Putting the "Total" in Totalitarianism Jul 20, 2022

Show notes

After a heroic Good Samaritan stopped a mass shooter over the weekend, Isaac had some questions. Why are the advocates for big government always so gloomy? Why do they gnash their teeth when individuals do well? Can we squeeze a Bill Waterson joke into a serious look at horrifying tyranny? All these questions and more will be answered.

Common Sense Radio Control Jul 11, 2022

Show notes

The ongoing demand for gun confiscations, body armor bans, and night vision limits now includes calls for... handheld radio controls! Isaac dissects a recent Slate article lamenting the ability of far-right extremists to use handheld radios to communicate after they have been de-platformed from Twitter.
Original Article: Far-Right Extremists Are Using Personal Radios to Plan Violence
To be honest, this only barely scratches the surface of all the preposterous assumptions the article is built on, but hey, it's a start. We specifically ignored the technical errors with this journalism like all the pre-existing SIGINT capabilities that exist, the fact that all spectrum around DC is monitored and recorded by a host of three-letter agencies, the wide proliferation of SDRs, and more - just because that would be an endless list of infinite rabbit trails.

Your Past and Future Gun Rights ft. Fudd Busters Jul 06, 2022

Show notes

The SCOTUS ruling on NYSRPA v. Bruen has a lot of implications for the future legal battles surrounding gun rights. This weekend Isaac was able to spend some time with Matt Larosiere from Fudd Busters, discussing the ramifications of this decision. It's a pretty wide-ranging conversation on past and current legal theory, but it also gets into what we can expect in the future.

The Tree of Liberty Jun 26, 2022

Show notes

As Independence Day approaches, we reflect on the Tree of Liberty. It's a pretty long metaphorical exploration, but it goes over the different branches on the Tree, some very recent Supreme Court Rulings, and ways that different trees have in the past been refreshed with the blood of patriots and tyrants with very different results.
