, especially books, are forever associated with regimes like Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia, to the point where any attempt by the government or other powerful group to take them would immediately be met with hostility, even if one political party or another didn't agree with what it had to say. On the internet, however, if someone wants to edit a Wikipedia article or change someone's name in the credits of a movie (like they did with Elliot Page's name on Netflix in the credits of "Inception") they don't have to take anything. They just have to quietly alter it and nobody will be able to do a thing about it. It won't be seen as totalitarian or taking away people's freedoms or rewriting history. The Digital-Only Era Is Here, and I'm Ready For It https://www.ign.com/articles/the-digital-only-era-is-here-and-im-ready-for-it But rather than lament its passing, it helped clarify my priorities. Which games do I want to own? And which games do I only want to own physically? This kind of thinking makes the games I do go out and purchase physical editions of that much more special, and my collection of physical media isn't just “stuff I like” but “stuff I love.” Pete Davidson Is Hoping to Make Money by Collecting Thousands of Sealed VHS Tapes: ‘It's My GameStop' https://www.complex.com/pop-culture/a/alex-ocho/pete-davidson-money-vhs-tapes 20 secs into video - TLDR got really high, realized that they might become profitable.
What does this 1984 adaptation of the 1949 George Orwell novel tell us about the totalitarian tendency in human history? How does it adumbrate upon the surveillance state as exemplified in Stalinist Russia? What role does emerging technology of the day play in Orwell's vision? How does the film do as a portrait of the subjective experience of this state, as lived by the protagonists, Winston, Julia and others? How does the film portray the efforts of Oceania to control information and change or erase objective records, and what is the purpose of the ‘Ministry of Truth'? How does this effort reflect philosophical ‘idealists'? How do current efforts to change classic works of literature bear similarity to these practices? How does the state of Oceania contrast itself with what, from their point of view, were earlier totalitarian states, such as Communist Russia? Does it believe it's bringing about a utopian vision? What parallels exist between the regular ‘two-minute hates' aimed at Goldstein and anti-Antisemitism in the modern world? How does Oceania attempt to eradicate all normal human attachments and the need for privacy? Does it succeed?
The weather is turning, you're too happy it's fall, you want to read about the world falling apart -- it's DYSTOPIA TIME! The guys counter the autumnal desire for falling leaves and scented candles with a discussion of the wintry novel "Forbidden Child," a brand-new adventure story by Gwen Newell. Gwen comes on the show to discuss the years of writing and editing that finally resulted in this exciting new story: "Forbidden Child" takes place aboard the last piece of America in a flooded world, which is a huge cruise liner called "The Mothership" ruled with the loving, iron hand of the Godmother. The novel follows 13-year-old Piper Pascal, one of the Godmother's most dedicated child spies, who accidentally finds the most illegal thing in the world: a baby. Once she finds this "illegal organism," Piper has to decide whether to turn the baby or try to hide it aboard the ship. non-stop action story ensues. Also in this episode: Nate and Brian get into a pitched battle over the difference between post-apocalyptic sci-fi and dystopian sci-fi. Brian declares victory. Gwen also talks about how much her research into North Korea and Stalinist Russia influenced this cheerful tale (just the right amount).

Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it
From 1941 to 1945, a platoon of Anglo-American reporters (and one or two Australians and Canadians) were housed in Moscow's Metropol Hotel. They were there to report on the defense of the Soviet Union against the Nazi invasion, and many of them were not disposed to tell anything other than the most positive imaginable stories. Yet the regime of Josef Stalin treated them with the greatest possible suspicion, keeping them safely under watchful eyes in the Metropol, carefully controlling what they could see and hear. Nevertheless, even in the wilderness of mirrors that was Stalinist Russia, truth had a way of breaking through. While some of the women translators who assisted the reporters were spies, artfully delivering disinformation through the reporters to their western audiences, others were secret dissidents who took the opportunity to whisper the secrets of everyday Soviet life. Some of the reporters radically reversed the views which they brought with them to the Metropol; while others, seemingly less ideological at the start, sunk into a comfortable moral and intellectual torpor. The Metropol as the stage, and the reporters who crossed it, are the subject Alan Philps new book Red Hotel: Moscow 1941, the Metropol Hotel, and the Untold Story of Stalin's Propaganda War. Alan Philps was Moscow correspondent for Reuters and the Daily Telegraph, has been foreign editor of the Telegraph, and editor of the journal of Chatham House, The World Today. For Further Investigation Previous related conversations include Nadezhda Ulanovskaya in conversation with William F. Buckley
For 75 years, the most anti-Christian regime in modern history has thrown its citizens into prison camps if they are suspected of the slightest dissent. Ten per cent of people live in modern slavery; perhaps 200,000 are behind bars. I'm talking about North Korea, of course – a regime even more abhorrent than Stalinist Russia, but which attracts suspiciously little attention from Western governments and churches unless they feel threatened by its nuclear arsenal. My guest in this episode of Holy Smoke is Timothy Cho, a Christian human rights activist who escaped from North Korea. Even as a child, he was sentenced to forced labour for the crime of watching a James Bond film. In school he was subjected to hysterical anti-Christian propaganda, but found his faith when he was thrown into a Chinese jail. (North Korean refugees are routinely rounded up by Beijing, which then returns them to the Kim family's giant prison camp.) Listen to his extraordinary testimony, and then ask yourself: why are Western governments so relaxed about the human rights abuses of this diabolical regime?

Former President Donald Trump being federally indicted is a historic story. This is the first time in American history that a former president is being federally indicted. Donald Trump spoke in Georgia and North Carolina over the weekend. Trump reassured Americans that he will never yield and will never be deterred. He compared his indictment to something that would be in Stalinist Russia. Even a writer at the Washington Post admitted that this Trump indictment is a bunch of malarkey. Jim Jordan had a wide ranging interview with CNN's Dana bash, and he pointed out that the DOJ goes after Trump before every election. Mike takes all your calls on the Trump indictment to see how you are feeling. Also, Ron DeSantis is slamming the DOJ Trump indictment, but he is in a bit of an awkward position since he is running to defeat Trump in 2024.

1939, Edinburgh. The 7th International Congress of Genetics was being held, but it was not just another scientific conference. It was held after a gap of 4 years, and the most discussed subject had nothing to do with genetics. Everyone was discussing an empty chair. A few decades later, the prime minister of one of the largest nations in the world was frantically reaching out to the world to solve her food shortage problems. This week, we travel from Edinburgh to Stalinist Russia and then finally to Bangalore to uncover the story of an empty chair and the origin story of Rave Idli.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (01/17/2023): 3:00pm- According to journalist Daniel Chaitin of The Daily Wire, Douglas Wise, “[o]ne of the 51 intelligence veterans who signed a letter suggesting the Hunter Biden laptop story could be part of a Russian disinformation operation said [he] knew the contents of the device were genuine at the time.” 3:20pm- During her Tuesday press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre denied reporter accusations that she had not been “forthcoming” about information regarding President Joe Biden's mishandling of classified documents. On Friday, Jean-Pierre stated that the search for misplaced documents had concluded, but on Saturday it was announced that five additional documents were discovered at Biden's Wilmington, Delaware home. 3:40pm- NBC News' Peter Alexander pressed Karine Jean-Pierre about the White House's claim that Republicans are “faking outrage” over President Biden's mishandling of classified documents—but, as Alexander notes, “why shouldn't Americans be upset” over Biden's negligence? 