Welcome to your weekly dose of radical curiosity. Each [Monday or whenever it’s released], Civil Discord critiques the critics and tackles the top lines in news and society. Beginning with the premise that the ‘smallest common denominator’ of self-ownership is the greatest single driver of political, social, and cultural change, your intrepid co-hosts and colorful guests break down what individuals, communities, businesses, and finally institutions can do to find their footing, combat totalitarianism, and make their voices heard, wherever they stand on the issues. If you’re ideologically homeless, culturally tribeless, or tired of hearing the same rants about what’s not working, Civil Discord offers provocative counterpoints and fresh perspectives to keep you in the know, arm you with the arguments, and empower you to create the change you crave.

Episode 29: Suffer Neither Fools Nor Cowards

This week, Amanda shares her Lived Experience™ with Omicron, or the most anticlimactic cold ever. Then we discuss the Biden administration’s pivot on COVID-19, along with Rochelle ‘Speaking in a Personal Capacity’ Walensky’s admission that PCR tests—which are being used to sideline workers and shutter schools as we speak—can be positive for up to 12 weeks post-infection. In order to illustrate the devastating consequences of relying on PCR-determined case rates to make academic and economic decisions, Amanda and Maurice review UCLA’s woefully misguided ‘decision matrix,’ which will likely force its 97% vaccinated student body in front of their screens for the next quarter. The two close with a light item: New Year’s resolutions for libertarians.
