🎙️ The Descent Into Authoritarianism – The Deeper Thinking Podcast

4 minutes

What happens when democratic institutions are slowly eroded, not by military coups, but by language, media, and technology?

Authoritarianism no longer arrives in the form of jackboots and banners—it comes through carefully crafted rhetoric, media complicity, and the unchecked power of global technology elites. Are we witnessing the return of fascism in a form we barely recognize?

Why is language being weaponized to soften the rise of extremist ideology?

How does technology create a new kind of unaccountable power?

What happens when democratic norms are dismissed as outdated obstacles?

This episode exposes the dangerous normalization of far-right politics, the political manipulation of global alliances, and the unspoken control tech moguls have over our lives. As history begins to echo, will we recognize the warning signs in time?
