Ep 722 | The Death of Democracy & the Birth of Twitter 2.0 | Guest: Auron MacIntyre

Today we're joined by Auron MacIntyre, Blaze News columnist and BlazeTV host, to discuss the fall of democracy, the Twitter Files, and Brittney Griner. First, we ask where the line is between voting based on our Christian worldview and theocratic rule and explain why our values cannot be separated from what they inform. We talk about how the elites are always going to try to shape our politics. Then, we look at the Twitter Files, which were released periodically over the past week and revealed inside information on how pre-Elon Twitter colluded with the government to hide information during the election and also shadow-banned conservative accounts they deemed threatening. We also discuss Yoel Roth, Twitter's former global head of trust and safety, who seems to have a quite disturbing pattern of beliefs. We look at the Brittney Griner prisoner swap and explain why descriptors put you at the front of the line for special treatment and ultimately why this was such a big virtue signal direct from the White House.
