Episode 61 - Ghost in the Shell (1:15:21)

We invite a returning guest, Liam Cardenas, to discuss the Ghost in the Shell. We primarily focus on the newer ScarJo version, but also discuss the original anime. Major (Scarlett Johansson) is the first of her kind: a human mind inside an artificial body. Discovering her creators lied about her past life to control her, Major will stop at nothing to unravel the mystery of her true identity and exact revenge. We get into a lively conversation that runs a bit longer than we intend for the new format, but we think it is well worth it. Show notes at: https://www.ActualAnarchy.com/61 Robert and I analyze popular movies from a Rothbardian/AnarchoCapitalist perspective. We use movies as a starting point for people who may not be familiar with this way of thinking.   Discussion of the plot and decisions that characters make in relation to morality and violations of the non-aggression principle are our bread and butter. We also will highlight and discuss any themes or lessons from Austrian Economics that we can glean from the film. The point is to show what anarchy actually is with instances that are presented in film. We publish at least once per week; and occasionally will do specials surrounding holidays or events (elections/olympics) and have guests. SUBSCRIBE, RATE AND REVIEW ON APPLE PODCASTS (or iTUNES)
