‘The British response is one of the most controversial parts of its imperial history. They would now engage in warfare against the civilian population, burning thousands of farm houses, destroying crops and slaughtering animals.. Both Boer and Black Women and children were removed from their burnt out homes and placed in concentration camps. Conditions were so squalid that up to fifty thousand of them perished.’ Sources: Gerry Docherty and Jim MacGregor, Hidden History: The Secret Origins of the First World War: https://tinyurl.com/yckwpvnu The Boer War Documentary: Part 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc76E2kPxFM Part 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYw5hGczgtg Part 3 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oN2AyK0d7k Part 4 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFX1qY6e4H4 Scorched Earth: Anglo Boer War documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir59InBXdnY John Pilger: South Africa, Apartheid Did Not Die: http://johnpilger.com/videos/apartheid-did-not-die Caroline Elkins, Legacy of Violence: https://www.amazon.com/Legacy-Violence-History-British-Empire/dp/0307272427 Old Britannia - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZJI7W4tBgWV8f6NxRwGUmg/videos Donations in support of the show can be made at: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=ZL2DQE3EK446C

However that outcome is far from a foregone conclusion, when our reality shatters, what is to stop us from falling and falling until our feet land on the solid surface of the flat earth?

Alex Jones has recently been on trial for encouraging Sandy Hook conspiracy theories, which led to the harassment of family members of the deceased children. In this discussion Adam and I talk about the trial and its potential fallout, and also about the nature of conspiracy theory, where society needs an ‘Alex Jones’ figure ranting from the sidelines, or whether we’d really be better off without his sort altogether.
