#227 - Lantern Jack - How Democracies Die - Ancient Greece Declassified

Lantern Jack joins us for a chat about ancient philosophy, how Democracies die and Ancient Greece Declassified. We chat about why Greece really isn't talked about enough, incentives creating strong emotions, the Iron Law of Oligarchy, red and blue all the way back, the massive amount of city states, how they got there and how they crumbled, the Hellenistic Leagues, Rome's policies, and the healing temples.   In the second half we get into Stoicism, Marcus Aurelius - why is he so popular now, victimhood, feeling of powerlessness and the Empire, back to the city states, Plato and his philosophy, debt jubilee's, philosophic baggage, solutions, primary residences, Eleusinian Mysteries initiations and resurrections, The Immortality Key, scientific philosophy, the layers of Greek history and travelling through it, Crete, and life and death.   https://www.greecepodcast.com/   To gain access to the second half of show and our Plus feed for audio and podcast please clink the link http://www.grimericaoutlawed.ca/support.   For second half of video (when applicable and audio) go to our Substack and Subscribe. https://grimericaoutlawed.substack.com/ or to our Locals  https://grimericaoutlawed.locals.com/ or Rokfin www.Rokfin.com/Grimerica Patreon https://www.patreon.com/grimericaoutlawed   If you would rather watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Xc-5xVAPZU https://rumble.com/v4yfqyl-lantern-jack-how-democracies-die-ancient-greece-declassified.html https://rokfin.com/stream/49138   Support the show directly: https://grimerica.ca/support-2/ Outlawed Canadians YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@OutlawedCanadians Our Adultbrain Audiobook Podcast and Website: www.adultbrain.ca Our Audiobook Youtube Channel:  https://www.youtube.com/@adultbrainaudiobookpublishing/videos Darren's book www.acanadianshame.ca Check out our next trip/conference/meetup - Contact at the Cabin www.contactatthecabin.com Other affiliated shows: www.grimerica.ca The OG Grimerica Show www.Rokfin.com/Grimerica Our channel on free speech Rokfin Join the chat / hangout with a bunch of fellow Grimericans  Https://t.me.grimerica https://www.guilded.gg/chat/b7af7266-771d-427f-978c-872a7962a6c2?messageId=c1e1c7cd-c6e9-4eaf-abc9-e6ec0be89ff3   Get your Magic Mushrooms delivered from: Champignon Magique  Get Psychedelics online Leave a review on iTunes and/or Stitcher: https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/grimerica-outlawed http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/grimerica-outlawed Sign up for our newsletter http://www.grimerica.ca/news SPAM Graham = and send him your synchronicities, feedback, strange experiences and psychedelic trip reports!! graham@grimerica.com InstaGRAM https://www.instagram.com/the_grimerica_show_podcast/  Purchase swag, with partial proceeds donated to the show www.grimerica.ca/swag Send us a postcard or letter http://www.grimerica.ca/contact/ ART - Napolean Duheme's site http://www.lostbreadcomic.com/  MUSIC Tru Northperception, Felix’s Site sirfelix.bandcamp.com
