The discussion dives into BioWare's evolution from gaming icon to a developer focused on socially conscious narratives. The impact of GamerGate is revealed through personal experiences with social media moderation at BioWare. They critique the shift in storytelling, where political themes became mandatory rather than optional. The complex dynamics of apology culture and its influence on public figures is explored, alongside reflections on gaming's cultural transformation and the challenges faced in navigating ideology within the community.

Political theorist Carl Schmitt introduced the friend/enemy distinction in his book "The Concept of the Political," but as his work has gained notoriety, the concept has been heavily misrepresented. The author and political scholar Michael Millerman joins me to clarify the friend/enemy distinction and discuss Leo Strauss' thoughts on the works of Schmitt. Follow on:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148afSubstack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyreGab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyreYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyreRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:fInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/Today's sponsors: Visit https://isi.org/ to learn more about internships, fellowships, and resources to help conservative students.Visit https://www.jobstacking.com/masterremote Learn more about your ad choices.

Democrats love to champion "our democracy," and Republicans love to reply "America is republic, not a democracy," but few are able to explain the difference between the two. We look into the nature of republics from the classical period to the modern day, drawing on thinkers from Aristotle to Machiavelli to Madison. What is a republic, and how can you keep it?Follow on:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148afSubstack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyreGab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyreYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyreRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:fInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/Today's sponsors: Visit https://isi.org/ to learn more about internships, fellowships, and resources to help conservative students.Visit https://www.jobstacking.com/masterremote Learn more about your ad choices.

Donald Trump has delivered an earth-shattering loss to the American Left. The reality television star did not just achieve a convincing win in the Electoral College but also secured the popular vote and maintained down-ticket momentum with Republicans capturing the Senate and possibly retaining the House as well. This kind of definitive mandate for the opposition would usually cause a political party to reflect on the policies or rhetorical strategies that led it to a devastating loss, but the Democrats are having none of that. Follow on:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148afSubstack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyreGab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyreYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyreRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:fInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Christianity began as a persecuted religion in the Roman Empire, but by 350 A.D., it had spread and come to hold great influence. Julian, the last pagan emperor, rejected Christianity and attempted to restore the Hellenic traditions of Rome. The emperor even went so far as to try to rebuild the Jewish temple, hoping that this would undermine a core Christian prophecy, but failed in his efforts. Alex Petkas, host of the "Cost of Glory" podcast, joins me to discuss Julian's failed attempt to revitalize a dying religion in the face of cultural change.Follow on:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148afSubstack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyreGab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyreYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyreRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:fInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/Today's sponsors: Head to https://magicspoon.com/AURON and use the code AURON to save $5Visit https://www.jobstacking.com/masterremote Learn more about your ad choices.

Leftists spent years calling Donald Trump a fascist who would imprison or even kill his opponents. Now, these total cowards are talking about a peaceful transfer of power to a man they called Hitler. Leftist pundits are also noticing a collapse of support and subscribers as Democrats burn out and tune out. Podcast host J.

This video is the first in a series exploring hyperagents and the role that post-human forces can exert on modern politics. In this installment we explore how tradition and culture shape human civilization and the role that technology and ideology can play in radically altering those cultures. War, conquest, trade, and religion can create organizations that begin by serving particular nations but eventfully shape human behavior to serve their interests.Follow on:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148afSubstack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyreGab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyreYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyreRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:fInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/Today's sponsors: Visit https://www.jobstacking.com/masterremote Learn more about your ad choices.

After a vicious knife attack left several children dead, the U.K. government assured citizens that the murder had no connection to Islam and even arrested citizens who claimed otherwise.
