In this episode, Doug shares some details from leftist intellingensia magazines. They give a sense of what the left really thinks of the rest of us. Namely, that they're very happy to sacrifice everything you care about "for the greater good".

One concept jumped out: The cold war era concept of "Sacrifice Zones". Sacrifice zones are areas designated low value by the elite. The idea is that by sacrificing certain areas, a country can concentrate its limited defensive resources on protecting its most vital areas, such as major population centers, key industrial regions, and, of course, political/military command posts.

Today, much of the west looks like a sacrifice zone.
