Episode 6: Tackling Terrorism’s Taboo: Shame and the Proud Boys
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” It’s been [ ] years since Jung wrote those words, and [ ] years since Dostoyevsky’s shame and sin emerged in “Demons.”
What can the threat assessment community and analysts themselves learn from shame?
In this episode, I speak with Far Right analyst Matt Kriner, on shame as a human universal, and it’s role in the recruitment and radicalization process.
