This Wreckage

Editors of PINKO, the new journal of GAY COMMUNISM, join us to talk about their kickstarter stretch goals, contents of the new issue, meta-pinkwashing, and space colonialism. In the second half of the episode we do a reading of their awesome editorial statement and Jasmine gives us a crash course in Philly slang.

Closing song: KOTA the Friend - Philly Jawn

Friend of the show Molly Crabapple (@mollycrabapple) joins us to talk about getting arrested with a bunch of her fellow Jews at last week's Amazon/ICE protest, the Punisher logo, and the importance of antifascism. She then gives us an overview of the protests in Puerto Rico that exploded when now-former governor Ricardo Rosselló's ghoulish frat boy chat logs were leaked to the press. Asambleas! Flags! The nationalism of the colonial subject! Ricky Martin!

Outro music -- Residente, iLe and Bad Bunny, 'Afilando los Cuchillos'

Simone discusses her viral "praxis" video. More irony talk, anti-intellectualism on the left, and the pitfalls of "normie socialism." We conduct a worker's inquiry into Simone's nanny job and her experience with Gen-Z, a group of kind and rational humans we are definitely not afraid of being turned into pelts by. Andy spills the beans about his online chess habit.
