David Gornoski

David Gornoski resumes his deconstruction of statist coercion and the current manner of doing politics that is victimism. How does mythmaking work in modern-day media? David Gornoski gives us an illustration from recent news--how the mainstream media paints Russia as a boogeyman to hide the establishment's sins. Not only does the media gaslight us on politics, David says, but they also push a fake food pyramid onto us to severely damage our body's immunity while making us susceptible to viruses like COVID.

Why are many Americans concerned with superficial social justice while ignoring the real flesh and blood victims of state violence? Is the "Woke" movement a reflection of the State that seeks to engineer society through coercion and violence?

Jennifer Aniston recently remarked that it's "irresponsible" to vote for Kanye while proclaiming her vote for Biden based on women's rights. "How many women's bodies were destroyed by Barack Obama and Joe Biden in Afghanistan, Libya, and Syria?" David Gornoski asks the actress who claims to be pro-choice. "These people," David says, referring to the McWoke crowd, "have a disturbing, sterile, mutated, freaky version of compassion." The same people who say they are for pro-choice are the same people who think sending more women off to war is somehow 'woke.'

While concluding that Trump won the debate against Biden, David highlights the absence of foreign policy disasters, among the debate topics, such as the innocent people killed in Yemen, the drone strikes that killed US citizen Anwar al-Awlaki and his son, and others killed due to US interventionism abroad.

Jeff Deist, president of the Mises Institute, returns to the show for a preview of the Trump, Biden debate. On the aborted 60 minutes Trump interview, Deist says: "Talk to us directly... We don't need the sham intermediary of CNN or any of these people. That, for me, is what the digital age is all about." Is Trump the "lesser of two evils?" Deist makes the case that, in terms of centralization, there is almost no difference between Trump and Biden.

The media's distraction with the Borat movie is pathetic! David says. He highlights how these "Pravda wannabes" are doing everything they can to hide the disgusting Hunter Biden revelations.

What led to the use of marijuana becoming illegal in the United States? Craig points to history and highlights the astonishingly racist intention behind making marijuana illegal. How has President Trump impacted criminal justice reform as compared to Obama? Craig credits Trump for implementing the First Step Act that has greatly benefited non-violent prisoners. Why is there a correlation between being soft on violent crime and being tough on nonviolent crime?

"The American left should work toward abolishing the Constitution someday—either for a new document or a new democratic order without a written constitution." This was written in a column for the New Republic. David analyzes this statement and points to the lack of any real vision on the Republican side as well as the alarming views held by many on the left. "What is left for the left?" David asks. The left has nothing to offer. At this point, they are all for victim-garbed totalitarian control and censorship. How do we move past the left's victimist authoritarian ways and get down to solving real issues and defend real victims? The key, David says, lies in the imitation of Christ.

"The right doesn't have a robust answer to the lies behind the utopian revolutionary moment that we're entering." Joining David Gornoski for this episode is Michael Rectenwald, author of Beyond Woke, to discuss this phase of near-totalitarianism rising in our country.

Michael Rectenwald, author of Beyond Woke, and mathematician James Lindsay, author of Cynical Theories, join David Gornoski to address a certain subject that was brought up during the presidential debate by Chris Wallace, namely Critical Race Theory. What is this ideology that has crept into the universities? James Lindsay says, "this ideology that we're up against today has cherry picked from the critical theory tradition, from the postmodern tradition, liberal traditions of social justice, [and] liberalism itself to concoct a rather horrifying totalitarian ideology that we've worked backwards to explain." Is Critical Race Theory just racial sensitivity training as Wallace claimed? Michael Rectenwald says it goes further than just that. "Rather than seeing race as one aspect of society... it sees race as an all-determining totality that reaches into every aspect and informs all experience." How does this ideology shape the human psyche? Why does it exclude the need for evidence and logic? How do we tackle this ideology? How can we formulate a genuine alternative to Critical Race Theory that deals with real injustice and helps real victims? Listen to the full podcast to find out.

As expected, nothing of value was discussed in the Trump-Biden debate. David Gornoski points to how the mainstream media's twisted narrative was well represented by Chris Wallace's woeful moderating. How will this debate impact our subconsciousness that identifies with the visuals? Will there ever be a discussion of real solutions, like curing cancer and other diseases, on the political stage? All the status quo cares about is getting rid of the heretic that has managed to gain control of the highest seat in the country. Listen to the full episode for David Gornoski's breakdown of the debate and what must be done to escape this neverending mimetic crisis of blame-shifting.

David Gornoski resumes his exposition of the election media coverage that has mostly focused on Trump's taxes but has failed to mention anything about Biden and Harris' record of warmongering and locking up non-violent offenders. "The 1619 project is nothing but a sleight of hand," David says as he points to the real problems like the media failing to hold their favorite politicians accountable and Big Tech censoring dissident voices online. What can't we expect from the debate? We won't hear about any real solutions like too-cheap-to-meter energy, ketogenic nutrition to counter diseases, and other voluntary market-based innovations.

In this Things Hidden conversation, David Gornoski and Shannon Braswell are joined by Jean-Michel Oughourlian, psychologist and author of 'The Mimetic Brain.' Oughourlian starts the discussion with an insider's perspective as Girard's collaborator and how he found breakthroughs in the field of psychotherapy upon studying mimetic theory. "The mirror neuron is something fantastic," Oughourlian remarks, "because if you experiment, if you put a CT scan or PET scan on your own head and mine, and I'm drinking a glass of water, and you are on the other side of the Atlantic just looking at me, in both our brains the same regions will be activated the same way. In other words, whether I do the action or whether you look at it, the brain functions the same way--it mirrors what I'm doing." How does this discovery relate to the right and left-hemisphere brain study by Iain McGilchrist? How has mimetic theory helped Jean-Michel Oughourlian in the field of psychotheraphy? "What I try to do when I see a patient is not so much find out what he is suffering from but to find out who he is suffering from. In other words, who is his rival," Oughourlian states, "This becomes extremely tricky because some people look like friends but they are your enemies, some other people you think are your enemies but they are friends, they want to help." Is mimetic theory connected to physics? What is consciousness, or more precisely, how does consciousness function? Since we're all compelled to imitate, how should we select our role models?
