We brought back anarchist scholar Zoe Baker (Anarchopac) to talk to us about the origins of the term "Marxist," what anarchists gained from Marx, Means and Ends theory, the socialist origins of identity politics, reactionary baggage within Leftwing circles, anarchist anti-imperialism, and a possible response to the climate crisis.  We can't continue to produce important episodes like this one...

This is part two and the final part of our conversation with Mylan Tootoosis. Since we defined a lot of concepts and terms in episode one, part two explores those ideas and their applications. We dive into racism and white supremacy, how colonization erases and rewrites Native culture, double consciousness as a way to understand code-switching and white gaze, land-based education (education outsid...

We brought Indigenous scholar Mylan Tootoosis on the show to give us a crash course on colonialism, Fanonian Marxism and psychoanalysis, and decolonization (both internal and external). More than a lecture, this is a conversation where we not only define terms and ideas but stretch these ideas into different contexts, even martial arts. Some fight for a post-racial society, or a post-capitalist so...

"More than machinery, we need humanity."  In 1940, Charlie Chaplin put aside the Tramp character to write, direct, and star in "The Great Dictator." Rather than his usual slapstick comedy, "The Great Dictator" was a thoughtful political comedy, that not only satirized but also denounced fascism.  Side note: For making movies that criticized factory life, the Gold Rush, and the Nazis, Cha...

We look at Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Justin Gaethje, Robert Whittaker vs. Jared Cannonier, pound-for-pound vs. greatest of all time, why no one thinks of wrestling when they think about stance and footwork, and how timing can dictate a fighter's legacy.  We can't continue to produce episodes like this one without your solidarity.

Many of us have questions about spotting red flags for fascists and cults of personalities. Fortunately for us, philosopher Theodor W. Adorno and other researchers at University of California, Berkeley have already done the work. Studying fascist personality traits during and after World War II, their findings were published in 1950. However, you might be surprised how consistent these personality...
