Fear, Flags, and the Far Right: The Psychology of a Nation on Edge

Marches in the streets. Hotels attacked. Crosses painted on roundabouts. Something in our collective mood has soured - in the UK, in the US, across the West. This episode digs deep into why societies drift right in hard times. We'll explore the economic shocks, the cultural backlashes, the media machines, and the psychological levers that make anger feel like the only option. But we'll also ask: is this really what we're losing? And what would it take to imagine a less angry future?
