Karl Marx, If You See This, Please Save Us


Listen Later

This week, we're talking about how Karl Marx high key ate, why healthcare in the United States is a scam and Tik Tok's favorite hitman Luigi Mangione. We may not have the answers or know what to do about the horrors of late-stage capitalism, but we break down some of Marx's theories and share some (super fun!) facts about our healthcare system. Spoiler: if you don't have health insurance, or even if you do, don't get sick! #SendHelp
