Kind of an urgent question (trying to find a place to ask it since I don't have posting kind of social media): my Google feed and searches have changed ENORMOUSLY in the last week, or so. It clearly has a slant towards legitimizing the new administration. It feels like a crazy-making maze I can't get out of. Is this happening to anyone else?
1) What is up with all the hippie punching in this episode? It's very weird listening to a pod that veers off from talking about anti-trust to suddenly start attacking people for not thinking that letting a crypto grifter run US policy and smash all checks on executive power is cool. For those of us who don't spend all our days inside the Beltway, it seemed to come out of nowhere and have nothing to do with anything that had come before.
2) Wondering if you've seen this book and if so what you thought:
