Joe Biden is the new President Elect of the United States of America. Yet even after his clear and concise victory the country is still divided with many doubting the validity of the democratic process itself. Join us as we discuss what happened during the election and pick up where we left off from our last episode. This is an exciting one you won't want to miss.

0:33 - The Good News: Trump is fired and Joe Biden is our new president. How a large majority came together to show they were tired of Trump and his cultish supporters.

3:41 - The Bad News: Voters cast cynical aspersions on the election process itself with still many not believing their vote mattered or thinking that even if they did vote it would make no difference. Trump supporters also ignored the ineptitude of the Trump administration and made clear they didn't care about key issues so long as it meant keeping the cult of personality surrounding Trump.

11:26 - Reagan and his lasting damage in telling American's their government is corrupt and that any deviation from individualism was akin to tyranny.

14:05 - Trump administration refusing to accept election results and concede. How it effects transition and faith in democracy and how tactically it is better to accept reality and move on.

21:16 - Older white American's vote as an ethnic group overwhelmingly conservative. How indoctrination to the status quo effects voting groups and keeps them resistant to change even when it works in their favor.

31:13 - The Modernist Perspective generated some controversy for speaking out against male circumcision. Here's why we stand by our assessment that it is wrong under any consistent and equal system of ethics and morality.

38:04 - Where does the country go from here? What structural and cultural changes will have to be made after this election to get our country to a better place.

43:36 - The importance of Georgia's runoff elections and why everyone in that state should be working to enact change.
