About this episode
My guest is Natalie Wynn, aka ContraPoints, a video essayist and content creator. Our conversation is a sweeping survey of the online media landscape and recent political history. We discuss deradicalization, conspiracy, polarization, persuasion, justice, retribution, psychology, political philosophy and more. After 2024, the so-called “podcast election” cast new significance onto the role and impact of alt-media. We theorize an approach and arrive at strategic implications for how to move forward.
