Is There A Toxic Legacy of World War 2?

  • Summary

  • "I think that Britain has been obsessed with World War 2, and it is shallow learning of it that has created the conditions to be easily manipulated by politicians throughout the last 80 years, particularly today.... and I think that the only way to counter that poison is to know more about it and to be open to the negativity." - Lee Baines 

    While WW2 accelerated progress in many areas, it can be argued that the main victors (Britain, USA, Soviet Union), with an everlasting hangover of propoganda to claim elevated status as the turners of the war, have neglected to heed important lessons, the consequences of which echo very loudly in modern society. 

    Join your hosts, Lee Baines, Sedgil Wartemberg and Greg Dea as they unravel the toxic legacy of the victors of World War 2.
