Breaking History Ep. 91: Philosopher Kings, Global Power Shifts & the Tyranny of Cheap


Listen Later

Matt Ehret and Ghost deliver a sweeping, cerebral episode of Breaking History that traverses the terrain of ancient philosophy, spiritual warfare, and modern geopolitics, all through the lens of history’s repeating patterns. Beginning with a candid discussion about grassroots sovereignty and the spiritual energy behind the Great American Restoration Tour, the hosts explore how authentic citizen movements are essential to reclaiming a corrupted nation, just as they were in ancient Greece and early America.

From Confucius and Socrates to George Washington and Donald Trump, they highlight the timeless battle between oligarchic control and moral leadership, digging deep into suppressed classical wisdom that still shapes today’s struggles. The conversation dives into the roots of empire, from Merovingian myths and Gnostic elitism to the modern priesthood of global governance and the soft tyranny of unthinking "unity."

Matt then pivots to break major news from his recent travels in Thailand, revealing how the long-dormant Kra Canal project is being revived as a keystone of China’s Belt and Road Initiative, and why Western sabotage can’t stop its momentum. The duo connects the dots between global infrastructure, tariffs, and the unraveling legacy of Milton Friedman’s "free market" dogma, exposing how America’s decline was engineered through cheap goods, offshoring, and debt enslavement.

This episode is a masterclass in historical pattern recognition, economic sovereignty, and the sacred responsibility of self-governance. It’s not just a conversation...it’s a call to reawaken the philosopher king within.