4:05pm- The World Economic Forum Conference—an international non-governmental lobbying organization—kicked off its annual summit in Davos, Switzerland on Monday. Several American lawmakers will be in attendance, including Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE), and U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry. 4:15pm- During the World Economic Forum (WEF), Vice President of the European Commission Vera Jourova suggested that the United States should criminalize “hate speech.” Meanwhile, climate and health researcher Alan Dangour stated that there was a link between global warming and the mental health crisis plaguing Western society. 4:25pm- What is the goal of the World Economic Forum (WEF)? Environmentalism, economic equity, and seemingly a dangerous form of globalization that usurps national sovereignty. Investigative journalist Michael Shellenberger discovered a now deleted video from 2018 where the WEF attempted to predict what the world will look like in 2030. Among the predictions: “You'll own nothing. And you'll be happy.” They also predicted “[t]he U.S. won't be the world's leading superpower.” 4:50pm- While speaking with Brian Stelter at the World Economic Forum, Chairman of the New York Times A.G. Sulzberger called disinformation the greatest challenge facing society. He went on to compare Donald Trump's utilization of the term “fake news” to terminology used in Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia. 5:00pm- Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Taboo: 10 Facts You Can't Talk About”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his recent article, “Saira Rao's Latest Book of Grift.” Dr. Reilly writes that in their new book activists Saira Rao and Regina Jackson basically argue, “[t]he United States is a white supremacist, genocidal, racist society, and white female citizens of this modern Reich need to hire Rao and Jackson's Race2Dinner company to reeducate them past their internalized pathologies.” Amazingly, during “Race2Dinner” they don't even serve you dinner—they just yell at you! Dr. Reilly also weighs-in on Hulu's new “1619 Project” documentary series and the recent revelation that Nikole Hannah-Jones was paid over $1 million for 33 speeches in 2021. 5:35pm- Philosopher Sam Harris bizarrely suggested that societally we were “unlucky” that COVID-19 didn't have a higher fatality rate capable of silencing vaccine skeptics. 5:45pm- While appearing on CNN, medical analyst and Washington Post opinion columnist Dr. Leana Wen said she believes the United States is overcounting deaths caused by COVID-19. 6:05pm- According to Fox News, more than a dozen House Democrats are hoping to propose a Constitutional Amendment lowering the voting age to 16-years-old. 6:10pm- The Turkish government has placed a $500,000 bounty on former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom for being an outspoken critic of the country's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. 6:15pm- A Colorado College professor accused the field of astrophysics of being guilty of “systemic racism and white supremacy”—citing the field of study's emphasis on “individualism and exceptionalism and perfectionism.” 6:30pm- According to a report from Breitbart News, Hunter Biden “paid a $49,910 rental deposit to the House of Sweden for an office for the Biden family business's venture with the infamous CEFC China Energy Co.”—which matches the exact amount he paid in monthly rent at Joe Biden's home in Wilmington, Delaware. 6:45pm- CBS News White Correspondent Weijia Jiang grilled Karine Jean-Pierre for her unwillingness to directly answer questions about Joe Biden's mishandling of classified documents. 6:55pm- Who Won Social Media?

Anthem by Ayn Rand audiobook. Anthem is a dystopic science fiction story taking place at some unspecified future date. Mankind has entered another dark age as a result of what Rand saw as the weaknesses of socialistic thinking and economics. Technological advancement is now carefully planned (when it is allowed to occur, if at all) and the concept of individuality has been eliminated (for example, the word "I" has disappeared from the language). As is common in her work, Rand draws a clear distinction between the "socialist/communal" values of equality and brotherhood and the "productive/capitalist" values of achievement and individuality. The story also parallels Stalinist Russia, which was currently going on at the time as the story was published.
