Manufacturing Dissent Since 1996
New interviews throughout the week

The world looks way better through the eyes of the rich.

You know my motto about ambition? “It’s the people with big dreams you have to watch out for.” Y’know, like Elon Musk. Hitler. Bill Gates. Forget about the Buddha, these are the people you should take action against if you meet them on the road. People who arrogate to themselves enormous resources and the right to mold society as they see fit, no matter how many suffer and die.

In a Moment of Truth, Jeff Dorchen peeks at this rosy world through money colored glasses - and sees the accumulated waste piling up in the bank accounts of the tyrannical rich and the guts of sperm whales and the assorted hog farms and sea and earth and sky - it's not a bad view if you all you see are dollar signs.
