Park Bench Ontology

S16E12: Capitalism isn’t natural


Listen Later

In this solo episode of Uncolonized, Gavin dives into the philosophy of Herbert Marcuse and how it connects to his real-life experiences with people who give off an uncanny valley vibe. He unpacks how this mindset makes capitalism feel like the natural order, making it harder to see the system at play. Critical thought is dismissed, replaced with endless consumption—so how do we break free? Tune in for a deep dive into ideology, reality, and the struggle to think beyond the script.
