Senator Joni Ernst recently said what Republicans have long implied: “We’re all going to die.” But what sounds like grim realism is actually a cover for systemic neglect. In this episode, we break down how such statements reflect a deeper conservative ideology—one that prioritizes the rich and powerful while abandoning the sick, poor, and disabled. Despite their alliance with the Christian right, Republican policies consistently betray Christ’s teachings about care for “the least of these.” This isn't just hypocrisy—it's a political theology of cruelty.
Join us as we unpack the philosophical implications of death, political apathy, and the selective morality at the heart of American conservatism.
