Author and journalist Stella Morabito’s new book, The Weaponization of Loneliness: How Tyrants Stoke Our Fear of Isolation to Silence, Divide, and Conquer examines the various ways governments, corporations, peer groups and educational institutions use our natural fear of separation and isolation from others to enforce conformity and submission to authority. She joins this episode to talk about the concept, the historical science behind groupthink and mob psychology, and how fearless free speech can combat it.
