BHoP#059 The Slow Avalanche

September 23, 2021 ·

Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk follow up last week’s discussion on the nature of the Left with its counterpart, the Right. They discuss the cynicism and apathy of the right which feels that it can do nothing, how the right lacks any direction other than opposition to the left, and its growth whenever it becomes assertive in its message. They also discuss the role of masculinity and violence in politics, and conclude by saying that you cannot wait for a hero to save you from evil days, but must become that hero yourself.