The experience of reading Hannah Arendt's 1951 classic “The Origins of Totalitarianism” in the year 2022 is a disorienting one. Although Arendt is writing primarily about Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia, her descriptions often capture aspects of our present moment more clearly than those of us living through it can ever hope to.Arendt writes of entire populations who “had reached the point where they would, at the same time, believe everything and nothing, think that everything was possible and that nothing was true.” She describes “the masses' escape from reality” as “a verdict against the world in which they are forced to live and in which they cannot exist.” She points out that in societies riddled with elite hypocrisy, “it seemed revolutionary to admit cruelty, disregard of human values, and general amorality, because this at least destroyed the duplicity upon which the existing society seemed to rest.”It's hard to read statements like these without immediately conjuring up images of Vladimir Putin's Russia or Donald Trump's presidency or the QAnon faithful. But that's exactly the point: The reason Arendt is so relevant today is that her diagnosis doesn't apply just to the Nazi or Soviet regimes she was writing about. It is more fundamentally about the characteristics of liberal societies that make them vulnerable to distinctly illiberal and authoritarian forces — weaknesses that, in many ways, have only become more pronounced in the 70 years since “The Origins of Totalitarianism” was first released.Anne Applebaum is a staff writer for The Atlantic and a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian. Her writing — including her most recent book, “Twilight of Democracy: The Seductive Lure of Authoritarianism” — is focused on the resurgence of autocratic movements and governments around the world, and why members of Western societies have abandoned liberal democratic ideals in favor of strongman leaders, conspiratorial movements and authoritarian regimes. And in the introduction she wrote to a new edition of “The Origins of Totalitarianism,” Applebaum argues that Arendt's insights are more relevant now than ever.So this is a conversation that uses Arendt's analysis as a window into our present. Applebaum and I discuss how “radical loneliness” lays the groundwork for authoritarianism, what Putin and Trump understand about human nature that most liberals miss, the seductive allure of groups like QAnon, the way that modern propaganda feeds off a combination of gullibility and cynicism, whether liberalism's own logic is making societies vulnerable to totalitarian impulses, why efforts by populist politicians to upend conventional morality have held such appeal in Western liberal democracies, how the ideology of “economism” blinds Western liberals to their own societies' deepest vulnerabilities, what liberals need to do differently to counteract the rise of global autocracy and more.Mentioned:“Review of Adolph Hitler's ‘Mein Kampf'” by George OrwellBook Recommendations:Cuba by Ada FerrerThe Lincoln Highway by Amor TowlesThe Origins of Totalitarianism by Hannah ArendtThoughts?

You heard it here first: Veterinary sources claim that omicron produces canines of unusual size. This is Tucker. He is 5 months old, 70 pounds, and sometimes gains five pounds in a week. In a related story, a new Pfizer double-blind randomized placebo-controlled study of 4301 patients proves that covid viruses teleport between asymptomatic people. The authors' press release reported, “Our work finally explains the scientific mystery of asymptomatic transmission.” Fluvoxamine, an antidepressant related to Prozac, has been found “safe and effective” for the covid virus. People believe anything these days. Although these stories are all absurd, the third is factual. The deceptions we are seeing are perpetrated by sociopaths, lying politicians, censoring tech companies, and mobster pharmaceutical companies. Your health is at risk if you believe any of it. Remember the recent British Medical Journal editorial, “Time to assume that health research is fraudulent until proven otherwise?” The same holds for the “news.” Omicron is mild and everywhere and will soon be the end of this phase of the scare. Although there are reports of people who contracted omicron more than once, it seems to provide immunity against the other variants. According to Dr. Paul Alexander (see his fantastic substack blog for more Covid information than most people can stand) there is good evidence that omicron is a manufactured virus like the first one. Someone either didn't get the memo to make it lethal or a rogue scientist is trying to end the pandemic. It's all good. Psychologists have given us ways to think about this worldwide disaster. They call it “mass formation.” It includes:1) People are frightened half to death, locked down (isolated), depersonalized, and get lonely. At least a third of the population then becomes hypnotized by propaganda.2) The best educated are the most affected--the vast majority of doctors, for example, believe the crazy stories, while practical blue-collar people don't.3) Leaders focus the attention of the group on some supposed solution and assume progressively more control.4) The narrative becomes progressively more absurd and people get aggressive.Nazi Germany, the French Revolution, and Solzhenitsyn's Stalinist Russia have worrisome parallels.
