War. What is it good for? The answer is, of course, simple: it's good for oppressing people who make war. That's the thing it's good for, and that's about it. Today, we learn about the final treaties foisted on the Ute peoples at gunpoint, the tortured math an Imperialist calls "good enough," and the similarities to things happening today.

On that note! We recorded this, like, 4 months ago, so when we're talking about Venezuela, we hadn't even recorded our Venezuela Special Report yet! None of the stuff had happened. Though I'd like to think we did a decent job of looking at the world and going, "hmm. Trouble a-brewin'..."

And last, our next book starts next week, so let's get prepared to read that sucker! We're going to be reading The History of White People by Nell Irvin Painter. It's a book all about class as color in Western history and the multi-millennia parade of dipwads that brought us to where we are today! Strap in, because everyone's gonna be a PhD race scientist by the time we're done.

You can get a copy from the publisher here or any of the other retailers linked there. Join us next week for Chapters 1 & 2 of the book!

It's Bonus Episode Week, and you know what? We've been having such a delightful time, why the heck not, let's open up the Good Time Vault and free a Bonus Episode! It's a Bonus on the Main Feed! No kidding!!

That's right, this week we read Da News (ca. 1880-1901)! In our current book, "The Utes Must Go!" we see the evil influence of rich guys who own a printing press on the genocidal mood of the nation. And today, we read those papers! From Silver World to the San Juan Chieftain, to the Durango Democrat, all your favorites are here! We also learn a lot about Miracle Cures and read some rib-tickling funnies, all while lamenting the White monsters of yore!

What do you do when the entire U.S. military has been mobilized to arrest you and your friends on false charges because a sniveling American coward felt that you were mean to him? That answer, of course, is kick some Imperialist ass! And that's just what we've got for you this week. Every coward gets got. Every hater gets what's coming to 'em. If you see a statue of Nathan Meeker in your travels, drive a railroad spike through it. It's the Episode 3 of the Nathan Meeker Spectacular and Chapter 5 of "The Utes Must Go!"

WE INTERRUPT OUR COVERAGE OF AMERICAN HISTORY TO WARN YOU THAT HISTORY IS ONCE AGAIN ON THE MOVE!

It's the Venezuela Special Report! In which we lambaste the fawning responses of the Coward Nations of the Earth who beg America to bless them with money and businessmen, and who in return whimper about the importance of dominating the masses and controlling the destiny of the Venezuelan people ~for their own good.~ On one hand, the Venezuelan people repudiate this attack on their independence. On the other hand, some bot webserver in Miami is posting a lot about how the wise hand of the United States will guide S. America into an unparalleled Nazi Oil Baron Gilded Age. Gosh, it's so hard to tell who's on the right side of history, ain't it?

This is it. This is the episode where everyone gets cancelled. And to think it's only for hating the most significant sort of cowardice in human history, exemplary of all that is askew in the Imperialist conscience. It's Episode 2 of the Nathan Meeker Spectacular; it's Chapter 4 of "The Utes Must Go!"

Well, chat, this is it. It's the first of our three (3!) episode extravaganza dedicated to the rise, life, and fall of the evilest dork in history: Nathan Cook Meeker. Born in the conquered eastern American frontier on his family farm, Nathan spent his entire life learning the wrong lesson at every turn and eating **** for it. Ideologically dominated via an American Classical education, studying the works of history's greatest bastards, Nathan believed wholeheartedly in repaying one's debts, the inalienable right of all men to be a blowhard without consequence, and the superiority of agriculture over every other way of life ever devised. He is also the sniveling twerp for whom the town of Meeker, Colorado is named. It will be no surprise to the listener to learn that Nathan spent most of his life repaying debt and being embittered by every passing day. He is a pivotal character in the removal of the Ute peoples from Colorado, and let his story be a lesson to all White Dorks of today! Being a numbnuts like Meeker and striving to find one's place inside an Imperialist society brings not only ruin to oneself, but to everyone around. If you start a commune on a bank loan, you'd best be prepared to seize the banks afterward. It's such a shame to see a Utopian guy like Meeker choosing ideas over reality. Funny how that happens to guys like that. It's Chapter 3 of "The Utes Must Go!"
