    There’s a reason the History Channel has produced hundreds of documentaries about Hitler but only a few about Dwight D. Eisenhower. Bad guys (and gals) are eternally fascinating. Behind the Bastards dives in past the Cliffs Notes of the worst humans in history and exposes the bizarre realities of their lives. Listeners will learn about the young adult novels that helped Hitler form his monstrous ideology, the founder of Blackwater’s insane quest to build his own Air Force, the bizarre lives of the sons and daughters of dictators and Saddam Hussein’s side career as a trashy romance novelist.
    New episodes twice a week on iHeartRadio.

    This was so enlightening. I always wondered how my grandparents, who were staunch Baptists and grew up during the Depression and solidified their adult faith in the 40s and early 50s, were deeply liberal based on their faith and the Bible while my parents, who came to adult faith in the late 70s and through the 80s, were staunch capitalists with "proof" from the Bible/Baptist theology. Just...what a gross manipulation of millions of people.

      To anyone who's not a psychopath, Christianity is as dead as the Republican Party. It's all about "f*ck you, I've got mine!" and those are exactly the kind of people who'd rather chop their hand off than give a starving person a sandwich.

      I envy those who managed to experience the more authentic religion before capitalists got their claws in it. Either the church i was raised in was one of the first casualties or, probably more likely since it was basically a cult, was always shit. Which is a big reason why I'm no longer religious.

    The people who forever (further) ruined politics and Christianity in America had names and addresses.
    Citizens at large should really be told just how meticulously crafted and curated the propaganda was that shaped American culture and religion.
    By wealthy, influential individuals who wanted to mold culture to benefit them more.
    Jesus I think I'm finally radicalized.
    Learning that the 4th of July wasn't some wartime razzle dazzle morale play that Americans just decided to make into a national celebration, but instead a recent corporate conspiracy to make the public cheer for their own abuse, finally broke me.
    This entire culture, and all its sentiment, is unsalvageable bullshit.

    I live in a place that uses their air raid sirens for common boring stuff like alerting the fire department, so I’m completely numb to it. But I cannot imagine the amount of fear I would experience hearing it for the first time ever, AND it’s synchronized with every church bell in the area going off. I would assume it’s the rapture tbh

    45:25 Baseball games in Japan (usually the high school tournament in Koshien Stadium and other stadia) still use the air raid siren to indicate beginning and end of game. Like, come up with a slapping anime tune or something, don't dilute the emergency siren, guys.

    Another banger as always-
    Quick correction, Skousen was not a Mormon elder, though it is true he had immense impact on an LDS apostle, Ezra Taft Benson, who later became the president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, so his earlier fixation on Skousen's work and the Birch Society creeped into the cultural worldview of Mormons in the United States.
    Ugh.

    • @alexcarter8807

      I'm not sure what I love the most about the Mormons. Whether the most Godly will get their own planet to reign over in the afterlife, or the fact that they teach people, now, in modern times, that if they're brown or black skinned, that's an indication of the amount of "sin" in them and if they're good Mormons, God will bleach them out.
