UG#747.1 - The Tyranny of Enemy Images - 2
This time, we continue the theme from episode 746, which highlighted how "enemy images" reduce people's ability to empathise and to make objective judgements, as opposed to a clear focus on observable reality. We look at a word which since 1979 has become the basis of innumerable laws, but which...
