Ava Kaufman

Ava Kaufman, a staff writer at The New Yorker, and Zach Beauchamp from Vox dive into the provocative world of Curtis Yarvin, the far-right philosopher gaining traction within the MAGA movement. They discuss Yarvin's controversial advocacy for authoritarian governance, its allure to contemporary politics, and its implications for democracy. The duo also critiques the rising anti-liberal sentiments threatening individual rights, emphasizing the critical need to differentiate between diagnoses of political issues and their proposed solutions in today's complex landscape.
