As I'm continuing from the beginning, during the course of #97 (October 25, 2017) Dan brings up that the state of healthcare will lead to new diseases, and then also around 20 minutes in mentions "sheep-dipped" (in regards to Timothy McVeigh) lmao

In the wider conversation what does 'is a fed' insinuate or imply? I've heard that said about Reynal (Sandy Hook Defendant lawyer), typically as a pejorative, but I couldn't understand to what degree.

If a chud does anything that the other chuds don't like or might bring down the heat on them, then they claim it's obviously a false flag by the feds. If Owen Shroyer was a true patriot he wouldn't cooperate for a lighter sentence, therefore he must be a secret CIA operative. Reynal couldn't just have been a very lovely lawyer, he must have intentionally thrown the case because he was working for the DoJ out to rig Alex's trial. The people doing Nazi salutes outside of drag book readings obviously can't be real far right freaks who believe the same transphobic poo poo all the chuds are pushing, obviously they're FBI glowies out to make us TRUE PATRIOTS look bad.

Basically, if someone actually does what half the bluechecks are screaming that people should do, then they claim it's a false flag to try to disassociate the actual violence, from their posts screaming about how people should do the violence. Then they can scream about how trans people are all groomers and should get the wood chipper, but if anything actually happens then it's the feds out to created "trans Floyd" so the FBI can arrest all the conservatives on fake charges.

The only bright side is it has made it basically impossible for true mass chud gatherings like Unite the Right to happen again, because any attempts instantly fail as everyone screams about how it's a false flag, which is why you mostly only see the actually organized small groups like the Proud Boys or Patriot Prayer who show up (and also get claimed to be false flags if they actually do anything, but at least they have their in-group to prop themselves up)

As soon as Robson said that, the Clerks quote came into my head and I realized the timeline. McVeigh totally used that as his justification.

I think Robson was pleasantly surprised by the interview. I think it at first was irritating him but he was totally into Jordan’s research and ideas by the end. The “Rogan went insane” short conversation was awesome too.

Edit: I saw that the audiobook is on audible for free (for premium plus members) so I am currently listening to it (because I started listening to Guns, Germs and Steel and it was just not working for me).

Shroyer is on the same level of "free speech" that Alex is, in that he doesn't really care about anything he says, so long as he is the one saying it. I very much doubt he would make a very good "fed" because he will simply say whatever will benefit him, regardless if anything thus said has any truth value. We've already seen him survive a deposition without revealing that it was very probably Rob Dew who got him to defame Heslin, so he'll probably do it again in a criminal context, too.

The plea deal does grant the authorities access to his communications history with J6-adjacent people. That might be plausibly more useful, but IW people do have proven problems honoring discovery requests, so Owen might also attempt the same there too.

Playing games with the deposition you're giving as art of your plea bargain seems like a great way to get your other three charges un-dropped.

As much as I agree with that, the consequences don't exist until the moment they do. I question whatever value they could hope to gain out of him, as he would require them to already know whatever it is they're expecting him to say. This means that using Owen as a source of any new information for their investigations is an excerise in futility, as if you're in position to have to ask Owen about anything, then you likely don't need Owen for anything. It throws the entire point of this sweetheart plea deal into question, as Owen would just be too worthless to be worth the effort.

I wonder about this every time I hear the concept come up in something, and this is just a convenient place to ask since the latest episode mentioned it, but how does an entire nation, especially one as large as the US, have a conversation/reckoning about anything? The best I can figure is a citizens assembly on it, with national broadcasts of similar content on major stations and maybe a referendum on something afterwards, but even then I imagine huge swathes of the population would never engage with it. Again, especially in countries as politically divided as the US.

I don't think it's a mess so much as I think it's a romanticized concept and essentially impossible dream. I don't think it's possible for a nation to do something like have a reckoning with anything; individuals can, and that can spread culturally over time, but it's not something that'll ever have a specific end point or marker of "...and now we've dealt with this" really, I imagine.

Can't you point to Germany and South America in their reckoning with the Holocaust and apartheid in terms of how the state can try to influence the individuals? They had truth and reconciliation committees, required factual education, that sort of thing. We're actively doing the opposite atm.
