On your questions & criticism regarding pro-Palestine protests.
 
[Patreon Exclusive]
 
In this episode we focus on the discussion generated by our episode that came out in early May on the protests on US campuses. We discuss the issues along a few axes:

How do ideas of victimhood relate to the material reality of international politics?

  • What really are the aims of the protesters and how likely are they to achieve them?

  • Are we cynical in our approach or conclusions?

  • How do the protests relate to populism and the end of the End of History?

  • What is the proper basis of nationhood?

  • How do these protests relate to the millennial Left?

    We also deal with your points on Civil War, the state funding of culture, and whether Joe Rogan is a good male role model.
     
    Readings:

    Vulnerability as Ideology, Peter Ramsay, Northern Star

  • The victimological imagination, Matthew B. Crawford, Substack
