Jerm joins Charles and Mike for a lively discussion on deep divisions within American politics, highlighted by clashes between Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and Ben Shapiro. They explore how cancel culture thrives on the right and left where ideological belief often trumps rational thought.

They note how emotional investment with regard to conflict wildly differs amongst people, while personal beliefs can be heavily shaped by outside influences.

The conversation stresses how media narrative moulds public view on global issues. Psyops and social media platforms amplify some stories but mute others. They underline that we need to use critical thought to sift through information, especially amid controlled opposition and misinformation, which muddles our quest for truth.
