Episode 2: Defending Ea – Nationalism, Religion, and the Breathline of Ea
In this episode, we trace the ritual of war from Polynesian shores to Russian borders, exposing how nationalism and religion have become weapons of control. From Russia’s 33 invasions since 1917 to the rise of Evangelical nationalism in the U.S., we explore how sacred breathlines—Ea—are violated when power replaces purpose. We reflect on Polynesian warfare rooted in family, voice, and sovereignty, contrasting it with empire’s obsession with dominance, propaganda, and myth.
Featuring historical echoes from Hitler’s Positive Christianity to modern authoritarian admiration, this episode asks: What happens when a nation forgets tabu? When war becomes religion? When democracy loses its breath?
This is not just history.
It’s prophecy.
It’s ritual.
It’s resistance.
