Dictatorship: It's Easier Than You Think!

Welcome to our special live taping of Gaslit Nation! Thank you to everyone who joined us and asked such profound and moving questions in the live Q&A. It was a replenishing joy to hear from you. Thank you so much to the great Kasia Babis, a renowned illustrator and activist in Poland who created the visual world of the Gaslit Nation graphic novel Dictatorship: It's Easier Than You Think! available now on pre-order, and out everywhere starting June 13. If you haven't met the book's rascally narrator yet, Judge Lackey, see him at work by watching the book's fun animated trailer. Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman also joined the live-taping to discuss whether Putin's days are numbered (they are!), who will replace him (someone worse?), and whether the Freedom of Russia Legion liberating Russian towns and villages inside Russia from Putin's dictatorship is real (it appears so!), and what it all means. Will Putin use nukes, especially as Ukraine's spring offensive gets underway? What should the world's response be to Putin going nuclear? We're having another live taping Wednesday May 24 at 2pm EST with David Pepper on his new book Saving Democracy: A User's Manual for Every American. You can get access to that by subscribing to the show at the Truth-teller level or higher -- details will be sent out to those subscribers on how to join the live taping the morning of the event. Sign up at Patreon.com/Gaslit Our bonus episode this week will be the Q&A of our live taping. We'll be back with an all new Q&A answering questions submitted by our listeners at the Democracy Defender level and higher.
