S2E7: 1 Year Later, We're Still 50 Years Ago
from CivilDiscourse101 · host CivilDiscoursePurpleState
Tonight, we take a hard look at how quickly “conspiracy” becomes policy. We revisit concerns raised last year—government surveillance, ICE expansion, and erosion of First Amendment protections—and examine how those fears are now playing out in real time. Unpack with us the recent DHS subpoenas targeting online speech, private surveillance tools marketed as “safety,” and the dangerous feedback loop between power, technology, and control. The episode also explores why public outrage keeps repeating itself decade after decade—and what actually changes when people get “mad as hell.” So sit back, relax, and get ready for a civil conversation.
