AJ Smuskiewicz on Searching for Truth in the Empire of Lies
Description
Author AJ Smuskiewicz discusses his new book Searching for Truth in the Empire of Lies. It recount's AJ's career journey from graphics designer to biologist to writer-editor to damnable heretical dissident, and includes essays published at Intellectual Conservative, The Unz Review, and VT Foreign Policy, as well as at his personal website.
It seems AJ used to be within hailing distance of consensus reality. He once made a living editing work that fell squarely within the Overton Window of acceptable discourse. But somewhere along the way, something happened. What was it? Was he kidnapped by space aliens in Peotone, Illinois, as he asserts in the book, and given a "dissident implant"? Or was it the COVID-era mass formation psychosis that alienated him? Or maybe he just imbibed one official lie too many, and suddenly felt the need to vomit them all out? Tune in to the interview and find out what happened to AJ.
