Hero Worshipping #028

from The Western Bubble Hosted by Balder Hageraats & Dario Hasenstab

Today we analyse how unrealistic perspectives on historical individuals contribute to bubble thinking. We as a society take characters such as Mother Teresa, Winston Churchill and Mahatma Gandhi and elevate them to levels of irrational purity. This leads to a type of hero worshipping that strengthens delusional narratives about ourselves and our environment. This podcast is published with the help of RAIA and edited by RAIA member Usama Ghanem but is an individual project between the Director of RAIA Dario Hasenstab and Balder Hageraats.
