Jeffrey Tucker, substituting for Trish Woods, speaks with author/scholar Tom Harrington about the treason of the experts. Their dark arts have long been painted with the veneer of science that is being exposed each day. The Covid experience revealed all: crazy plans that ended only in a big marketing push by powerful industries in league with governments. We discuss all the ways in which this might be a hinge of history, signalling a shift from the myth of the "age of science" toward a forthright embrace of nostalgia, tradition, and population-wide incredulity toward all ruling-class claims. As a cultural historian, Harrington traces through the implications of such a gigantic failure from the top, and what we can expect for the future of culture, politics, industry, and government in times of dramatic upheaval.
