Binchtopia If He Wanted to Wiretap You He Would
The girlies are back for part two of the immigration series to unpack our modern-day McCarthyism. Starting with a recap of current events (aka The Horrible Things Update), they pick up where they left off in history, discussing Japanese internment, the second Red Scare, post-9/11 surveillance, and how fear of the 'other' has always justified oppression. Digressions include Khloe Kardashian’s venture into protein dust and the comforting fact that, as of today, sunlight is still legal to experience.
