Welcome to the show, this episodes kicks off our live stream from October 24, 2023. Here we will begin the delicate operation that is talking about the conflict that has broken out between the Israeli government and Hamas in Palestine. To start we’ll explore a phenomena I’m dubbing “pre-knowledge” whereby your understanding develops not from a linear approach, but from an emergent coalescing patchwork of ideas. With this baseline we will then explore the how the two sides in the cult of American Democracy are able to support the system rather than tear it apart. What these sides are I think unlocks the fervor we feel from all sides in this complicated issue. Make sure you’re subscribed for the next episode where we put this story into the historical context of a post world war 2 order.
