War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning — Myth, Trauma, and Manufactured Purpose (Audio)
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.
This episode explores War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning by Chris Hedges as a systems-level analysis of how conflict supplies meaning through myth, belonging, and emotional intensity.
By focusing on structural incentives rather than ideology, the book reveals why war persists as a cultural force — converting trauma into silence, violence into virtue, and destruction into identity.
