Devolution Power Hour Ep. 348: Culture War Cage Match – Trump, UFC, and Narrative Warfare

In this wide-ranging and fiery edition of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Burning Bright wade deep into the cultural, political, and narrative battles shaping our present reality. Kicking off with a dive into the mainstream media’s desperate attempts to frame the UFC as a hotbed of “deplorable” masculinity, the hosts explore how the promotion's unapologetically anti-woke ethos has made it a narrative battleground, and why Trump’s walk-ins at events hit harder than any punch in the octagon.

From there, they shift into economic brinkmanship, trade war chess, and Trump’s masterful narrative manipulation using tariffs as leverage. The hosts dissect a flurry of global developments, from Putin’s strategic “capitulation” in Ukraine (which aligns eerily well with Trump's three-year-old peace plan) to Europe’s economic collapse and the populist uprising it’s igniting. They also unravel the deeper meaning of what it takes to wage narrative warfare, questioning whether we’re watching a scripted resolution or an ongoing, real battle against rogue state actors.

And yes, they roast the idea of Bill Maher and the establishment media taking a redemption lap, labeling it a tactical "hibernation" strategy to outlast Trump and sneak back into relevance.

Packed with sharp commentary, personal anecdotes (including dead animals in walls and sword lore), and unapologetic truth bombs, this episode is both an information dump and a call to vigilance.

Buckle up...the narrative is shifting, and DPH is here to help you decode it.
