✍️ Episode Summary:In this unscripted firestarter, I dig into the weird cultural lag happening in conservative spaces — where everyone suddenly wants to be edgy, rebellious, and “based”... now that it’s safe.
We’re seeing late Biden jokes. Vax memes in 2025. People acting like liberty is a personality trait.But where were these voices when it actually mattered?
I break down the difference between conviction and cosplay, why true satire requires risk, and why being a loudmouth after the fight is over doesn’t make you a warrior. It just makes you late.
Oh, and yes — we talk cat videos, Apocalyptiverse updates, and what’s coming next for Support Our Savior and Harbinger Arc 2.
