Episode 36 — From Colorblind to Red-Pilled: How the System Radicalized Us
Show notes
This week on The Backlash, Rebecca, Dave, Vince, and Cameron pull back the curtain on the collapsing American economy, the myth of meritocracy, and how an entire generation went from believing in the dream to seeing through the lie. From layoffs and AI-driven hiring practices to elite delusion, worthless degrees, and the implosion of feminism — the crew breaks down how the system radicalized them. Also on deck: the unaffordability of fast food, tallow-based bug repellents, boomers blowing their inheritance on cruises, and why crime might be the next best career path. It's hilarious, unfiltered, and all too real.
