Taking it Back Ep. 127: Wilcock's Death, SPLC Indictment & The War on Long-Form Media

from Badlands Media · host Badlands Media

Adel Nero is joined by Zak Paine and Frankie Val for a wide-ranging conversation that swings from the cosmic to the criminal. The guys open up about the passing of David Wilcock, the isolating grind of independent media, and why suppression is as much a psychological weapon as an algorithmic one. Frankie delivers his signature wrecking ball vs. scalpel analogy, arguing the Trump-era bulldozer must give way to surgical restoration, even as shrinking attention spans make that job almost impossible. From there, Zak digs into the bombshell SPLC indictment, unpacking how the organization allegedly funded the very hate groups it fundraised against, from the KKK to Unite the Right. The crew also debates whether Pam Bondi was a roadblock or a quiet foundation builder setting the stage for the real prosecutions to come. It's a heavier episode with sharp takes, a little grief, and a lot of clarity on where we are in this media revolution.
