This conversation covers Antony C. Sutton's "Wall Street Trilogy," (https://amzn.to/46lMS0O) argues that American financial interests played a significant, often overlooked, role in supporting and shaping various totalitarian regimes. It contends that Wall Street financiers, like those from J.P. Morgan and General Electric, provided financial and technical assistance to the nascent Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and the Italian Fascist state, viewing these regimes as opportunities for economic exploitation and control rather than ideological adversaries. The text further suggests that figures such as Franklin D. Roosevelt were deeply connected to these financial elites, and that his New Deal policies mirrored "corporate socialism," which centralized economic power. It also touches upon attempts by certain American business figures to establish a fascist-style government in the United States, and highlights how information regarding these connections was sometimes suppressed.

This conversation covers Peter Duke's Substack article, "A User's Guide to Neuro-Linguistic Defense." It explores Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), a method that reveals how language shapes our perceptions and beliefs. The author explains that NLP, initially based on Noam Chomsky's "deep structure" linguistic theories, was developed to quickly train individuals in language manipulation. The piece highlights how linguistic patterns such as deletions, distortions, and generalizations are used to induce cognitive dissonance and influence beliefs, particularly through cause-effect and complex equivalence statements, and thought-terminating clichés. Ultimately, the article serves as a guide for recognizing and defending against these weaponized linguistic techniques by fostering critical thinking and encouraging the use of interrogative questions to challenge established "knowledge" and resist manipulation.
