US and Guns episode (and many others)

Question for guest… confirmation bias much? This is another example of why academia and experts have lost so much credibility recently. This person clearly went into the subject with preconceived notions. They just massage numbers and perceptions to fit their leftist narrative of “guns bad”. This is all gotten so tired, boring, and predictable. A worse sin is that it’s intentionally deceptive. It serves an agenda and not the Truth, good, bad or ugly. Unfortunately, academia in general today has become a factory of training cogs to reinforce an ideology and not seek the Truth. Without Character anything goes. As for the podcast and hosts, there have been some really good episodes full of great information and insights where you couldn’t easily detect an agenda. Unfortunately many shows show the stain of woke bias with the hosts blindly following the lead. Understandably from the BBC, this has become a sad reality that was done willingly and unlikely to change. I have unfollowed the podcast not due to the fact I can occasionally learn some new, likely accurate information and insight, but for soul sucking time spent having to endure the childish woke views of what is an amazing history of humanity. Wokers will likely love this podcast but others with discernment will likely know what I mean and tread lightly. Good day.

I’m pretty pragmatic. With 2 PhDs and retired from Academia, I enjoy the occasional new age perspective. This abomination is nothing but revisionist history. It fails at all levels of scholastic review.
