On a recent episode of Joe Rogan’s podcast, guest Gavin de Becker argued that Volodymyr Zelensky’s rise to power was engineered by oligarchs, Western intelligence agencies, and media networks long before the public ever noticed him. Zelensky’s hit TV show Servant of the People served as the scripted precursor to a real-world political campaign boosted by billionaire Ihor Kolomoisky, U.S. advisers, and nonstop favorable coverage, the de Becker said.
Zelensky by this reckoning represents something of an “actor-construct” who abandoned early peace negotiations under Western pressure, contributing to a prolonged and devastating war in Ukraine. Jimmy uses this narrative to criticize American foreign policy, media manipulation, and public naivety about manufactured leaders and perpetual war.
