On Tyranny is a show about political philosophy as applied to current events. It is the Podcast version of Ancient Greece Revisited, an online series of mini-documentaries that tries to rediscover the authentic culture of ancient Greeks. On Tyranny was born out of the need to apply some of the ideas discovered to the mass confusion of current events: from the restriction of our liberties in the wake of Covid to the rising globalism pushed by tech companies and mainstream media. Our goal is to apply the lessons of ancient political philosophy as found in Plato and Aristotle, to understand what exactly happened to our freedoms.
This week, On Tyranny speaks with Michael Rectenwald (https://www.michaelrectenwald.com/), author, scholar, philosophical enterpreneur, and rational conspiracy theorist.
Topics discussed:
What are Conspiracy Theories
Who Benefits from Discrediting them
Covid and the Great Reset
Goerge Soros and the Open Society
A Rational Way Towards a "Science" of Conspiratology
What the Future Holds
