The Insurgents

This week we spoke to Adam Johnson of Citations Needed and The Column about the link between mainstream corporate media’s post-9/11 bloodlust and the unbelievable meltdown over the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan 20 years later. Also: conspiracy theories, the relentless “nobody wants to work anymore” narrative, and why pivoting to the right is such a lucrative grift.We also celebrate our new reality series about activism getting picked up, and take a moment to pay respects to the brave neocons who keep America safe.---If you’d like to become a premium subscriber and gain access to premium episodes as well as our private Discord server, you can do so here: This is a public episode.
