The Deep State Roots of Western Right Wing “Populism”_on The Antedote
Greg and Jeremy talk about the history of the movement which elected Donald Trump and which made Brexit and Marine Le Pen possible, tracing it back to mid 20th century anti Communist organizations like the John Birch Society as well as individuals such as Joseph McCarthy’s lawyer and Trump mentor Roy Cohn, and how this movement has long served as an arm of the same elites that its proponents claim to desire to bring down. They also discuss how identity politics plays a major role in bringing together Philo-Zionists and anti Jewish figures within the pseudo populist “alt right” movement long considered to be on the fringes of society.
