Capitalism is more than just an economic system, it's also a form of sorcery. In this episode with special guest Otis Bell, we discuss what spells capitalism and colonialism ensorcel us with to normalize or "naturalize" racism, classism, patriarchy, ecocide, and so on. In particular we will discuss who is sacrificed upon the altars of capitalism, what constitutes a capitalist-colonial altar, racist theories of social evolution, private property, epistemicide, the cult of normalcy, Eurocentric universalism, and more.
