Description

The gap between reality, as most of us perceive it, and how we’re meant to talk about it continues to widen. Those brave or foolish enough to speak out pay a heavy social cost. In this episode, we use the reaction to comedian Dave Chappelle’s latest Netflix special to discuss the forced conformity spreading through social media and influencing our policy making at every level of society, including in schools and prisons. How did we stray so far from truth, and why is it so hard to correct our course?
