Is the West collapsing, or is the planet? Political commentator Konstantin Kisin and rebel economist Steve Keen go head-to-head on the biggest questions facing the West: immigration, the debt crisis, climate change, Trump, China and the future of AI. Konstantin Kisin is a satirist, social commentator and author, best known as the co-host of the Triggernometry podcast and the author of ‘An Immigrant’s Love Letter to the West’. Born in the Soviet Union and now based in Britain, he has become one of the most prominent voices on free speech, culture and the rise of populism. Steve Keen is an economist, author and one of the most vocal critics of mainstream economic thinking. A former Professor of Economics, he is the author of several books including ‘Debunking Economics’ and ‘The New Economics: A Manifesto’, and is currently writing his upcoming book ‘How Economists Will Destroy Capitalism’. He is known for his work on private debt, financial crises and the failures of conventional economic models, and for correctly warning of the 2008 financial crash. They debate: ◼ Why almost everything governments tell you about debt and borrowing could be wrong ◼ Whether a socialist government could actually be good for the economy ◼ Why AI could quietly strip away human free will ◼ Why Konstantin believes mass immigration is pushing the West toward civil unrest ◼ Why Steve thinks climate change, not politics, is the real threat that dwarfs everything else Chapters 00:00:00 Intro 00:02:05 We're on the Road to Civil Unrest 00:08:04 Where This Leads: Unrest and Violence 00:11:11 I Grew Up in the Soviet Union 00:12:12 Steve Keen: Capitalism Is About to Fail 00:20:49 "We're Not Spending Enough" 00:23:58 Should Britain Drill in the North Sea? 00:28:39 "You Can't Defend Yourself Against This" 00:32:48 The World Government Admission 00:36:55 "Brace for Impact" - Climate Change Is Here 00:40:03 "It's Too Late" - What Breakdown Looks Like 00:45:11 The Trap Trump Walked Into 00:48:49 The Famine He Says Is Coming 00:50:53 How Does Trump Get Out of This? 00:53:35 Does America Need a Socialist President? 00:55:37 Why China Works and the Soviet Union Didn't 01:01:10 "Would You Prefer the Chinese System?" — "Yes" 01:05:09 Will Andy Burnham Change Britain's Trajectory? 01:11:00 Wokeism: A Hierarchy of Oppression 01:13:30 AI, Mass Unemployment and The Hunger Games 01:17:21 Best Case a Pet, Worst Case a Cow 01:20:54 Can You Program Love Into an AI? 01:26:07 Nobody Can Stop It So How Do You Live?
