Politech – Episode: Smoke and Mirrors: How Political Parties Use Technology to Manipulate the American Public
Runtime: 30 minutes

In this eye-opening episode of Politech, we pull back the curtain on one of the most dangerous weapons in modern politics: technology-fueled manipulation. From weaponized social media posts to AI-generated propaganda, political parties are no longer just playing the game—they’re rewriting the rules in real time.

Your host goes solo to break down how misinformation and psychological tactics are amplified by platforms like X and Truth Social, diving into real-world case studies like Trump’s Epstein “hoax” claim and Tulsi Gabbard’s explosive accusation against Obama. This isn’t conspiracy—it’s strategy, and it’s working.

Expect a fast-paced, engaging ride through the intersection of tech, power, and influence—with a dash of humor, a dose of outrage, and sources to back it all up. If you've ever wondered how did that post go viral or why do people believe this stuff?, this episode is for you.
