What's good world, we back from the crypt with some more hood philosophy shit, and in this episode I'm once again running back the week's events through a philosophical lense.

Up first I ask - is their any merit to the idea of the ZOG - 'Zionist Occupied Government' - or is it just another one of many baseless anti-Semitic conspiracy theories?

All's I know is feds icing Rene Good in Minneapolis doesn't seem to bode well for the rest of us, especially considering the close relationship the IDF have with ICE, and this for sure aint a conspiracy homie. It's the imperial boomerang and dual-state theory in full force, and while right wingers are busy celebrating Good's merking under the guise of their thinly veiled xenophobia, they may very well be helping usher in a far greater and realer evil than a couple of Brown folk from around the way just looking to make a better life for themselves.

Speaking of Brown folx from around the way, I delve further into the Venezuela incident by discussing the narco-terrorism that is not only alive and well in the United States today (I'm looking at you, Sackler family), but that which has helped establish political dynasties that have shaped the landscape of American and global politics by way of the Opium Wars (shout out the Russells, Taft's, and Roosevelts).

I also talk about the importance of dialoguing across differences, and idea that was introduced to me in my doctoral program by my then dissertation advisor Jeniffer Clifton that asks us - what's preferable, World War 3 or reaching out folx on the other end of the political spectrum to see if there's any way we can work this mess out.

I know what my answer is, and I have a feeling I may know what yours is as well, the real question is whether it's the same answer as the 'masters of mankind'.

Stay woke fam...
