  • Reflections on the timeless assumption of America as an asylum
  • Drawing from 'Democracy in America' by Alexis De Tocqueville
  • Questioning the concept of equality and its delusional nature

  • Pondering the complex nature of societal structures and the pursuit of equality
The default has always been democracy. So what is democracy defined by Webster? Democracy is a government form where the people hold supreme power.
Ever wondered if the idea of equality is just a comforting illusion? In this thought-provoking episode of 'The Leaves of a Victim never more', host Steven Wilson takes a deep dive into the notion that America is an asylum—a place needing care. Inspired by Alexis De Tocqueville's classic 'Democracy in America', Steven reads from Volume 1, using its historical insights to explore modern societal structures and the cyclical nature of power.
He offers a unique perspective on how equality is perceived and questions whether it's genuinely attainable or simply a delusion we cling to. With his usual candidness, Steven reflects on disparities both within the U.S. and globally, encouraging listeners to think critically about the true state of equality in our world. If you're interested in a raw and insightful look at societal norms and power dynamics, this episode is a must-listen.
