Howdy ALL!!  Today we bring to a close Benjamin and I's discussion around the points and concepts he brought forward in his essay; "In Defense of the Authoritarian Impulse".   

It's been a wild and thought provoking ride.. One that I hope you all have enjoyed as much as I did.   

The inspiration for the thumbnail (on the youtube version) came from one of our rabbit trails regarding the inconsistency of law and the misuse of it through institutional corporate capture... aka regulatory capture.   

I will apologize in advance for my seeming inability to bring words to bear in this episode as I was pushing through some form of blooming illness... of which I'm still teetering on whether or not I will succumb to it. BUT WE PRESS ON!   

As always friends, I hope you enjoyed this. Please feel free to comment, like, subscribe, or share.   Do as you will!

As promised this my reading of Mr. Forney's, quite honestly, amazing essay on the topic of Latent Authoritarianism and it's function as the immune system of Society.   

I'm glad to have it put together prior to our finishing our dissection of his work this coming week.   

I hope you all enjoy his work as much as I did.   Be well!

We are continuing forward with the Forney Factor and our discussion regarding Ben's essay.

During our talk we traced through the evolution of red lining and how's it's progressed to include whomever isn't deemed "ideal" or acceptable.

I found what I believe to the be article mentioned! So enough blathering here, enjoy the show!

Not much else to blather on about here, so get to listening!
