Colonial Psyops with Lara Sheehi in conversation with Nick Estes

pre ordered the book. So grateful for Lara and their work

I was researching "Colon Polyps"" how the hell did I end up here?

Super looking forward to continuing parts
Great thanks for all your works

Monotheistic religions, and especially Christianity, have been psyop programs throughout history, and still going strong.

3 people saying nothing for an hour and a half is a psychic intrusion. Problem in the US is lack of universal healthcare, car dependent burbs, and factory farming. Laws on the books mandate sprawl and that fosters car dependence and owning a car is expensive. The solution is to organize locally to upzone and eliminate minimum parking requirements. Personally most anyone reading this might choose to stop buying animal ag products (meast/eggs/milk/fish/etc). Because most all animal ag is factory farmed and because factory farming is cruel and contributes to global warming and because factory farms are breeding grounds for pandemics. Animals think and feel and suffer if animal don't matter why should humans matter? What are we fighting for?

1:05:22 don't despair. these things work. thank you Red Nation.

And does anyone EVER mention that the Ayatollah has had a Fatwejh on nuclear weapons for over two decades? Weapons of mass desruction 2.0!

Lara didn't want to correct you, Nick, but I've heard her thank others for pronouncing her family name "SHEE-high". 😙

Heard no mention of the two revolutionary psychologists in our midst, Drs. Amos Wilson & Bobby E. Wright.

Love to here how Yurok tribe is buddy buddy with Clinton’s under sex trafficking scandals and freeing a river, or we gonna snuff that under the rug if you’d like I can share the photo

30:00 Nothing can get me high enough or low enough where I couldn’t agree more with Lara Sheehi!

🙌🏽❤️🙌🏽❤️🙌🏽❤️

Lara, Nick, Jared, (and Sina!) I'm about halfway through the episode and I'm loving it! I want to plug two psyop-focused podcasts that I started listening to in 2021 and have really held up over the years: (the now discontinued) Programmed to Chill and Subliminal Jihad. I'm surprised that the hosts of Subliminal Jihad haven't made it over into the tankie therapy extended universe, but I imagine it's only a matter of time. In fact, they're connected by the Trillbillies podcast, which regularly has Professor Aviña on, so they're connected in a way. They are a treasure trove of sober analysis and hands-dirty deep research. Much love from occupied Cherokee-Muskogee!

Them things we know that we didn't know we knew
33:16 1:29:49 Here she describes co-opted environmental efforts. This includes the 'Big Greens' and others, that keep the people negotiating, active, distracted and preoccupied while the power's that be buy politicians who make laws that in-prison them that ​care.
As revealed​; throughout history: Most REFUSE to see and are comforted by inactive action. Satisfied with the crumbs. 'Domesticated'.

"Under the Trump administration, aesthetics itself becomes a battleground, a weaponized field where power works on desire, memory, bodies, and pleasure to consolidate domination."

The subject of psyops is crucial, not just for people on the left but for us all. Psyops are the bread and butter of the far-right and the white racists in the west, and it has evolved greatly since the days of these racists rolling around in the streets, pouring fake blood on themselves, and shouting ‘look what these brown people did to me.’
Here in England where I live, psyops are very advanced, where the far-right is embedded within the state and media apparatus on a granular , and societally on neighbourhood levels . Here, the latest of iteration of distorting reality by the far right is the use of street theatre for example. As a case in point, something that ppl can check by simply googling, is where their has been a rash lately, and in various cities throughout the country, of a high profile presence on the high streets of these cities of homeless veterans. These veterans usually are sat in the busiest part of these city and town centres, and usually dressed in full fatigues, some adorned with medals. In tandem with these are newspaper campaigns, where these supposedly homeless veterans are featured, which whose subject is immigration and specifically immigrant housing at the expense of the indigenous population.
That’s just one example, and like I said people can look into this for themselves. The far-right have been faking, hoaxing and false-flagging for decades now, and it thus that we’ve arrived at the broken world we’re in….because none of their devious psyops devices have truly been correctly interrogated because left intelligentsia are fearful of being called conspiracy theorists, and thus the insanity goes on unchecked.

Lara's book on psychoanalysis under occupation is essential reading..than you for this conversation

The moment may be hard, but it's not as hard as the intro beat.

And then over a few decades the psy-op gets co-opted into something different to make sure the people are further sidetracked.
