The Fake Concern Over False Narratives

David Gornoski starts the show with an observation by Rene Girard on the seductive pull of bad behavior and violent groupthink. He then moves to some fascinating analysis of current topics such as the COVID vaccine program; the pushing of ‘authorized’ false narratives; the Left’s cluelessness without their favorite boogeyman Trump; Rand Paul’s speech on Trump’s impeachment; the need for political atheism; the need for combating groupthink via art; and more.
