Information Inundation, David Icke, and Premature Knowledge

Jason Horsley critiques the "conspiratainment" industry, questioning the validity of unearned knowledge provided by figures like David Icke and Alex Jones. He argues that the modern policy of power has shifted from information control to information inundation, leading to a state of destabilizing overload. The segment uses Francis Ford Coppola’s Apocalypse Now as an example of how even "anti-war" films can inadvertently serve military interests through aesthetic glorification.
