This week, we tackle a few readings to help us further understand ecosocialism. We talk oil executive plots, devil trains, and return to our good friend the inflation calculator. Oh and we go down a rabbit hole learning about societal collapse because of course we do.   Check us out on social media: Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/teach-me-communism?ref_id=10068 Instagram: @teachmecommunism Twitter: @teachcommunism Gmail: teachmecommunism@gmail.com Patreon: Patreon.com/teachmecommunism  And like and subscribe to us at Teach Me Communism on YouTube!   Solidarity forever!

A tale of an extremely stubborn king, some funk and some grunk, and a whole lot of atrocities.

This time on Communist Movie Night, we watch a film about a Mexican mining town going on strike with the help of some brave women and the solidarity of workers across the country. It’s no wonder this film was denounced by the U.S. House of Representatives (basically a stamp of approval as far as we’re concerned).

There’s always more shit to shoot around here. Topics include boot-licking monarchists, Star Trek, ongoing labor strikes and modern slavery. Christine regales us with some tales from their trip to the hill country and we have a brief lesson on LBJ. Plus, we make a commitment to like, actually DO something!   Check us out on social media: Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/teach-me-communism?ref_id=10068 Instagram: @teachmecommunism Twitter: @teachcommunism Gmail: teachmecommunism@gmail.com Patreon: Patreon.com/teachmecommunism  And like and subscribe to us at Teach Me Communism on YouTube!   Solidarity forever!
