Episode 05: The Illusion Of Choice
“Rats in a maze are free to choose: left or right”
History has an almost endless supply of examples that demonstrate how damaging censorship can be. Whether its erasing entire cultures and historical event, or removing articles that expose corruption, as soon as people no longer have access to all the information they are unable to make informed decisions. We need to ask ourselves whether everything we understand about democracy is grounded in reality or merely a beautifully orchestrated fiction that pushes us into the corners it claims to protect us from.
In this episode we’ll discuss how censorship can can be weaponised and used to deliver blunt-force propaganda. Blow by blow. Piece by piece. Lie by lie.
