TENE revisits the Orthodox Christian "punk zine" Death to the World, by reviewing the 2025 book Punk to Monks: The Story of Death to the World 'Zine.

Rey attempts to tell the story of the Young Conservative current of CR in Germany 1918-1932 (as per Armin Mohler), but fails and gets sucked in by the vortex of the 19th century (our old foe), and manages to talk only about their predecessors.

Rey and Boris dive into Armin Mohler's critique of liberal democracy, highlighting his concerns over institutional decay due to leftist and corporate influences. They hilariously tackle the topic of transgender access in public restrooms as a cultural battleground. The discussion also touches on Mohler's shift from libertarian roots toward right-wing socialism, alongside a debate on the threats posed by contemporary leftist movements compared to those of the interwar era. Expect sharp insights and humor throughout!
