Breaking Free of Psyops Ep. 20: Jack the Ripper and Solomon's Temple

Matthew Ehret pairs up two subjects you'd never expect to share a slide deck: a 19th century Whitechapel serial killer and the modern push to rebuild Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem. He takes on the popular royal conspiracy theory behind the Ripper murders, the one made famous by a certain Johnny Depp movie, and argues the real story runs deeper into Templar revivalist networks, Freemasonic ritual symbolism, and organizations like the Roundtable movement and Theosophy that emerged as the British Empire looked increasingly shaky. Expect a wind through King Edward III's Order of the Garter, Cecil Rhodes, and the long afterlife of the Templars as they shapeshifted into the Jesuits and Rosicrucians. Ehret ties it all back to why certain modern figures keep referencing the same ancient symbols today. Equal parts true crime and secret society deep dive, this one is not for the faint of heart.
