TETC #7 (Reissue): War Propaganda Never Changes

This is a reupload of the TETC episode about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, originally published 8 Aug, 2022. The original description from that episode follows:

Ace and Dean-O, on the 77th anniversary of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, discuss the (largely) untold story of the Truman administration’s tragic decision to incinerate and poison hundreds of thousands of civilians. Other topics include the pernicious effects of propaganda and new information surrounding the killing of Breonna Taylor.

The late Justin Raimondo’s piece on the bombings can be found here.

The 1946 Strategic Bombing Survey, linked in the above referenced piece and commissioned by the Truman administration, can be accessed directly here.

The most important excerpt from the document reads:

“…certainly prior to 31 December 1945, and in all probability prior to 1 November 1945, Japan would have surrendered even if the atomic bombs had not been dropped, even if Russia had not entered the war, and even if no invasion had been planned or contemplated.”

TETC #54: Doing the Reading

Ace and Dean-O talk about the Trump clip we promised you on the last episode, the Current Thing causing strife over at Twitter, smoking crack and driving 172 MPH, and three SCOTUS opinions that are simultaneously misunderstood and some of the most talked about events since the last most talked about and simultaneously misunderstood SCOTUS case.

Note: Doucette talked about the 303 (gay wedding webpage) case and why the weird factual issues don’t really matter in this thread (screenshotted archive).

TETC #52: A Year of End Times

On this one-year episode, Ace and Dean-O forget this is the one-year episode. So, instead of doing anything special to mark the occasion, they did a normal episode about Biden’s performance as a speaker, Pearl and masculinity grifting, Trump’s indictment, and Mandela Effects/corporate psyops.

TETC #47: Curious, I ate one at 9pm...

When you go into a store, you're really going into a multidimensional la-la-land. Everyone around you is blitzed to the gils, they don't even see you, they're just looking for level 2 in their own personal wormhole.

The entire physical public sphere in America today is an open air crack den, invisible beneath a thin veneer of pseudo-functional metaverse complex.

Note: I (Dean-O) fucked up and said Twitter still had shareholders. It doesn’t, I just forgot Elon took it private in Oct. 2022.

TETC #42: Rhizomatic, Supersonic, Hypnotic, Funky Fresh with Hunter

Ace and Dean-O welcome back Hunter (immanentanarchy) to discuss the Deleuzian concept of the Rhizome, how it provides for the development of a way of thinking, and how it can help us to understand the social, cultural, and economic world around us.

Again, it’s big brain time.
