Theologian and historian Dr. Martin Erdmann explores the concept of Orwellian perpetual war in the modern era. Drawing on the works of George Orwell and historian Harry Elmer Barnes, Erdmann argues that contemporary conflicts like the war in Ukraine are often “phony wars” designed for domestic control rather than military victory. The discussion suggests that global elites use these manufactured tensions to consolidate power, build up technocratic defense industries, and forestall economic collapses through national debt. Erdmann interprets the rise of multipolarity and regional blocs—such as the European Union and Eurasian Union—as strategic steps toward a unified world federation. Ultimately,…

Artist Anthony Freda describes his professional evolution from marketing cigarettes to children and war to the public for NYT and WSJ to eventually finding a home in alternative media as a dissident political artist in order to maintain his moral integrity. The conversation explores the heavy cost of dissent, including professional blacklisting and legal persecution for challenging official narratives. He expresses deep concern over the budding digital prison and particularly the rise of AI, which he views as a threat to human sovereignty. Anthony frames current global events as a spiritual battle between light and dark, urging listeners to resist…

Financial expert Adam Taggart analyzes the current state of the global economy, emphasizing a K-shaped recovery where a small group of asset owners thrives while the working class struggles with inflation and diminished purchasing power. He expresses significant concern regarding the rise of AI and robotics, noting that these technologies may permanently erode labor’s bargaining power and increase social instability. Despite these internal risks, Taggart remains bullish on the United States, arguing that its geographical advantages and the enduring global dominance of the U.S. dollar make it the strongest player in modern geopolitics. To hedge against currency debasement and systemic…

Hrvoje Moric, of GeopoliticsandEmpire.com and GeopoliticsandEmpire.Substack.com stopped by Mind Matters and Everything Else with Dr. Joseph Sansone to explore the broader geopolitical and technological implications of the war with Iran, the accelerating push toward digital technocracy, and what we both see as the transformation of global governance structures. I opened the discussion by arguing that the United States and Israel had effectively launched a second Pearl Harbor style attack on Iran within six months, and that many people failed to recognize that America’s defeat in the conflict revealed significant weaknesses in American military and geopolitical power. Hrvoje framed the conflict…

For the past few years I’ve collaborated with Mikkel Thorup of Expat Money. We’ve guested on each other’s programs and I’ve been invited as a regular speaker to his annual Expat Money Online Summit. In fact, during last year’s VIP Panel I accurately forecast the military intervention in Venezuela and what I believe to be the coming military shenanigans in both Cuba and México…all in the name of the Technate. Mikkel has also been gracious enough to occasionally support and sponsor Geopolitics & Empire. He’s all about internationalizing, diversifying, and hedging one’s bets in a world increasingly on edge. Which…
