Commodifying Democracy (4/25/24)

The US Supreme Court is the final arbiter of the law, and is charged with ensuring the American people the promise of equal justice under law. They are not perfect and their decisions vary over decades to swing the political tied in a balanced fashion. Today, however, it’s commonplace to believe that if the court simply hears an argument they are corrupt or if they vote a certain way one group doesn’t like they are fascist. Right now this is ongoing with the Trump immunity hearings, and other cases such as the city camping regulation issue. The protests against the court, seeking to persuade its decision, are not only illegal due to the latter fact, but filled with people that apparently have no bills to pay on a Monday morning. This same idiocy, the controlled agitators, and all the political marketing can also be found in the big voices we choose to follow for guidance. From Kyle Rittenhouse and David Hogg to Ben Shapiro, Greta Thunberg, Russel Brand and Andrew Tate. Our opinions and viewpoints are largely derived from these sources as commodities to be bought, sold, or traded on the social and political landscape. -FREE ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachingsTwitter: https://twitter.com/TST___RadioFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachingsWEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early show access): http://thesecretteachings.infoPaypal: [email protected]: $rdgableBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/tstradioSUBSCRIBE TO NETWORK: http://aftermath.mediaEMAIL: [email protected] / [email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.
