Great show today folks: First, author Matt McManus joins us once again to discuss his new piece in Liberal Currents, "The Right Wants You Stupid," about the long history, up to Charlie Kirk, of conservative intellectuals cultivating ignorance and bigotry.https://www.liberalcurrents.com/the-right-wants-you-stupid/

Then, Kylie Cheung joins us again to discuss two recent pieces, the first on the "pink pill pipeline" and how celebrity content is being used as a trojan horse for a massively unpopular right wing agenda. Then, her response to zionist accusations that critics of Israel don't care about sexual violence.
