In Episode 206, we examine communism, socialism, state control, and how the Los Angeles mayoral race and Karen Bass demonstrate that we are already well into communism in this country.

We discuss Karen Bass, Los Angeles politics, identity politics, victimhood culture, welfare dependency, income redistribution, reparations, social programs, and why promises of equality, security, and government support are bait to lure the unwashed masses to their demise.

We explore communism's historical record through the Soviet Union, Stalin, the Holodomor, Mao Tse Tung, North Korea, Fidel Castro, Cuba, the Berlin Wall, and the collapse of communist regimes around the world. We discuss Yuri Bezmenov, demoralization, indoctrination, Cloward and Piven, Karl Marx, Christianity, and how the stages of communist takeover Bezmenov lays out are already nearly complete here.

We discuss schools, education, media influence, childhood indoctrination, social engineering, 1984, surveillance, propaganda, and how the commies brainwash kids because they are gullible, don't know any better, and are prone to trusting adults. We examine whether children are being taught ideology rather than critical thinking and why parents should take an active role in understanding what their children are learning.

We explore 15-minute cities, digital currencies, electric vehicles, healthcare systems, COVID policies, emergency powers, the Patriot Act, artificial crises, government expansion, and how crises caused by elites are used as justification for more and more austere and nefarious policies.

We discuss Donald Trump, controlled opposition, global governance, the New World Order, technocracy, population control narratives, Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab, Justin Trudeau, media manipulation, and how society has been edging closer and closer to centralization.

Finally, we examine why communism has repeatedly failed wherever it has been implemented, why many people continue to support these policies, and what citizens can do to recognize authoritarian tendencies before they become entrenched in society. As always, we prescribe the white pill, and that is that we have to understand communism and how it works so we aren't blind to indications that it is setting in.
