The Shift Episode 118: Conspiracy and Democracy with Iain Davis

This episode features a conversation with author, blogger, and journalist Iain Davis. His book, "A Dangerous Ideology" describes how many mainstream academics and psychologists attack "conspiracy theorists" as anti-social paranoids while refusing to accept how a rational person could, in fact, question mainstream narratives. The discussion also includes a detailed look at Iain's essay "Democracy is Dead, Long Live Democracy". It seeks a solution to today's corrupted political systems through a return to the direct democratic concepts used in ancient Athens.
