3. Always Read the Fine Print

from The Eastern Border

In this episode, I cover information that You should be aware of - the kind that various other actors would rather you not think about too much. Sure, there's news information related to the war - but I use it to illustrate a point about why You should truly always read the metaphorical "fine print". The philosophical theme of this episode is about concepts of control, lies feeding more lies and AI algorythms being tied to the propaganda machine. And yes, Russia's economy and logistics are extra screwed because they've got piles and piles of this "fine print" stacked on top of themselves...but this is a more mindful episode than just vatnik news. It's one of those where I hope that you'll go "hmm" at the end and reflect a bit about various similarities and patterns. And I definitely didn't succeed as much as I'd like, but that's because I had to make cuts. However, it's all for something truly epic that I plan to give to You in the future.
