REDACTED Culture Cast

Talk Back to MeInstead of merely documenting the rise of Insurgency across the world, in this episode we draw out both how and why insurgency came to become so prevalent in the world. Two trajectories can be drawn from the end of the 19th Century, as the presence of unified and integrated belief systems declined, and war began industrializing. One intersection arrives in the form of insurgency, where war on a National scale is held back by the threat of mutually assured destruction, meanwhile, populations continue to feel less and less connected to their country, and a sense of meaning. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeWe left off just halfway through the conversation on Women in Gun Culture, and resume by addressing what might be the other extreme of the spectrum. While we addressed the intent and premises that we approached this talk in the first half, the second addresses what it looks like to "have a seat at the table."But wait, there's more. Having a monopoly on violence, in its base form, is antithetical to our human rights. Not only antithetical in the sense that, if it were the case, it would be wrong, but another layer deeper when we say that a human right is one that cannot be deleted, only infringed. Enjoy the second half of Paigeosity's first appearance on the REDACTED Culture Cast. Follow Paige in Instagram at @paigeosity Find her work at shop.paigeosity.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeBefore we get into even talking about Women in Gun Culture, we have to lay down the premises that frame the conversation. The word "representation" is so abused that it must be either cured or discarded. Paige aka Paigeosity has found a place within Gun Culture, and brings the problems with multiculturalism to the conversation. Defining terms, we start by breaking down presumptive arguments that attempt to inject truth statements in the form of an assumption, without directly signaling the intent. In some cases, the argument is the distraction, and in part one, we start by unravelling what one looks like. So when it comes to the conversation about Women in Gun Culture, what do we do? From Gun Bunnies to Annie Oakleys, it turns out that the conflict isn't coming from within, but without. Stick around for Part 2.

Talk Back to MeA common theme repeated when regarding the advancement of technology arrives in the phrase from Jurassic Park: "Our scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should." Yet outside of the metaphorical Silicon Valley, with the rise of AI, and the advancement of technology as a tool for surveillance, the conversation is evolving to reconsider the Rights of the Individual. Whether bitcoin could function as the antidote to centralized banking, or if encrypted communications are a threat to the nation state, part of considering technology is what is could do, and another is what it should do.

Talk Back to MeAbused by culture, the term Philosophy suffers when applied to things that are anything but. Author C.B Robertson joins the show to talk about the metaphysical claims made by stoicism, some philosophical considerations when it comes to guns, agency, and we discuss popular books that may or may not be worth reading. Honor Culture, Dignity Culture, and more, as bad as a marketing pitch it may sound like, this episode is more worth listening to than describing. C. B.

Talk Back to MeThree elements provide the context for today's Topic: holding ourselves accountable in an environment that seeks to take advantage of it, the projection of conflicting categories of people, and the paradigm shift apparent in Gun Culture. Dr. Rigney has left his position as the President of Bethlehem Seminary, with articles stating that it's partly because of his affinity or support for Christian Nationalism. This comes at a time when terms of this sort are often defined by the people least qualified to do so. We see this happen in debates around Guns in the United States.At the same time categories are being declared in conflict with one another, and in this case, it's by supporters of the aggressor. Reading "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions" by Thomas Kuhn identifies a way of describing the shift in Gun Culture, and while many are trying to figure out what that means, it would suggest we are in the time between paradigms, one of searching. So we posit what a few of the examples and core principles should emerge in the new one. Support the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comMerch Available at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeAs much as the topic of Radios typically focuses on two subjects: Military/Citizen Application, and the strengths/weaknesses of individual systems, this conversation on radio-based centers on something made relevant by recent events. Alex, of Mojave Repeater answers the question of what he would be looking for as far as radio capability and proficiency in an active shooter response scenario. When last we spoke with Alex in episode 013, we talked about the differences between digital and analogue radios, a subject that comes up frequently in Gun Culture. This follow on asks questions closer to home in light of the violence in Nashville. Mojave Repeater can be found onInstagram at : @mojave.repeater. On YouTube at: www.youtube.com/@MojaveRepeaterAnd their Gear/Training can be found at www.mojaverepeater.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comMerch Available at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeAs the world cringes in anticipation for the unrequested humor that will be forced upon us on April First, we interrupt the regularly scheduled content of this show to present Administrative Results. The big chimp himself joins the show to talk a little bit about taking a step into the unknown, the new frontier of the internet, and the cultural ramifications of Doxxing in this caustic environment. Administrative Results is still most likely shadowbaned on Instagram, but can be found at @administrativeresultsor his Linktree : linktr.ee/administrativeresultsSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comMerch Available at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactellcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeThe subject of Ukraine cannot be separated from politics. We can come to this conclusion either from and ontological angle: Clausewitz "War is politics by another mean," or by the account that in America, any conversation on the war in Ukraine must first wade through a political prelude before any real conversation can occur. Iain Harrison returns to the REDACTED Culture Cast to bring his perspective on the War in Ukraine to the table. While we are often aware of the tribalism seen in others, this conversation functions as a healthy opportunity to reconsider our premises, and look at the Ukrainian War differently. Plenty of lessons have been learned from this most recent conflict, and we look at how those apply to the individual. Iain Harrison operates as the Editor-in-Chief of RECOIL Magazine.In addition to their printed content, more can be found on www.recoilweb.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comMerch Available at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactellcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc

Talk Back to MeThe art of Gypsy Walters can be seen across Gun Culture. From shirts, stickers, and patches, to tattoos, and beyond. It shows that Gun Culture isn't purely utilitarian. While we often justify our purchases and pursuits for their utility, whereas our true motivation might be located somewhere else. There was a time when tattoos were an identifier of danger, but with a changing of the guard, tattoos became commonplace in the last 15 years. While this was going on, Gun Culture was shifting towards broader involvement. For Gypsy Walters, it was always his goal to make a living off his Art.So we address what that means for him, and take a look forward to what comes next. SEASON 1 // OPERATION 2: [INTO BEASTS] We came together to produce this operation, and begin talking about the meaning behind INTO BEASTS.Follow Gypsy Walters on Instagram at: @gypsywaltersFor Merch and Tattoos: houseofwolvesslc.comSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comMerch Available at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactellcSupport the REDACTED Culture Cast at redactedculture.locals.comSSP and boutique products at redactedllc.comFollow us on Instagram at @redactedllc
