In this episode, I talk about human nature, influence ops, conspiracy slop, and the calculated turn against President Trump by what I call Team Centipede.

This isn’t a document-heavy episode. Instead, I walk you through media, posts, events, associations, and observations. I highlight some things I’ve gotten right, some things I’ve gotten wrong, and admit to being fooled myself.

It’s not a particularly positive or negative episode—just a candid one. My hope is that it encourages you to troubleshoot your own information systems and to swap out faulty or unreliable components, no matter how attached you may be to them.
