Sinopse

Tatiana & Josh are joined by technologist and entrepreneur Giacomo Zucco. Giacomo is based in Italy and starts by sharing his experience during the COVID-19 outbreak in one of the nations hardest-hit during the start of the pandemic. Giacomo & Josh talk about government responses to the crisis and why opposing tyranny during an emergency is critical. Giacomo discusses why the nature of government is to increase its own power and control, and how that can create a self-perpetuating cycle of fear that drives opportunism. He also dismisses theories that the COVID pandemic was part of some conspiracy, pointing out that if the coronavirus is a bioweapon, it’s an incredibly poor one. Giacomo compares the suppression of rights in the US during the pandemic to the standing lack of individual rights in Italy. He also explains how misinformation and misinterpretation of data leads to the proliferation of conspiracy theories, and how pop culture, especially music, can help to alter behaviors and values.
