Sovereign Nations
Welcome to The Causes of Things, a podcast from Sovereign Nations. The 1st century BC poet Virgil stated, “Blessed is he who understands the hidden causes of things.” This statement is as brilliant today as it was 2,000 years ago.
Primarily narrated by Michael O'Fallon, The Causes of Things is didactic in nature featuring a collection of teaching series & lectures, some of which are recorded specifically for this podcast, and some that are from public lectures. The show will offer discussion and information concerning a variety of complex ideas: The philosophical presuppositions behind the ideas that are aggressively shaping our world, the answers to those challenging ideas, and the necessary historical, hierarchical structure of the world as represented through the lens of Judeo Christian belief.

Simulacra | The Causes of Things, Ep. 30
We are in the process of transitioning from an analog. objective, real, physical world into a digital, subjective, surreal world. And this process of transformation is happening in every facet of our civilization
But what we are experiencing is a transformation of what is accepted as reality, when it isn’t reality: it is synthetic.
In this discussion enters Jean Beaudriallard and his understanding of hyperreality the creation of synthetic reality, which is not reality at all: it is the creation of something that is more real than real.
It is beyond propaganda, but propaganda is certainly utilized.
It is the creation of simulacra and simulation.
And in this world of simulacra, we are being told to ignore objective reality and embrace hyperreality: an unreality that has no connection with that which it claims to represent.
Our way of life, our media, our news and our body politic are now guided by the ever-changing synthetic world of the hyperreal.
Join Michael O’Fallon as he explores this topic on this week’s The Causes of Things.

How Did This Happen? | Public Occurrences, Ep. 59
As the foundational pillars of our society begin asking the most important questions of “why” and “how” the meltdown of all of our institutions has happened over the past 10 years, serious introspection is needed to ensure that:
1) We fix what is seriously damaged
2) Ensure that this never happens again
In pursuing this line of inquiry, it is incumbent upon those that were supposed to be the guardians of our institutions to ask questions not just of others - but of themselves.
Firstly, leaders of political institutions, faith-based institutions and educational institutions need to first acknowledge that they failed miserably.
In particular, the Christian Evangelical seminaries and parachurch ministries, who touted themselves as guardians of the truth, were blind, deaf, and dumb to the theological and ideological invasion in their midst. Warnings were not heeded, pleadings were dismissed and the result of this ivory tower hubris is that literally tens of thousands of woke pastors are now infecting the Body of Christ. The self-appointed guardians failed their duty - - and now are demanding the reigns of power and control to be placed back in their irresponsible hands.
In America’s corporate stables, gargantuan money from predatory investors such as BlackRock, Vanguard and others forced their way onto boards of seemingly impenetrable organizations with woke fascistic intentions. The result has been disastrous - creating a corporate governance class that is directing a previously democratic process.
Michael O’Fallon explores the who, how, and begins to unveil the “why” in today’s Public Occurrences both Foreign and Domestic.

Synthetic Reality | Public Occurrences, Ep. 58
The last two years have been difficult for nearly everyone on the planet outside of the owners of tech companies, Amazon, Walmart and others who benefited from the events of our world.
But where does reality and hyper-reality begin and end? Where has the synthetic taken over for the real in our world?
Michael O’Fallon explores this question in the 2022 debut of Public Occurrences Both Foreign and Domestic.

The Incarnation | Public Occurrences, Ep. 57
As we celebrate the birth of Christ and enjoy our Christmas season, we should recall that much of what we take for granted in the orthodox Christian faith was seriously challenged by the rise of Gnosticism in the 1st and 2nd centuries.
One of the core Christian doctrines that were under attack was the incarnation of Jesus Christ.
The 2nd century Bishop of Lyon, Irenaeus, stood strongly against the heresy of Gnosticism in his 2nd century writing titled “The Proof of the Apostolic Preaching” where he states:
“So, if He was not born, neither did He die; and if he did not die; neither was he raised from the dead, death is not conquered nor its kingdom destroyed; and if death is not conquered, how are we to ascend to life, having fallen under death from the beginning.”
In order for us to truly celebrate this Christmas, it is necessary to fully understand the coming of Christ in human flesh.

