  • 234: Lessons For Libertarians Found In Nazi Propaganda

    What can libertarians learn from history’s most hated dictators? Simply put: the power of propaganda.

It turns out the more you know about the history of propaganda, the more you’ll be able to recognize and resist it. Moreover, with the right tools, you can use elements of propaganda to better advocate for the ideas of liberty.

    Propaganda techniques used by the Nazis, and why they were effective.

    Ways to resist the influence of propaganda.

    … and so much more. Listen right now, and you’ll have the tools to become a more informed citizen. Sound good? (Of course it does.) So why wait any longer? Let’s do this thing.
