About this episode
Let's admit it. The Trump presidency isn't just creating chaos and destruction with sadistic glee.
It's also exhausting.
What's exhausting isn't only the President, but also the mafia state he has built, many journalists who cover him, and progressives who frame the situation ideologically.
In this 9-minute episode, I describe seven causes of Trump Mafia State Fatigue:
- The Bullshit Asymmetry Principle
- The Gaslighting Effect
- Fly in the Ear
- Affirmative action for mediocrity
- The double-edged corruption sword
- Sanewashing
- Progressive ideological framing
