Climate Despair and Building a Movement of Hope 11.08.2021

In this episode I talk a bit about some thing that I have been dealing with personally, and that is what many people are calling eco-despair. I know a lot of us, after seeing the most recent climate report yesterday, are very scared. But also I know a lot of us have been feeling this way for much longer than just a day, and many more have been suffering because of climate change for far longer tha...

Fascism: What is it? 08.08.2021

In this episode I do my best to try to give a comprehensive explanation of fascism, it’s historical phenomenon, how it is not a static being, nor is it exclusive to Italy or Germany.

Take what I say, digest it, agree or disagree with it, and try to grow yo...

A Critique of the “Left” in the US 30.07.2021

In this episode I give my probably unwanted take on why it is I feel that the left in the United States is in capable of advancing the struggle, helping the people, or even connecting to the masses, let alone solving their issues. We see many different problems that need to be discussed and I hope that this episode did a decent enough job explaining why it is I feel that things need to change amon...

We all need to shut up, stop arguing, and organize… 23.07.2021

In this episode I go over some of the incredibly important struggles happening all over the world briefly, and bring it into a discussion about why Marxism is completely misunderstood and improperly taught in our current reality. Western Leftists all need to stop arguing and start building socialism, true Marxist progression and a coherent alternate reality for the struggling people before we all...

What about our day-to-day do you question? And why do you think that is? 12.07.2021

In this episode we follow up the previous conversation about why we ought to question and critique Capitalism, and also why we need to begin seriously learning about Socialism. I go further into a bit of a conversation about why we don’t question our reality, how ignorant many of us are, and why we ought to change that!

Why We Need to Question Capitalism, and Learn About Socialism 11.07.2021

In this episode I go on a little rant about how capitalism has been misrepresented to us since the day we were born. So many of us live in a capitalist society yet so many of us know so little about the oppression and other distraction that it creates itself. We find ourselves talking about crony capitalism, rather than recognizing Capitalism itself is a crony. It’s made for one group of people in...

In this episode we dive into a few brief discussions, firstly a brief overview of Class society, oppression and the miseducation that comes from both. We then go into specifics a bit less vaguely about the White, Working-Class struggles that occurred here in “America” since it’s dawning as a settler society.

Why violent revolution? 27.06.2021

Also, if you could, please feel free to donate or share my comrades GoFundMe to save their...

Ideology and Hegemony: Racism and “America” are Inseparable 24.06.2021

In this episode I go into a brief description of the history of colonialism, although I do keep the conversation quite centred to the United States, that is because of my lack of historical knowledge of these events across the globe. I would like to learn more, and if anyone has any information please hit me up! But we talk about the recent findings of the children at the residential schools, we d...
