Repost from MintPress due to censorship of their channel and the importance of this episode.

In this episode of State of Play on MintPress News, host Greg Stoker—former U.S. Army Ranger turned anti-imperialist journalist—examines the destruction of journalism in Gaza, the propaganda machine fueling war crimes, and the institutional collapse of media accountability.

Joined by Tara Sutton, award-winning filmmaker and the only unembedded Western journalist to enter Fallujah in 2004, we confront the latest Israeli airstrike that assassinated Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al-Sharif and his crew. We break down how the targeting of journalists fits into a broader pattern of media erasure, state-sponsored violence, and Western complicity.

In this episode, we break down the rising tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean as Cyprus becomes a key battleground in the global imperialist crisis. As the U.S., EU, and NATO struggle to maintain control over trade, energy, and regional dominance, new power struggles are erupting between Turkey and Israel—with Cyprus caught in the crossfire.

Welcome to Colonial Outcasts, the anti-imperialist podcast that real estate developers will never listen to.

In this free-form episode, hosts Greg Stoker and Mark Wayne dig into the existential propaganda war we're all living through — also known as Fifth-Generation Warfare. From ICE's dystopian recruitment ads to the weaponization of technology by the ruling class, we explore how the collapsing U.S. empire is turning its sights inward.

This isn't just about politics — it's about survival in a world where the boundaries between truth, power, and warfare are vanishing. As the Global South resists American unipolar hegemony, climate collapse accelerates, and mass disillusionment spreads, we ask: Are we witnessing the final act of empire, or the first sparks of revolution?

Know a lot of you feel overwhelmed with the barrage of unhinged horrific back to back bad news to the point where you are in shock, depression, horror, survivor’s guilt or all of the above at once. But understand that is very intentional. And that is the goal of the ruling class.

All of this is meant to be your death spiral to despair to the point where you feel as if you’re just another inconsequential spectator of history- a mere speck on this space rock, completely helpless and combat-ineffective to help your fellow humans from war, genocide, and capitalist slavery.

But I assure you…that is not the case. You are in fact living in a time where your voice has more power than people have ever had in human history and while we are witnessing the unraveling and unmasking of the true sinister nature of empire and capital, therein lies the hope actually, as a new era of a social awakening is sweeping the globe with every act of hypocrisy by the ruling class being laid bare only increasing the growing numbers of various cultures and demographics uniting against it.

The question is: will this lead to a tangible revolution? Our conclusion is: there is no other choice for us at this point. There has to be a revolution or we lose this planet and everyone in it to the most perverse and vile elites and their sick desires of control over everything.

To help us at least address this question, Dr. Roy Casagranda -who is a professor of political science, a public scholar, and self-descripted “chaos monger” will be putting the current events unfolding in a dialectical historical context with his former student, Serene Sovereign , so that we can analyze what is needed for a world wide revolution.

Has any movement collapsed more completely than MAGA? In this episode of Colonial Outcasts, we examine Trump’s stunning reversal on every key populist promise: escalation in Ukraine, saber-rattling toward Iran, backing Israel-first policy, and promoting a ballooning Pentagon budget. With bipartisan support for more war and sanctions, Trump now openly threatens Russia with ultimatums and long-range strikes—an aggressive pivot cheered on by neocons like Lindsey Graham and think tanks like the Atlantic Council.

We break down the fantasy of secondary sanctions, the economic impossibility of isolating Russia, and how Trump’s foreign policy is now indistinguishable from the unipolar imperial doctrine of his predecessors. From NATO expansion to the looming confrontation in Lebanon, we connect the dots between the collapsing facade of MAGA and the emerging Axis of Upheaval—a global order driven by elite panic and escalating militarism.

We also take a critical look at the Atlantic Council and Chatham House as mouthpieces for the military-intelligence elite shaping this next phase of global conflict.

Hello and Welcome to Colonial Outcasts, the anti-imperialist podcast that doesn’t pay wall that doesn’t Paywall it’s primary content… unlike Reuters, who this week decided to introduce a 1 dollar a week paywall for the first time ever, and get ready for that to go up next fiscal year.

We are gathered here today with our regular geopolitical contributor, Elina Xenophontos, to talk about the Gaza ceasefire farce, the impending resumption of war in Lebanon, the push to secure the entire Levant for western interests in order to encircle Iran before it attacking again - and then tying all of this into the recent BRICS summit which concluded on Monday.

Welcome to Colonial Outcasts, the unapologetically anti-imperialist podcast where we break down how Operation Excalibur — an ICE/National Guard raid on LA’s MacArthur Park — connects to Netanyahu's "voluntary migration" speech at the White House.

Governments learn from each other — and this week, we're watching that play out in real-time.📄 We examine leaked National Guard documents, dissect the media framing, and expose how militarized policing and state violence are converging under a unified imperial agenda.

With that out of the way - Can we match up to Fred Hampton's level of outreach for class solidarity and hard power revolution?

We finally dedicated an episode to the following questions posed numerous times by our audience in the comments: How do we reach the right for class consciousness?

Is it even possible? The short answer is: yes, it is. Our proof is in our guest, Manny, a conservative Marine Corps veteran who not only deprogrammed from Zionism years ago due to conversations with leftists, but even used his top tier research and technical skills to author and index a thorough guidebook (link below) for defeating any Zionist argument which he used to coach a good friend of the podcast, an advocate for Palestine and anti-ICE activist, Mea (www.instagram.com/spacebunnynews1) in debating Zionists.

We've uploaded this guidebook to our Patreon (below) where you can view and download it for free.

We discuss Israel, ICE, MAGA, the rapidly deteriorating state of "the free world" and what is needed for a successful unification of the left and right working class for a successful revolution against the increasingly powerful ruling class. #conservative #war #maga #humanrights #geopolitics #veteran #protest #ice #trump #consitution
