Nov 9, 2020

This podcast explores the concept of left accelerationism and its relationship to contemporary politics, referencing key texts by Marx, Deleuze, Guattari, Williams, Srnicek, Negri, Fisher, and Land. It discusses the changing nature of capitalism, the need for effective anti-capitalism, the risks and concerns associated with left accelerationism, and the challenges of acceleration thought. The hosts also compare politics of identification to leading a double life, explore philosophy as an activity of refusal, and emphasize understanding capitalism without conservatism.
