TODAY: We dive into Gen Z conservative’s attack on birth control and how they’re using the very real side effects of hormonal birth control to push an anti-contraception political project.   We look at the young right-wing women spearheading this push as they navigate (with frustration) the unfortunate optics of their party’s larger war on reproductive health.   Finally, we visit Evie Magazine, the right wing young women’s magazine serving as a Birth Control Injury blotter and informing women that they could be dating a lumber jack if they would only stop taking the pill.   ——————————————————————   Reproductive health and birth control information recommended in this episode:   Dr. Fran - http://pagingdrfran.com   Jennifer Gunter - Author of The Menopause Manifesto and The Vagina Bible   Kate Clancy - Author of PERIOD: The Real Storyy of Menstruation   https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/birth-control-cleanse   https://opill.com/?gad_source=1   https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/birth-control/birth-control-pill   Maxo Kream- Bang The Bus

“In an alternate universe, successful African-Americans live in gated communities, while impoverished Caucasians populate crime-ridden inner-city ghettos. When African-American mogul Thaddeus Thomas (Harry Belafonte) wrongly accuses Caucasian Louis Pinnock (John Travolta) of being a Peeping Tom, Pinnock loses his job and watches as his family falls apart. In a desperate attempt to repair his life, Pinnock takes Thomas hostage and demands reinstatement at the factory where he once worked.” Sign up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult for $5/month and get 2 bonus episodes a week   Subscribe to our youtube channel at http://youtube.com/miniondeathcult   

Today we take a hard look at the worst words in the conservative lexicon: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Is the conservative backlash to milquetoast corporate guidelines key to understanding modern right wing ideology?  We discuss DEI as the right’s current scapegoat for the failures of capitalism and observe their ineptness at obscuring the racism at the center of it.  Riding the anti-DEI wave we wash up on the right-wing “conditional hypotheticals” meme which holds that Elon Musk did not get owned by Don Lemon, and we see a televised half-time “spelling bee” that the Noticers are sure is rigged. The question is how… Joni Haastrap- Greetings Subscribe to our youtube channel at http://youtube.com/miniondeathcult    Sign up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult for $5/month and get 2 bonus episodes a week

TODAY: Trader Joe’s widens its attack on organizing workers to include the NLRB itself, arguing in tandem with Amazon and SpaceX that the employee-protection agency is unconstitutional. We discuss how this anti-worker move flies in the face of their ostensibly liberal brand and grapple with some of the most unhinged anti-union ideas we’ve ever seen in the Fox Business comment section. ALSO: Meet the world’s youngest landlord, an 8 year old girl who says positively-geared rental properties are the bee’s knees!

TODAY: Kate Middleton is dead. Long live Kate Middleton.    ALSO: Proud Worker Ben Shapiro explains why the retirement age is “insane” and how everyone should work until they die.     We go through his bizarre arguments against social security payments and imagine what adding millions of senior citizens to the labor pool will do for wages, let alone quality of life   FINALLY: SXSW hears and sees your criticisms of the US Military but will continue working with them to raise the next generation of kill-bots.

TODAY: We cover Biden’s excruciating State of the Union speech—including his shout-out to a victim “killed by an illegal.”   We go through the myriad conservative reactions to the geriatric stateman’s address:   “He’s scary!”   “He’s trying to cure cancer because his dad was a pathetic car salesman”   “He threatened supreme court justices!” (If only)   ALSO: the right sees Democrats move to their position on immigration so they get even more racist as a response, represented here by a news story and comment section about a migrant exonerated from assaulting a police officer.   We also learn about “Turbo Cancer” and how crime statistics are fake (not racist enough)   TiaCorine- Chaka Khan  Slow Pulp- Slugs  Sign up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult for $5/month and get 2 bonus episodes a week   Subscribe to our youtube channel at http://youtube.com/miniondeathcult

Last Responders is back!!! Ani joins me to go over 9-1-1 Season 6 ep. 17 "Love is in the Air' A base jumping proposal gone wrong but not how you would think kiicks off a series of events that is giving Chimney mixed signals while Eddie tries to find love at the driving range and hiking.  Lucinda Williams- Passionate Kisses

Today we look at the dubious reporting behind the NYT’s Oct 7th sexual assault piece published last December.  An investigation by the Intercept reveals a latticework of fabricated, unsubstantiated, and debunked claims of “systemic” sexual assault made by Israeli figures with no forensic or sexual assault training. We’re going off vibes here. ALSO: we wipe the taste of hasbara from our palates with an incredibly niche Facebook group of ex-Harry Potter fans using their former wickedness for good: making memes about the wizard and his friends burning in hell. Finally, we cover an age-old band-member squabble: force-transitioning your bassist to steal his fiancé.  Read the Intercept’s coverage of the New York Times reporting: https://theintercept.com/2024/02/28/new-york-times-anat-schwartz-october-7/ (https://theintercept.com/2024/02/28/new-york-times-anat-schwartz-october-7/)  Sign up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult (http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult)  to support the show and get bonus episodes every week.
