## Resource

Sub to the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/thejaampodcast In this episode, we break down the disconnect between rhetoric and reality among prominent right-wing internet figures and call out how the personas they preach online fall apart in a real world setting. We discuss the irony of “alpha” branding colliding with insecurity, contradiction, and performative behavior. We also pivot to politics, examining Donald Trump’s push to acquire Greenland and why. Finally, we draw parallels between ICE and the mindset of Confederate power structures, questioning whether current policies echo what the Confederacy might have looked like had it succeeded after the Civil War.
