American Thought Leaders - Podcast tekijän mukaan Jan Jekielek

In this two-part episode with Maajid Nawaz, a counter-extremism activist and former Islamist revolutionary, he breaks down the parallels he sees between the methods he used to radicalize young Muslims and the tactics he saw deployed to urge societies to adopt far-reaching COVID mandates. You can watch part one here.In part two, we discuss why totalitarian regimes despise spirituality, and how state and corporate power were merged together in the age of COVID-19.As once-trusted sources of information are becoming increasingly suspect, how do we discern what’s true?“Trust is at the lowest it’s ever been. And what happens when you no longer trust democracy? … That’s when people like I was when I was 16 come in and recruit you to an extremist organization for authoritarianism. So that’s the damage they’re doing by undermining trust.”Follow EpochTV on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EpochTVusTwitter: https://twitter.com/EpochTVusRumble: https://rumble.com/c/EpochTVGettr: https://gettr.com/user/epochtvGab: https://gab.com/EpochTVTelegram: https://t.me/EpochTV
