- Nachrichten
3/23/2021 - In this episode, we talk about the use of race based narratives in politics. We briefly talk about the shooting in Georgia and how people are reacting to it in terms of race. Then, we compare this to how certain policies are being pushed in the name of "equity", such as the Fed pushing low interest rates. We talk about how this can be used to radicalize policy conversations and make certain policy preferences toxic. Making policy discussions about racism has the potential to be a radical propaganda tactic. This tactic can be used in a despicable way, but it also undermines democracy, so it's kind of a good thing.
