Twink Revolution Podcast

Oh, mournful morning, when I awoke in Tacoma and saw, alas, my Tinder lacked a Vaushian option! Who will be inside me within two hours as I discuss the Election Victory Party in the Castro? Or as I review the Pinkwashing attempts of the Trump and Biden campaigns? Or as I discuss the events in Kenosha, WI and Portland, OR? Woe is me, indeed. Perhaps I shall go on a general strike until my dearest Vaush agrees to occupy my person once again.

Twink Rev on Thot Topics Episode 30

We're joined by Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) to discuss his amazing life, the attacks against him and his marriage, Alex Morse, Aaron Coleman, the state of journalism, Brazillian politics, and his reflections on the upcoming US election and the forgotten lessons from the Bush era.

Article: The Woke Resurrection of a Gay Sex Panic by River Page

Oh my god! They're eating dogs in North Korea! And they're doing cringe at the DNC!!!!! And there's an American version of Eurovision coming, but the dogs are probably safe there!!!!!!!!

We mourn the loss of a horrible gay bar in San Francisco, wade into the Alex Morse age gap hysteria, give our thoughts on Kamala as VP, and try to figure out why so many people think they know what's going on in Belarus right now.

We're joined by Esperanza Fonseca (@endclasssociety) to discuss her recent open letter that provides a left critique of the sex trade, both in the US and internationally. Esperanza provides a fascinating counter-narrative to liberal and leftist sex work discourse orthodoxy, and shares some of her own experiences and solutions with us.

(Friends, this ep has a frank discussion of sexual violence and rape, so if you don't want to hear that, maybe skip over to the next one)

A Socialist, Feminist, and Transgender Analysis of Sex Work

For this monster 2-hour episode, we try to unpick some of the confusing geopolitics of the recent explosion in Beirut. We're joined by Mila Ghorayeb (@sedcontra_) to discuss the disaster itself and the international response to it. We also wade into how imperialist discourse works, whether cancel culture is real or has any power, Iranians and bananas, and a lot more!

Twink Revolution on Patreon

We're joined by Anna Khachiyan (@annakhachiyan), co-host of Red Scare and internet punching bag. We cover a very wide range of topics - the plight of women, gays, and just about anybody else. We talk about Cottagecore, "trad" aesthetics (and what people miss about them), and the politics of being tolerant of people who are wrong but interesting.

We're joined by Australians Tom Ballard (@TomCBallard) and Aimee Terese (RIP) to try to chart a course from here. Sometimes you need global (read: Australian) solutions to local problems. We don't get very far and we probably didn't fix all the world's problems, but at least we tried, right?

Want to be parted with your money on various Patreons? You can, with Tom's, What's Left, or Twink Revolution!

I think we're alone now… and Elon Musk has thoughts on socialism, Saira Rao has thoughts on white people, the US state department has thoughts on gays in Chechnya, and Angela Nagle has thoughts on Ireland. All this and more!

We're joined by journalist, writer, communist, and political analyst Caleb Mapin. We discuss the New Left, actual Nazbols, tankies, Socialism with American Characteristics, correcting the historical record of revolutions around the world, being religious and Marxist, and his experiences traveling in Iran. All this and more!
