A Great John Taylor Gatto Interview
...and my article about psychological warfare
This is a very quick post to share two things. One is my article on psychological warfare that was published by Dr. Mercola. I want to share it before the 48-hour window runs out. I would like to point out that “psychological warfare” is simply a modern, trendy term for good ol’ “trickery, manipulation, and deceit.”
The other thing is a fascinating interview by John Taylor Gatto from 2014. I have loved his work for a long time but somehow never came across this interview.
It’s a very long interview, probably impossible to watch in one sitting—but it’s full of gems and insights. There are a few factual errors (please check out the notes on the screen) but they are insignificant comparing to how interesting the interview is overall. It is also a great joy to see a human being with such clear eyes.
John Taylor Gatto passed away in 2018, may he rest in peace.

A Great John Taylor Gatto Interview
Hey Tessa,
JIC someone is wondering, the interview series was conducted by Richard Grove, who has a fantastic weekly podcast called Grand Theft World.
Also, in this absolutely must watch documentary, they bring up many times Carroll Quigley’s Tragedy and Hope.
Here’s a summary an introduction to Quigley’s 1300 page literary/academic book. Also a must, for anyone who wishes to understand “where we are and how we got here”

I have seen several interviews with him and I sure wish he were around when we were fighting Common Core. I have a couple of his books too. Thanks for posting the interview. If I can squeeze it in to my Substack for next week I will surely do so.
