Show Notes
In this episode we turn away from our pro-China roots and dive into why government exists — to protect us, serve us, and stop us from devolving into an Elon Musk free-for-all where tax cuts for billionaires supposedly help the working class. We discuss the short sightedness of the MAGA Republican party, the death of the DEI Deep State and why babies should get AIDs because they were born in the wrong continent. Welcome to capitalism for idiots, America Incorporated.

“White Terror” usually refers to Taiwan's period of authoritarian rule under the Kuomintang. In this episode, we use White Terrors deliberately — to examine how historical repression, political memory, and nationalist narratives continue to shape East Asia today, while echoing in Western politics as well.
This week, we dive into America's favorite medical mysteries — Trump's monthly bruises, Tylenol autism theories, and the reality that the default American lifestyle is basically a preexisting condition. Our pronouns are USA, and our healthcare is unaffordable. Plus: The social media response to Charlie Kirk's tragic death (thoughts and prayers for his family and friends) -- from ordering a Mint Majesty tea with two honeys "for Charlie" from Starbucks, to the confusing Tyler Robinson case, and the MAGA meltdown over who's to blame. From Jimmy Kimmel's cancellation whiplash to protests at Windsor Castle and a Hyundai raid in Seoul, it's a full tour of political absurdity — one part health crisis, one part culture war, and all chaos.
Unfortunately, we're once again discussing tariffs, China and young men -- I'm sure you believe us when we tell you it's exhausting. Trump's "Liberation Day" was a disaster as expected -- but his base can excuse a $2 trillion dollar loss as patriotic. When the rational for any illogical Trump action is that he has to "burn it all down," it becomes impossible to talk to these people. It's become the Salem Witch Trial of anyone with an IQ higher than a cocker spaniel. A college degree only "means nothing" to someone who could never get one. This week we're over it all. My head hurts please help. Cheers to the biggest tax increase on the American people since the 1930s coming from the party of small government.
