The Greatest Trick John Roberts Ever Pulled: Convincing the World that Rigged Courts Are Neutral — California Law Review

Who does our government work for? How does our government shape our society? Who gets access to the power of the state when they have a problem or need help?

#TheLever is definetly a great media and its podcasts are both radical and unbiased (yes, it is possible).

Listening to the latest podcast of Augut 11th 2025, I discovered a movie from #AriAster, #Eddington

"You might recognize director Ari Aster from his groundbreaking horror films like Hereditary and Midsommar.

But Aster just dropped the scariest film of his career: Eddington, a dark COVID-19 comedy starring #JoaquinPhoenix, #PedroPascal, and #EmmaStone, about social media-driven polarization, gun violence, and the looming tech takeover.

Today on Lever Time, David Sirota speaks with Aster about the inspiration behind his all-too-prescient film.

Did the coronavirus pandemic break our brains, leaving our communities with no commonly accepted set of facts?
How do we navigate today’s AI slop-driven informational hellscape?
And is it possible to avoid the twisted fate of Eddington, Aster’s fictional New Mexico town?"

Listen to the podcast, it's 35 minutes of intelligent interview and thoughtful answers.

And, oh, go and see the movie, I definitely will, I will be the first time in ages I'll pay for a ticket rather than qBit it.
