[#224] BUTLERIAN CANDIDATE, Part One: Tulsi Gabbard, Hare Krishnas, and Cults of Intelligence
🕑 Added 2024-12-02 20:55:52 +0000 UTCPressed by current events, Dimitri and Khalid finally dust off one of their longest-planned SJ episodes: a deep dive into the underexamined spiritual life of Donald Trump’s nominee for Director of National Intelligence, former Hawaii Representative/current Army PSYOP officer Tulsi Gabbard.
Topics include:
Tulsi downplaying her life-long relationship with the Science of Identity Foundation cult in Hawaii led by the charismatic white boomer Chris Butler, her journey from heckin' Berniebro to anti-woke Trump ally, SIF’s adjacency to the Hare Krishnas, Hare Krishna founder A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Tulsi’s political connections with Narendra Modi and the neo-fascist RSS in India, Pierre Omidyar’s quiet support for Modi and the BJP, Soviet allegations in 1983 that the Hare Krishnas were a CIA mind control cult, Butler’s obsessive hatred of gay people and Muslims, rebelling against his Communist-sympathizing doctor father in the 60s, assembling a political front in the 1970s to ban homosexuality in Hawaii, key Butlerites serving as Tulsi’s staffers and advisors, her curious “anti-interventionist” political stances, Indian perceptions of the Hare Krishnas as CIA agents during the Cold War, and more. Part one of two.

Loved the audio clips of these people in their own words--and was pleasantly surprised at the Dave Emory shoutout. Great work you guys!
