A blunt, unsentimental dive into propaganda, ideology, and the contemporary cult of belief.
Host Todd Thompson dissects how both corporate and collectivist power structures manipulate guilt, fear, and identity to keep the herd in line. From Ellul and Chomsky to Didion and Camus, the show fuses political philosophy, field experience, and gallows humor to expose how revolutions become religions, and how “progress” often hides new forms of control.
The X-Pod is an autopsy of the narratives that shape us: digital Marxism, moral theater, and the algorithmic priests of the new faith. Expect philosophy with scars, historical context with teeth, and the rare luxury of an honest sentence.

Todd Thompson exposes today’s ideological Left as a new religion — with saints, martyrs, blasphemy laws, and holy wars. From DEI rituals to the Jonestown Warning, this broadcast shows how ideology has replaced faith and why the Red–Green Alliance threatens Western civilization.

Broadcast August 22, 2025 on WWCR 4840 kHz from Nashville, this week’s edition of The Thompson Show dives headfirst into the theme of ideological religion — the secular Left’s new faith, complete with saints, martyrs, blasphemy laws, and holy wars.
Todd examines how today’s ideological zealots:
-
Canonize their saints and martyrs — from Marx and Lenin to George Floyd and Greta Thunberg.
-
Enforce blasphemy laws in the form of speechcrime and cancellation.
-
Sacrifice truth, tradition, and common sense on the altars of DEI, climate zealotry, gender ideology, and ritualized propaganda.
-
Wage holy wars through riots, uprisings, and cultural purges in the name of “justice.”
From Joan Didion’s warning about “moral imperatives” to Jacques Ellul’s insight on propaganda and orthopraxy, Todd connects the dots between ideological conditioning and religious zeal. He highlights the Boomerang Effect — how integration propaganda meant to normalize (like corporate DEI rituals or Target’s pride campaigns) backfires into outrage.
The broadcast reaches its climax with the Jonestown Warning: Jim Jones as the original “woke Marxist preacher,” blending Bible verses with socialist slogans, building a utopian commune that ended in mass graves. Todd argues that the same psychology underlies today’s woke religion — utopia promised, hysteria enforced, corpses delivered.
Closing the show, Todd expands the critique to Europe’s blasphemy laws, the UK and Scotland punishing veterans and teachers for “Islamophobia” while excusing Islamist extremism. He ties this selective enforcement to the Red–Green Alliance, showing how the far-Left and Islamists have made common cause against Western civilization.
