Is Western Civilization in its final throes like the end of the Roman Empire? We argue an emphatic NO! The West has gone through three cycles of being at its "fall", and not only can we recover from it again, we're already seeing the signs of that recovery.

Cryptocurrency pioneer and Artificial Intelligence investor David A. Johnston joins us to discuss how decentralized open source AI, powered by cryptocurrency, is bound make centralized corporate AI solutions obsolete. David is the author of the 2013 whitepaper "The General Theory of Decentralized Applications, Dapps" which defined for the first the Dapps model for building public blockchains & tokenized open source applications. This monumental paper laid the groundwork for smart contracts, meta protocols like the world's largest stablecoin Tether's Omni layer, and programmable cryptocurrencies like Ethereum. In 2014 he coined Johnston's Law: "Everything that can be decentralized, will be decentralized."Notes:David A.

Jimmy Dore is close to understanding the monetary system and just needs some coaxing to get over the finish line. The national debt isn't as big of a deal as everyone makes it out to be. The Federal Reserve is a public institution. The interest on the "debt" held by the Federal Reserve gets paid to the US Treasury. National debt = private sector savings.

The national debt and the debt ceiling are fake issues devised to keep us fighting over nothing. Interest rates are an arbitrary political decision. It's impossible for the US government to borrow US dollars. The government needs to spend before it can tax.

Understanding how appealing to intention can be used to manipulate you is one of the core components to understanding intellectual self-defense. People try to wave off their responsibility all the time simply by saying "I didn't mean it". However, there is a deeper question here: why is this manipulative technique SO EFFECTIVE, especially at the societal scale?Notes:-Intellectual Self Defense Crash Course: https://irida.tv/intellectual-self-defense/-Find more of our content at: https://irida.tv/-Check out our Forbidden News Aggregator at: https://dissentwatch.com/

It often feels impossible to resist large organizations that have become entrenched and corrupt. How could anyone possibly fight back against entities that have access to so many resources? Any vested interest develops a weakness, and resistance must include exploiting that weakness.This episode is a practical, real world example of what it takes to successfully challenge and old organization with a new one!Brent Urbanik of EducateMiami.org joins Dylan Moore of Irida TV to discuss his work to create a new teachers union in Miami-Dade County, Florida to challenge and replace the existing teachers union.

Prophecy of the future of the saved and the damned, or a made up nonsense that's attractive to lazy people who want to be lazy? You can't claim to be good while standing down to evil, and belief in the Rapture causes people to do just that. The Rapture is a modern interpretation of the book of Revelation that has never been the accepted understanding in church history until the 1800s. The moral of the story of the Rapture is "Stand down, because you're already saved".Notes:-Why the Rapture Isn't Coming with Michael Sullivan: https://irida.tv/spirituality/why-the-rapture-isnt-coming-with-author-michael-sullivan-ep-18/-Preterism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preterism#:~:text=Preterism%20holds%20that%20the%20contents,of%20Jerusalem%20in%20AD%2070.-The Armageddon Deception by Michael Sullivan: https://www.amazon.com/Armageddon-Deception-Eschatology-Biblical-Response/dp/1615292047/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.xnQRtZ3_YvjAOp6nddiZzFkICVPd_5Z8mP3wphwOzWc.Z437lWlETdxFZRgQ6GXbh0hzMtS2C0Q9OIocdGUhd2M&dib_tag=se&refinements=p_lbr_one_browse-bin%3AMichael+J.+Sullivan&s=books&sr=1-1-Find more of our content on https://irida.tv/-Check out our forbidden news aggregator at https://dissentwatch.com/
