980: What Is a Parallel Society (and Why Does It Matter)?
Paul Rosenberg joins Brian Nichols to reveal how building parallel societies, embracing voluntaryism, and rejecting fear-based control are the keys to preserving freedom in a world plagued by centralization and cultural decay.
Is America on the verge of collapse - or is it finally waking up? In this explosive episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we sit down with legendary crypto-anarchist Paul Rosenberg to unpack what it really means to build a parallel society. From the failures of government to the promise of decentralized living, this is a deep-dive you won’t want to miss.

What if the real revolution isn’t in Washington, but in your community? Paul Rosenberg makes the case that change doesn’t start with voting booths or protests - it starts with self-reliant people opting out of the broken system. From cypherpunks to Bitcoin, Paul explains how freedom-lovers are quietly building the future behind the scenes.
But what happens when that freedom collides with centralized power? We get into the messy history of how liberty surges… only to get crushed by hierarchy, tribalism, and control. Paul even breaks down the biology of dominance - and why some people will always chase power unless we change the game.
From immigration policy to Judeo-Christian values, we don’t shy away from controversial topics. Paul and Brian go head-to-head on whether voting defensively (like voting for Trump) can actually slow down the collapse, even while we build alternatives outside the system. Can we walk and chew gum politically? You’ll hear both sides.
By the end, you’ll see why Paul believes the real battle isn’t over parties or platforms - it’s over ideas. And if we want to preserve freedom, it starts by rejecting fear, turning off the 24/7 outrage machine, and rebuilding our lives and values from the ground up. This episode will change how you see politics, culture, and your own role in shaping what comes next.
