Who is Keith Knight and what is the Libertarian Institute?
He is the managing director of the Libertarian Institute. Also, he is the author of Domestic Imperialism, phenomenal book. I highly, highly recommend it. And of course, you guys over at the Libertarian Institute, we mentioned this when Scott was on last week, but you guys are in the middle of your fund drive. So why don't you real quickly, before we get into the show, tell people about the Institute and the fundraiser and how they can help.
Well, as much as we love complaining about the corporate press and the state education system and how horrible the universities are, we actually want to create an alternative for people to go to. At libertarianinstitute.org, use our search engine to type in any historical issue, any economic issue, any philosophical issue, and get the proper answer. idea of how society should be organized through social cooperation as opposed to coercion by the state. So that's what we're trying to do at the Libertarian Institute. Create a free online educational archive for everyone. You can write off any donations on your taxes. And if you pay 50 bucks, you can actually get a physical book in exchange for a donation.
So check it out at libertarianinstitute.org.
yeah dude i mean i've i've been saying this at this point because me and you both like we've we've known each other for years now and i've known scott for years and i knew i remember when scott was first starting up the libertarian institute when it was just an idea and then kind of watching it get bigger over the years and at this point it really is like people will ask me like oh what's a good reading list to get started
What is the woke left and how does it view economic disparities?
and i've been more and more finding myself going just go look at the books the libertarian institute has published i mean they really are like like i i your book domestic imperialism was phenomenal the um the best book on ukraine the best book on covid that i mean like literally like i'm not exaggerating if there's one book to read about the ukraine war it's provoked If there was one book to read about the COVID crisis, it's Diary of a Psychosis by the great Tom Woods. And those are just three of the list of books. What is that? It's got to be 20 books, something like that at this point that the institutes put out. And they're just every last one of them is phenomenal. So the best organization you can support if you are in a position to do it, please go help those guys out so we can keep doing all this cool stuff. All right. So me and you had talked the other day about doing this show and we were talking about like maybe doing an episode on kind of the woke left and then this argument now over the woke right.
And it just weirdly, we plan this, I promise you have to take my word for it, but we were planning this before I got in a little bit of a Twitter back and forth with Constantine Kassin last night. And it was just maybe part that kind of informed me because that was in my mind too, but it really was, we'll get back to that part, but it really was just like, It was one of those moments where I just found myself being like, but how can you, the same guy who said this, now be saying this and not have any type of like, you're not feeling like that cognitive dissonance vibe in your mind? Like it's not vibrating right now and you're going, huh, well, I can't really say this because my entire identity was that. And so anyway, this is wild to me.
