Finally back for another episode of the podcast, this time talking about Adorno and Horkheimer's analysis of the how irrationality within the enlightenment leads to fascism, its connection to new age astrology, and how this perfectly combines into an analysis of QAnon in the contemporary period.

A big thank you to @ArifHasanNFL for helping me with some of the Adorno and Horkheimer "Dialectics of Enlightenment" stuff, as well as @QanonAnonymous for providing me with the new age example of "Krystal Tini" in their 94th episode: Qanonanonymous – Episode-94-the-new-age-to-qanon-pipeline
