Mormons, The Military, and a Dangerous Political Shift

It was a tempest in the teacup in some way... If you're not mormon or exmormon, you might have missed it. But let me argue that the Pentagon's decision to strip back its classifications of recognised religious groups is another step towards more extreme government that affects us all. Lemme explain...

Along the way, we'll talk about the Venn Diagram principle of media and politics, drop a tiny bit of history to provide some context, and the role of the military in American class history. If you know nothing about Mormonism and how it does (or doesn't) fit into the wider context of American religious groups, this is a useful moment tp pick up a lot of context about the current state of American politics. No, seriously.

It's another dog park video with no makeup, clearly not enough coffee, and sloppy hair...but I think it's still worth your time!
