The same lib brain Russia bullshit, which is also conservative brain qanon, also plays into this fantasy police have of themselves

Julian

Just curious if the guest and host use the services of the police?

“Chud” in a Yorkshire accent was a delight. Great episode.

Listening to this and reminded of the movie WolfCop--part unthinking, bloodthirsty monstrosity, part wolf!

Alex

Love this episode. Maybe you've already read it, but an interesting book about counterinsurgency techniques in modern policing is "The Counterrevolution" by Bernard Harcourt.

James Aydelotte

An interesting notion on the robocop mind virus- you described it in the open when discussing a former acquaintance becoming a cop- and turning into a machine. This reminds me of the Zimbardo experiment from 1971 at Stanford. (I guess silicon valley never really changed) and the basic idea that power - perhaps the essence of capital- is on its own ravenously corrosive to humanity- to that ‘kingdom of god’ within each of us.

“Siege” (1983) Rigid leftist action movie
