I don't doubt the guys credentials...but John Maynard Keynes was an author and Kings College fellow, and he got a lot of shit wrong, too.
Either there's a lot of nuance that you filtered out of his theories, or the guy is playing the same game as Jordan Peterson (another author and professor who likes to talk out his ass).
The only logical conclusion of the argument you made was that voting has no economic or policy outcomes, and all democratic systems will inexorably lead to fascism. There is not sufficient evidence to support that claim.
We will see. I didn’t come to this conclusion from one podcast. It’s been years of reading that did that.
