Oliver Niehaus: “If Due Process Goes Away, Anyone Can Be Deported” | DSH #1822

In this conversation from AmFest, political debater Oliver Niehaus breaks down why feminism still matters today, how online media ecosystems shape political beliefs, and why discussions around violence, gun control, and free speech have become so polarized. Oliver explains how social media algorithms reward extremes, why feminism is often misunderstood, and why he believes defending equal rights is compatible with masculinity. The conversation also explores political violence, gun policy, poverty, and the deeper root causes behind crime — moving beyond surface-level talking points. We close with a sharp analysis of Donald Trump’s second term, including tariffs, immigration, free speech concerns, and why anti-establishment messaging continues to resonate with voters. This is a calm, long-form discussion focused on ideas — not outrage — designed to challenge assumptions and encourage deeper thinking across political lines. 🎯 What You’ll Learn • 🧠 Why feminism is often misrepresented in online debates • ⚖️ How social media algorithms amplify extreme political narratives • 🗣️ The difference between advocacy and political violence • 🔍 Why gun violence discussions often ignore root causes like poverty • 🏛️ A nuanced critique of Trump’s second term and anti-establishment politics ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 — Do men and women really have equal rights today? 1:00 — How Oliver became known through online debates 2:10 — Why feminism is often framed as “anti-male” 3:25 — Masculinity, advocacy, and defending women’s rights 4:00 — Political violence and media narratives 5:10 — What crime statistics actually show 6:50 — Gun control vs. root causes of violence 8:00 — Poverty, policy, and systemic contributors to crime 9:40 — Free speech, immigration, and due process 11:40 — Trump’s appeal and why anti-establishment messages work 🎙️ APPLY OR CONNECT 👉 Interested in being a guest?
