Anti-Semitism and Middleman Minorities
So we started off talking about the rise of anti-semitism, and went into a long debate on Thomas Sowell's theories on violence committed against "middleman minorities"
It's a very unstructured episode, with a lot of debate and rabbit holes. Enjoy.

Bro History Macroeconomic Forecast
Its bad. LOL
In all seriousness though, we started off the episode attempting to talk with Joseph Solis-Mullen about "what is left wing and what is right wing," and it unsurprisingly went down an economic rabbit hole which we think you'll like.

Genocide of the Germans in Yugoslavia
Following up from last time, On today's episode, we set the dive deeper into ethnic cleansing and subsequent genocide of the "Danube Swabian" Germans living in Yugoslavia after world war 2.
Importantly, we paint a picture of the brutality of the third reich towards the Yugoslavians before the end of the war as a backdrop for the brutality of communist partisans towards the remaining ethnic Germans in the region. We also struggle with reading some victim testimonies at the end, and it gets dark fast ... Fair warning.

The Ethnic Cleansing of the Germans
On today's episode, we set the background context for a topic in history that often isn't covered - the ethnic cleansing of Germans from European countries post WW2.
Covering the lead-up to the cleansing, we explore how it came about that up to 15 million Germans were forcibly displaced (or killed) from the lands they called home for generations.

Customer Reviews
Really enjoying the show!!
Four stars is a bit too low, but five means perfect, so 😕.
I’m a conservative, but tired of news and information with a spin to some political side. I perceive these guys are not trying to favor the left or right, but just give information. Each episode I’ve listened to has really kept my attention and left me pondering geopolitics better informed.
Anti-Semitic and middle eastern middlemen
You claim that you are not descending into taking a side and then on the next breath you clearly delve into taking a side.
It is a dispicable tactic and extremely dishonest.
The truth is that the USA should not be involved in any war that isn’t declared including funding a war. At the same time Hamas deserves to be destroyed. Israel isn’t doing themselves a favor by how they are conducting the war.
This is a very difficult situation. Regardless of who should or should not own the land., Israel exists now. Attempts to improve life in Gaza have been thwarted by Hamas. The people of Gaza were defeated in a war, but continue to fight.
History shows that this condition unchanged will eventually lead to catastrophic events. The Israel people are tired of the constant attacks by Hamas. The Israel government retaliates against the attacks but the conflict ratchets up each time.
I understand both sides, but reality is that Hamas should be defeated. However it should be done by the people of Gaza. Stop wasting time with revenge of the past and start making excuses for yourselves and improve your life by accepting the defeat and move forward.
History is full of injustices. Stop being a victim and make the best of your situation. Attacking Israel isn’t going to improve your life.
Meh
Not so good anymore
