Liberty v Safety Pt 3: Resolve

Resistance Pride 6.2.26

What if we all decided that everybody has a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? Full stop. Might we then vote for that instead of against groups of people we don’t understand? Just a thought. Vic Meyers for Democracy. [https://vicmeyersfordemocracy.com/] This is a public episode.

Resisting Grift 6.1.26

Is your state trying to do what Colorado is trying to do? Should states be paying the wealthiest people on Earth to make life harder for their citizens. In this video I explore this question with respect to data centers. I also point out the relationship they have to our growing mass surveillance state.

Resistance Brief 5.31.26

Congress wants a raise. Congress wants to keep its stock trading privileges. Congress left Washington early rather than take difficult votes. At the same time, older Americans are being told they must work or volunteer for food assistance. This video examines the growing gap between what Congress expects from ordinary Americans and what many members of Congress expect from themselves.

Resistance Brief 5.29.26

I’ve been thinking about a simple contradiction. If government is evil, corrupt, and illegitimate, why would someone want to serve in it? This video examines Colorado legislators with ties to anti-government activism, the political money that supports them, and the growing disconnect between the oath of office and the people taking it. Maybe the most important question isn’t who they are. Maybe it’s why they wanted the job in the first place.

Resistance Hope 5.28.26

Thinking about America lately can put a person in a funk. This video started there. But after thinking about the similarities between modern America and the early 1930s, I found a silver lining that I didn’t expect. History has warnings in it.It also has patterns. That’s what this video is about. This is a public episode.
