Propaganda, Power & The Illusion of Choice
What if the outrage you feel from news, social media, and politics is exactly what the system wants? In this thought-provoking conversation, Kris Tyte, Sean Snodgrass, Lindsay Nelson, and Quinn Nelson dive into the mechanics of modern propaganda: how it not only divides us, but blinds us from seeing perspectives outside of our own. This episode also explores what it truly means to defend the constitution in today’s world, challenging the ever growing gap between principle and practice. From there, the group dives into a raw, unfiltered debate on what is civil disobedience and whether or not it differs from a crime.

Algorithm-Picked Propaganda
What if the opinions you form…aren’t your own? In this episode, Kris Tyte & Sean Snodgrass are joined by Lindsay & Quinn Nelson to break down modern propaganda: from social media algorithms and AI echo chambers to emotional manipulation. Propaganda certainly isn’t anything new but it’s never been so powerful. Join us as we analyze how outrage is programmed, division is amplified, and how important attention is in today's world. Because understanding the system’s design might just be the only way to step outside of it.
