About this video
Michael Shellenberger joins the Winston Marshall Show to break down how ideology, personality traits, and group dynamics shape modern left wing authoritarian movements. This conversation explores narcissism, entitlement, and detachment from reality, connecting psychology to the rise of autonomous zones, political radicalisation, and elite decision making in Western cities. Shellenberger draws on research, history, and firsthand reporting to explain why these movements concentrate in specific locations and how decentralised activism sustains itself. A sharp analysis of power, psychology, and ideology driving today’s political unrest.
