In this episode, Alex feels obligated to cover a range of topics. He starts by discussing a recent and difficult conversation he had with someone recently about race, class, and the future. Next, Alex takes his listeners on a tour that stops at every stop of the craziness that is now the GOP. He looks at Senator Tuberville denying white nationalists are racist, George Santos comparing himself to Rosa Parks, and Mike Lindell blaming everyone else but himself for the collapse of MyPillow. Finally, Alex describes the situation between Turkey and NATO. Turkey is not supporting a bid to let Sweden join NATO, why now?

Dark Times for MyPillow, NATO Keeps Growing, Tuberville Defends White Nationalists, Focusing on Class Instead of Race & Santos Compares Himself to Rosa Parks

Alex Kopytko is a ”radical centrist” that wants to understand the extremes. He has worked in politics and has studied public policy and political science. Alex argues that centrism is less about being a contrarian, it is about being able to change your mind and embrace an openness to new ideas. He is concerned about where the United States is headed and through conversations with people from all sides of the political spectrum, he wants to know how Americans can limit the tribalism that is flourishing. As someone that dances along the center-right of the political spectrum, Alex thinks the country needs to come together and talk to one another before it could be too late. This podcast covers domestic politics, as well as political philosophy, and international issues.
