Love this! Menticide is a topic that happens daily and we need to be aware of it — and how to stop it: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/democide-and-menticide

Will look to listen in!

Clicked on unorthodoxy...and saw the word ...democide, which sure describes our government's actions in passing The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986...giving an industry, which was going out of business from all the multi-million dollar lawsuits against it, because of its 'deadly and defective vaccines'..NO Liability for injuries and deaths!

That's a good example, but you could literally fill a thick book with more. I am constantly baffled how people regard gov't with reverence and worship on the one hand, and at the same time, declare the evils of patriarchy/racism/etc etc. being perpetuated by them.

How people hold both those things in their mind at not see the psy-ops in play on them truly boggles me. They're not so good at it as to be totally invisible, it takes the listener agreeing to being gullible and never questioning their own beliefs or why they hold them.

Our government's focus.. promoting money-making industries ...is wiping out the people, the environment, the animals, the insects and all life. I guess this can be called democide.

John, watch a few minutes of this. The West is hardly alone in mass psychosis and mental illness that seem to have structural roots in largess and economic success, at least to me.

Menticide, the killing of the mind or "mente", what our government and system do. I didn't know that already had a name. Thanks for enlighten me!

I just bought a book recommended by the Claremont Institute The Ruling Class by Codevilla and I think he treats this topic, how they are ruining the Republic.

Listened to this recently and what a joy, 3 (mostly) hours of you, John Leake. You are one of the best speakers ever. (I might think this because I was a history major)
