In Episode 7 of Season 16, hosts Gavin Stephens and Daniel Grant tackle the slow bleed of reality as social media continues to shape public discourse. They explore the alarming rise of far-right pipeline accounts using anti-immigrant, misogynist, and racist rhetoric to weaponize anger and spread dangerous ideologies.

Gavin shares his recent experience falling into an Instagram rabbit hole after seeing a post criticizing a person begging while owning a cell phone, unpacking how such simplistic far-right populism thrives in a capitalist system under distress. Together, they dissect the subtle ways these narratives take hold and the broader implications for society.
