    The lack of comments here speaks volumes on how such important issues are totally neglected...

      I live in Caddo county and I've seen alot of it in OKC, as with alot of snobbery in general. Norman is even worse.

    No matter how much I watch Democracy Now on YT, they never show up in my feed as recommendations. This interview is vital and people need to hear this.

    Yep I served in Timothy McVeigh's army I served in the US Army in the early to mid-90s. And white nationalism was very persistent then. As it has always been throughout US military history.

    Spencer also did a great podcast with Chris Hayes (WITHPod). I was honestly surprised to hear something so excoriating on a MSM-adjacent podcast and with an MSNBC anchor.
    Kudos to Spencer and Chris Hayes.

    Did he's say " how deep the roots "WAS" of white supremacy in this country" Really! "Was". For this guy to use the word "WAS" is in it self denial.
    Besides that interesting .

    15:13 . . . "The general indifference by the American political and intellectual elites, to the relationship of the-war-on-terror, and the erosion of democracy, is also a very deep thread and very historically rooted (not just in the-war-on-terror, but before) and certainly, seeing that those connections HAVE to be made, in order to have any form of real democracy in this country, and safety and dignity for so many people.

    The day the towers came down my worst fear was that it would be used as an excuse for authoritarianism. I don't like being right.

    I haven't studied it much but I've heard McVeigh didn't work alone and had help from clandestine ops types. There were more involved in the bombing than just himself in other words.
