I had a great conversation recently with Steve Johann on his podcast The Lion Zone. It was my introduction to his show, and you never know how it’s going to go the first time with a host, but Steve and I hit it off and saw eye to eye on every topic raised. It made for a very enjoyable discussion, and I hope you get a lot of out our exchange of insights.
The focus of the show was how to avoid being deceived by state propaganda. As Steve said while introducing me, “I like to educate people on how not to be deceived, and you're a perfect guest for that.”
We talked about the psychology of why people choose to be deceived and a broad range of topics including the US role in the Israel-Palestine conflict, Trump’s war on Iran, occult symbolism in Washington, the history of US imperialism, myths about Abraham Lincoln and the misnamed “Civil War”, the government-enforced medical cartel masquerading as a “health care” system, the vaccine religion and systematic violation of the right to informed consent, censorship of truth, and how the Federal Reserve system exists to economically enslave us.
This is a conversation you don’t want to miss!
Interview Summary
Specific topics we discussed include:
- How government propaganda creates a “state religion” that facts and logic struggle to penetrate.
- Why questioning your own beliefs is essential to breaking free from indoctrination
- How the public school system teaches myths about the role of government in US history
- How the US has consistently waged wars on false pretexts, from the Spanish-American War to Trump’s ongoing war on Iran.
- How the government created a pharma-centric medical cartel that masquerades as a “health care” system

- How “vaccine misinformation” is used as a euphemism meaning any information, no matter how factual, that does not align with the public policy goal of achieving high vaccination rates
- The core fallacies of Keynesian economics
- How the Federal Reserve creates economic bubbles and effects an upward transfer of wealth from the masses to the politically connected financial elite
