"Gloria Steinem's Ms. Magazine in 1972, this magazine traditionally was like beauty tips and homemaking tips for housewives. And with the CIA's funding, Gloria Steinem published this magazine in 1972 with the Hindu goddess Kali on it. The goddess on the front Kali was known for the demonization and destruction of men."
Stone reveals that feminist icon Gloria Steinem received CIA funding to transform Ms. Magazine from a homemaking publication into a progressive feminist magazine featuring the Hindu goddess Kali, symbolizing male destruction. This occurred in 1972 and represented a complete ideological transformation of women's media.

About this episode

Host Jack Neal interviews 20-year-old anti-feminist influencer Savannah Faith Stone, who left a promising modeling and acting career to get married at 18 and promote traditional values. Stone argues feminism was never a grassroots movement but an elite-funded operation by families including the Vanderbilts and Rothschilds, claiming only 4% of Massachusetts women actually wanted suffrage. She reveals that Gloria Steinem's Ms. Magazine received CIA funding and featured Hindu goddess Kali symbolizing male destruction on its 1972 cover. Stone details her personal journey from competitive beauty pageants starting at age 13 through turning down a million-dollar film role because it required nudity, ultimately choosing marriage and faith over Hollywood. She makes controversial claims about early feminists practicing witchcraft and sex magic, and argues modern feminism has led to declining female happiness, the inability to define womanhood, and men competing in women's spaces. Stone discusses her traditional marriage philosophy including wifely submission, never refusing sex, and letting her husband make household decisions. She warns young women about human trafficking schemes disguised as modeling opportunities and criticizes the entertainment industry's moral compromises. The conversation explores dating dynamics, social media's impact on relationships, consumerism targeting women, and why she believes the anti-suffragist movement was larger but hidden from history. Stone argues women are happiest as married mothers and that career-focused feminism has enslaved rather than freed women.