Critical Pedagogy | The Great Gaslight, Ep. 2 | James Lindsay & Michael O'Fallon
The majority of the conservatives and truly liberal in our nation are focused on the ideological threat posed by Critical Race Theory (CRT) in education, faith, and in our corporate sector. While understanding and providing solid answers to the claims of CRT is a necessary endeavor, it is important to help understand how these cancerous ideologies have spread throughout our education system. Just as Critical Race Theory approaches the topic of race from the perspective of Critical Theory (neo-Marxism), there is a Critical Theory of Education as well. Because the formal term for a theory of education is “pedagogy,” the application of Critical Theory both to and within education is known as Critical Pedagogy.
Join Michael O’Fallon of Sovereign Nations and James Lindsay of New Discourses as they walk through the foundations of Critical Pedagogy, revealing a key component of how the Great Gaslight has been arranged and is accomplished.

Introduction To The 4th Industrial Revolution | Public Occurrences, Ep. 56
There will be an attempt in the coming years to change nearly everything in our lives. Thanks to apathy and the lack of knowledge of the average citizen, there will be no stopping the inevitable attempt to dismantle our societal systems.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is the eventual goal of those that are seeking to transform our world to become a close parallel to what is now present day China.
In this episode of Public Occurrences Both Foreign and Domestic, Michael O’Fallon gives a brief introduction to the concepts and ideologies that are at the center of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

The Bishops of YouTube | Public Occurrences, Ep. 55
If you were listening to Sovereign Nations last week on YouTube, you might have noticed that things came to a rather abrupt stop if you were listening to us on that particular platform.
Our episode in the middle of last week titled "The Trojan Variant" was removed from YouTube and our account was put on a one week suspension.
Our crime? Saying the same things that we had said two years ago regarding the spread of Covid and how testing does not create ground zero location.
Exploding narrative myths is fatal to the subjective momentum created at progressive social media platforms like YouTube. And if you dare step on their narrative momentum, their algorithms will react both swiftly and harshly.

The Trojan Variant | Public Occurrences, Ep. 54
The story of the Trojan Horse has transcended the ages as an example of how an impressive seemingly strong object or plan would be attractive for a nation that later is shown to be filled with horrible and tragic consequences.
So too is the way that the Omicron variant is being used by governments and corporations around the world to shut down borders, declare emergencies and demand vaccine compliance.
But if you haven’t thought about it already, the contradiction of the orders is clear:
-The Omicron variant is reportedly mild in its symptoms
-The “powers that be” in public health and in governance are stating that the current round of vaccines might not be effective in protecting the vaccinated from the new variant
-At the same time the “powers that be” are mandating compliance with vaccinations
-So officials in public health and governance are mandating vaccinations that have shown to be ineffective in stopping the spread of the new variant and ineffective as therapy against Omicron
-At the same time, they are beginning to insist that toddlers be vaccinated as well
So what is actually going on here?
What is going on is that this has nothing to do with Covid, variants or protecting you from viruses.
It is all about forcing all of us into a new, complex, digital system.

The Alchemical Wizard of Oz | Public Occurrences, Ep. 53
The entirety of the population of the world has been led down a yellow brick road of fear, reflexivity, fertile fallacies to come before the throne of the mighty and powerful "Wizards" of our day who have done nothing but break their promises that we in a regretful act of trust, placed in their deceitful hands. Do you remember 15 days to flatten the curve?
The truth is, the Wizards of our new Oz have no interest in fulfilling their promises. The new Wizards of the grand technocracy desire only to shove all of humanity into a hell that there will be no escaping. The problem is, they have overplayed their collective hands over the past two years showing time and time again that they are not scientists, they are alchemists. They are creating a world through insanity like "Build Back Better" is meant to end our liberties and freedoms forever.

1621: The First Thanksgiving | Public Occurrences, Ep. 52
During the year of the Covid:19 Great Reset, most people in our nation either were unaware or completely forgot that 2020 was the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower Pilgrims landing in Plymouth.
How could we miss this important anniversary?
One of the reasons that we missed this incredibly important milestone event was that we were completely embroiled in defending our nation from the ideological and critical historical attack created by the fallacious 1619 Project.
We are also about to let the 400th anniversary of the first Thanksgiving that was enjoyed by the surviving Mayflower Pilgrims and the Native Americans that took place in November of 1621.
On today’s special Thanksgiving episode, Michael O’Fallon traces back the history of the 400th anniversary of the Thanksgiving celebration in Plymouth.
