Break the Rules

Watch on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_mqIiVtcskThe United States may be approaching a genuine breaking point.Across the country, two increasingly irreconcilable visions of America are colliding: one side demanding order, enforcement, and the restoration of state while the other viewing enforcement itself as illegitimate, immoral, or existentially dangerous.To explore this divide, Break The Rules brings together two voices who both want a high-trust society, but disagree sharply on how such a society can be rebuilt.Auron MacIntyre: a political writer and commentator focused on state capacity, legitimacy, and institutional breakdown in the modern West. He has contributed to The Blaze and other outlets, and has appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight and related programs discussing law, enforcement, and the limits of liberal governance.He is the author of The Total State: How Liberal Democracies Become Tyrannies (2024), a critical examination of how modern liberal democracies can drift toward authoritarian outcomes through emergency powers, bureaucratic expansion, and weakened constitutional constraints. Drawing on his experience as a journalist during the Trump presidency and the COVID-19 pandemic, MacIntyre analyzes censorship, surveillance, selective enforcement, and the growth of unaccountable administrative power, questioning whether democratic systems reliably restrain authority—or instead enable its expansion under crisis conditions.https://x.com/AuronMacintyrehttps://www.amazon.com/dp/1684515580?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_5Q231Q8CQ65W8Z0PTQ3HRio Veradonir: a political organizer, producer, and advisor working across multiple civic and advocacy organizations.

What happens when ancient mysticism meets the future of warfare? 🧠⚔️In this episode of Break The Rules, Lev Polyakov is joined by Ryan Cropper — known for his deep dives into astral projection and out-of-body experiences — and The Warrior Philosopher, who brings a critical futurist and martial perspective. Together they explore whether “spiritual technologies” like astral projection could play a role in preparing warriors of the future.Is astral projection merely a metaphor for mental mastery, or an actual frontier of consciousness exploration?How does Traditionalism, Evola, and even Dune’s concept of the trained elite intersect with modern neurotech, genetic enhancement, and psychic research?We’ll dig into:🔹 The overlap between ancient initiation and modern military psychology🔹 “Inner war” vs. “outer war” — what real discipline looks like🔹 The possibility of astral projection as reconnaissance or “remote viewing”🔹 Whether the next evolution of the warrior class is spiritual, biological, or both.Ryan Cropperhttps://www.youtube.com/@RyanCropperhttps://x.com/Ryan_J_cropperThe Warrior Philosopherhttps://www.youtube.com/@thewarriorphilosopherhttps://x.com/TWarPhilosopherHosted by Lev Polyakovhttps://x.com/LevPohttps://levslens.com/--Consider Supporting BTR by:Becoming a Parton: https://www.patreon.com/breaktherules🥓 Get some scrumptious Biltong (South African Jerky) over athttp://biltongusa.com/ w/ Code: BTR☕ Buying the most delicious coffee ever at https://jamnbean.com w/ Code: BTR10Both codes give you 10% Off & Free Shipping!--FOLLOW BTR:Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/breaktherulesDISCORD: https://discord.gg/hHTNg3MTwitter - http://twitter.com/breakth3rulesSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0yovF9Vo8n1fF1DGlMuWBhApple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/break-the-rules/id1543233584
