This week on The Disinfo Detox, host Nolan Higdon sits down with Lisa Ekman, author of Deprogramming Democrats & unEducating the Elites: How I Escaped the Progressive Cult, for a candid conversation about political tribalism, hyperpartisanship, and the forces driving division in America.
Lisa shares her journey out of the progressive echo chamber and sheds light on why the media often amplifies partisan narratives — and how COVID-19 hurt Democrats’ relationships with voters. Together, they unpack the cultural and political dynamics that keep Americans polarized and explore what it takes to break free from ideological bubbles.
👉 Why does hyperpartisanship keep getting worse?
👉 How does media coverage fuel tribal politics?
👉 What lessons does COVID-19 offer for political trust?
👉 Can Americans escape the echo chambers of modern politics?
If you care about understanding the forces shaping U.S. politics, media influence, and the path to more thoughtful civic discourse, this episode is essential listening.
