Jerm Warfare

We’re constantly bombarded with fake news, propaganda, agendas, and outright lies.
It’s an information war.
What is true?
I don’t know either—but I’m trying to find out, one dangerous idea at a time.

Gays, AI, and the implosion of society
Jul 101:04:12Tap to summarizeTodd Hayen is a psychotherapist who has been a regular on my podcast for years. We mostly riff about abstract nonsense, but I enjoy it, which is why he is a regular.His Substack is called Shrew Views.This time, we chatted about gay marriage and whether or not AI is an existential threat.

Instead of calling people idiots, we must show empathy
Jun 3001:00:52Tap to summarizeWe're in an information war. In fact, we're in multiple information wars at once — a helpful term for it is 'poly-war'. In other words, we're being attacked from many sides: health, mental, and physical.It's why I do what I do — to fit the many puzzle pieces together, try to see the bigger picture, and figure out what's true.UK Column's Mike Robinson and Charles Malet joined me for our weekly banter, where we threw around ideas on how to effectively fight all these wars.

Nietzsche hated God but was obsessed with Him
Jun 2900:57:49Tap to summarizeChris Waldburger wrote a book in which he argues that Nietzsche and Christianity can be reconciled, and that Nietzsche's antagonism towards the faith is far more complex than the cartoon version of "God is dead.It's kinda ironic.Nietzsche claimed he was an atheist, yet spoke about God more than any Christian.

What if Earth is 6000 years old?
Jun 2700:48:29Tap to summarizeI recorded this in 2024, but am sharing it again because, while I am not entirely persuaded by the arguments made, Kent Hovind is someone I've wanted on my podcast for a very long time. I greatly admire him and his passion, and his sense of humour is contagious.In short, he argues that the Bible is literally true, that God created everything in six days, 6,000 years ago, and that dinosaurs lived alongside humans before the Flood.

There is no genocide of Christians in Nigeria
Jun 2600:54:38Tap to summarizeAnother myth-busting conversation coming up! 🔥This time, PD Lawton explains why there is no genocide of Christians in Nigeria, and why both Christians and Muslims are indeed being brutally killed — but it's not a religious war.It's a geopolitical war, backed by Western interests and the very corrupt Nigerian government, with groups like Boko Haram serving as useful tools of destabilisation.It's about what's under the ground.The 'Christian genocide' narrative is a distraction.

Individualism is destroying the West
Jun 2501:01:22Tap to summarizeThis is a topic that gets pushback from many folks who see themselves as 'conservative' or 'libertarian' or whatever.Their argument goes something like this: collectivism leads to communism, so individualism leads to capitalism or freedom.The problem is that they're making a rookie binary error. Life is a complex system — it's not a zero-sum game. Putting family before yourself, for example, is collectivism, since it focuses on a group rather than an individual. I certainly put my family first. Does that mean I'm endorsing communism? No.Richard Storey attempts to explain this.

South Africa's apartheid was misunderstood
Jun 2401:05:14Tap to summarizeThis is a follow-up to a conversation Simon Roche and I had a few days ago about the Soweto Uprising of 1976, now known as Youth Day. We discussed the morally indefensible decisions made by the South African government at the time — and how Soviet and Jewish interests then exploited the event for gain that had nothing to do with South Africa's interests.A lot of people were angry after listening to the episode, so this is a response to the triggered.

When is it okay to restrict free speech?
Jun 2301:00:04Tap to summarizeIn this week's UK Column banter session between me, Mike Robinson, and Charles Malet, we chat about what is meant by the term 'free speech' and when, if at all, it is acceptable to restrict people from speaking freely.As it happens, there are indeed times when it's okay to restrict speech — in a cinema, for example. Do you want to pay money to watch a movie and, instead, listen to the people next to you chatting about what they had for lunch? I pointed out that I won't allow people to come into my home and swear at my family.Sadly, it seems that some people don't do well with absolute freedom of speech and prefer to be chaotic trolls who ruin it for those around them.

Social credit scores are Western, not Chinese
Jun 2200:59:09Tap to summarizeCynthia Chung is an amazing researcher, writer, and filmmaker, and is currently writing a mammoth series on Substack, The True Origins of China's 'Social Credit System', which will later become a documentary, in which she exposes social credit scores as a Western invention, not a Chinese one, as we are led to believe.This matters a lot because we constantly hear about China leading the way in technocracy and why it's a model for Western countries, but the reality is an inversion of what we think we are told.

The HIV/AIDS swindle
Jun 1901:00:22Tap to summarizeHIV/AIDS does not exist.It's a hoax.More specifically, according to biochemist David Rasnick, who has been researching this stuff since the '80s, there is no evidence of any virus causing AIDS. To be clear, AIDS does exist, and it's pretty much a collection of known symptoms such as severe weight loss, chronic diarrhoea, recurring fever, persistent fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, and opportunistic infections like pneumonia and tuberculosis, but all of it is caused by environmental factors.
