Human society is run not by the people we see but the people we don't see. The men (and women) behind the curtain. I feature stories which are examples of this fact.
In this episode...
Jews could flee Germany on a massive scale if the nation does not cause halt the rise in anti-Semitism. One in two Jewish people are concerned about the rise in anti-Semitism. This is according to German minister Heiko Maas. Germany will push for holocaust denial to be outlawed. I talk about the wider context of this story.
Donald Trump has praised Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk and claimed that 'we need to protect people who invent the wheel'. Trump claims Zuckerberg might run for President. I talk about why this is a spurious statement.
Greta Thunberg says nothing has been done to tackle climate change. Historian Niall Ferguson says "I don't see [Thunberg] in China or Delhi". I talk about why this doesn't happen.
And finally, I talk more about the Australian Bushfires.
