The current climate of cancel culture is affecting people’s lives and mental health in all sorts of detrimental ways. People are afraid of having conversations. They are scared of sharing their opinions in fear that someone or some group of people will decide that they are “problematic” and go on a campaign to ruin their lives.

In this podcast, Bernhard and Laura discuss the emergence of cancel culture, how canceling links in with the idea of cultural Marxism, and how it has characteristics of Mao’s struggle sessions of the Cultural Revolution and Orwell’s “Two Minutes of Hate.”They explore how cancel culture links to the BLM and now Palestine protests, the issue of mobs of social justice warriors, and some tips on how to face cancel culture with courage.

In the Second hour, Laura and Bernhard explore this issue from an esoteric occult perspective, how cancel culture and cultural Marxism tie into the concept of wetiko, occult forces, entity possession, thought form hive mind entities, and egregores. They share personal stories about getting canceled and how they handled it. They also talk about how it links into Pluto in Capricorn and Totalitarianism (on both sides, left and right), how it relates to Pluto generations coming of age, how to step into your courage, raise your consciousness, and much more.

Palestine is being used as another Trojan horse for the cultural Marxist agenda
There are now “cancel mobs” regarding the issue of Palestine. Mobs of social justice warriors are convinced that in order to “decolonize” the world, they must cancel people en masse who they feel aren’t “speaking up enough”
