Episode 17: WTF Happened to the Left?! pt. 3

1 hour, 2 minutes long. Link to audio file. Link directly to this episode.

The likely conclusive episode of a 3-part series analysing how the Left has been degraded into radical liberalism, postmodernism, and disorganisation. We discuss how the radlib Left purports to support women workers rights and yet wants a brothel in every office and trade union building. How the characteristics of being a socially and developmentally delayed 'loser', or embarrassment around being a 'normie', and other forms of cringe, have become central currents among the desiccated Left of the Global North. We also chat about the misogynist Left's justification of porn as 'sex work' and so by their own logic they should only want Andrew Tate to be a better boss to his 'workers'.

In the absence of revolutionary or radical thinking, if the sexist Left's vision won, we would be left with a world not particularly different to the current one (and one arguably far worse for women). It is that fall from being able to envision a different set of social relations that really marks the once radical Left's drift to liberalism, capitulation to the status-quo, and ultimately an acceptance of the current social order.
