Ep. 96: How the left weaponizes loneliness
In this week’s episode of Top Story, JNS editor-in-chief Jonathan Tobin talks with columnist Stella Morabito about her new book “The Weaponization of Loneliness: How Tyrants Stoke Our Fear of Isolation to Silence, Divide and Conquer”.<br /><br />Morabito outlines how the pandemic highlighted the way isolation could induce Americans to abandon their belief in individual rights. Was this an isolated incident? Are there other examples where ideologues have used isolation and the fear of being canceled to get society to conform? Is there a pattern that is repeating itself?
