In this episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason and Matt sit down for the fifth time with the fearless Maj Toure — founder of Black Guns Matter, activist, and unflinching defender of self-ownership and liberty. Maj has been a frontline voice in educating urban communities about firearm rights, personal responsibility, and breaking free from the mental traps set by the state.
We begin by diving headfirst into the tragic and polarizing killing of Austin Metcalf, a story that has rapidly become a flashpoint for racial division and tribal rage. This case — and the instant emotional reactions it sparked across social media — serves as a perfect microcosm of a much bigger problem. Together, we unpack how these incidents are weaponized to inflame divisions, and how both sides of the manufactured culture war are being expertly manipulated.
Maj brings fire to the conversation, offering powerful analogies and razor-sharp insights on how the establishment exploits fear and emotion to keep us divided and distracted. While the conversation veers into some dark territory, with Maj bluntly laying out his concerns about complacency and mass mental slavery, it’s a necessary reality check for anyone paying attention to the growing unrest.
