/384/ Millennial Rule ft. Amber A'Lee Frost


Listen Later

On Dirtbag and the Millennial Left.
 
Bungacast regular Amber A'Lee Frost is back to talk about her new book, Dirtbag — part memoir, part critical essays on millennial socialism. In this episode we discuss:
Why "millennial"? Does it make sense to talk in generational terms?
  • What are the left's "perversions" as Amber sees them?
  • 'Occupy' was all leaderless, horizontalist crap. Why did Amber stick around?
  • Bernie Sanders did not leave an organizational legacy – why?
  • After the failure of left-populism, in US and Europe, was it all worth it?

    At patreon.com/bungacast we continue discussing the problems of DSA, as well as look forward to the US election and ask whether there's a vibe-shift at Davos.
