Inside The World's (Worst) Slavery Crisis (with Katharine Houreld) – Change Agents w/ Andy Stumpf

As a senior I do like some of your guest. As a watcher, your podcast are too short, interrupted by commercials. Just a heads up .

Thank you for this report. It’s very rare people like this man and women address the humanitarian disaster of Eritrea

Boo! Ai thumb nail. This is already the problem. In trying to be a journalist you need to seek the truth. Resist the low hanging fruit.

I have a friend from there and it's horrible .

Disappointed u didn’t have someone with opposing views on to defend such strong accusations

It's amazing how every revolutionary, collectivist regime ends up imprisoning significant proportions of the population they claim to be liberating. Yet even educated people often believe the BS, that "it'll be different this time." No, it won't. Tyrants will always tyrannize, and they'll use any means of coercion, violence subterfuge, enslavement, etc., to get what they want and maintain power.

That's why the American experiment has been so unique and relatively long-lasting in terms of how free a society we've had over the last ~250 years. It's not perfect and our liberties are consistently being eroded in small, yet myriad, ways, but the fact that our very first founding documents were explicitly dedicated toward building a freer, more perfect society of united individuals stands as reasons why it has done so well.

Eritrea has only four recognized religions, and you get punished for worshipping outside of them? Not going to ask what the sanctioned religions are? Nebulous "Russian connection"? And from a ComPost "reporter"? This isn't passing the smell test. Strong vibes of babies in incubators, Saddam's WMDs, Assad gas attacks, Russian bounties, beheaded Israeli babies, Bucha massacres, mass graves, pandemic of the unvacced, etc. Might be a good time to go back and see what Eritrea has that we're trying to steal.

Let’s see how much reach a video about modern day slavery gets.

I know I haven't listened to mainstream news much in the past ten or so years, but at 68 yo for this to be the first time I have even heard of this place is pretty crazy. Also crazy, is the feeling I have that this is the same direction our own country is moving towards.

Why would the international community not take action against this regime in Eritrea?

I’m from there and to talk about things like this from a lady that’s not from there , makes little no sense , yea there is big difficulty out there but talk about all the positives first , the prison system out in the states are big problems 2 .

Andy, if you’ve been to Djibouti and know how big of a shit hole that is Eritrea is basically N Korea and Djibouti combined

Honestly didn't think there were anymore Africans… actually left in Africa..thought they were all in Europe and Britain tbh…..
