Episode 13.8 — Ideologies for a Brighter Future
A clear-eyed, urgent episode on choosing ideals that build rather than break. In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s killing, Matthew von Trapp lays out a framework to reject the ideology of hate, re-center on truth and the Golden Rule, and rebuild community from the family outward. You’ll get a practical, non-violent playbook for engaging opponents, spotting manipulation cycles, and setting shared expectations for a freer, more moral society.
