The Lie We Grew Up Inside: Scarcity For You Abundance For Power

Most of us don’t remember being taught what government is—but we remember the feeling: trust the process, be responsible, be patient. And when the story doesn’t match what we’re living—endless war, rising costs, shrinking agency—we’re told it’s because we failed. In this episode, Mark and Lynna pull that thread until the civics myth unravels, and a harder truth comes into focus: modern systems are built to extract participation while bypassing real consent.  Then we name the thing almost everyone senses but rarely has language for: we live inside two economies at once. The internal economy—wages, rent, debt, punishment for mistakes—runs on scarcity and moralized discipline. But above it is a sovereign economy where money is created, crises are funded overnight, and “limits” vanish when power is threatened. Scarcity for you. Abundance for power. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it—and you start asking the only question that matters: what does it mean to withdraw consent from a world that feeds on compliance? 

The Curriculum Of Empire: How Literacy Became a Machine for Control

They didn’t conquer us with force first— they conquered meaning. What if “education” was the most successful imperial technology ever built? From scripture to school bells to algorithms: the same machine, updated. In The Curriculum of Empire, Mark and Lynna trace a hidden lineage: how Christianity colonized conscience, how Prussia engineered the modern school, how empires rewrote alphabets to thin meaning, and how today’s algorithms finish the job—administering reality itself. This isn’t nostalgia. It’s a map. And it ends with a return: attention, land, community, and a living world beneath the words. What if literacy wasn’t neutral? What if learning to read was also learning to submit—first to a sacred text, then to the school bell, and finally to the invisible prompt? In this episode, Mark and Lynna tell a continuous story of empire as a curriculum: a long sequence of “software updates” designed to make human beings predictable. We move from Christianity’s interior conquest—where obedience becomes virtue and doubt becomes danger—into Prussia’s revolutionary invention of standardized schooling: time conquered by bells, bodies trained by repetition, and childhood turned into infrastructure. We step into Russia’s alphabet reforms as a case study in symbolic warfare: when a state doesn’t just manage belief, but rewrites the letters that carry memory. Then we bring it forward—into the present. Interfaces, metrics, dashboards, profiles: an administered reality where meaning becomes data and the human spirit is reduced to what can be measured. But we refuse despair. The episode ends with a hope-filled return to the living world—attention reclaimed, language that breathes again, land as relationship, real community, and a future human world that grows organically beneath the managed one.

Three Shots in Minneapolis: From ICE Raids to American Fascism

This Tuesday night, Transition Radio goes inside the killing that should shake every person in this country: the execution of Renee Nicole Good on a Minneapolis street. She was a U.S. citizen, a mother of three, and frame‑by‑frame analysis shows she turned her steering wheel away from ICE agents one second before they shot her three times. The official story calls her a “domestic terrorist.” The evidence tells a very different story. In “Three Shots in Minneapolis: From ICE Raids to American Fascism,” the episode follows the bullets back through a century of policy: from Teddy Roosevelt’s white‑supremacist “forward race” ideology and FDR’s Japanese American concentration camps, to Operation Wetback, Bush’s Patriot Act, and the creation of ICE as a domestic shock force. This is not “broken policy”—it is a system engineered for racial control, impunity, and profit, now supercharged under Trump’s second term. We connect Renee’s death to a much larger machinery: 68,990 people in ICE detention, seven deaths in custody in a single month, sexual torture at Fort Bliss, 32,000 children unaccounted for in federal hands, and Trump’s $4.67 million deal to send deportees—including U.S. citizens—to El Salvador’s CECOT mega‑prison. All 14 classic warning signs of fascism are now active in U.S. policy. This is the episode for anyone still wondering if “it can happen here.” It already is.

The Empire Playbook: Venezuela Is Not The First Time

This Thursday, we drop a special narrative episode that isn’t “Venezuela news.” It’s the story of how empires normalize lawless power—how the same playbook repeats for decades until it becomes invisible. One moment in the present… and a trail that runs backward through a century of regime change. We follow the pattern: economic choke points, recognition games, covert operations, client elites, sanctions dressed as morality, and “democracy” branding used like a weapon. Not as a lecture—this is cinematic storytelling with scenes, stakes, and the human consequences that always get pushed off-screen. By the end, you won’t just know what happened—you’ll recognize the mechanism when it appears again. This Thursday night, we trace the line from past interventions to the doorstep we’re standing on right now.
