Description:

In episode 18 we sit down with Freddie deBoer, a writer out of Brooklyn, New York, USA. We discuss his classic piece "Planet of Cops" and the culture of constant recrimination and mutual surveillance that has taken hold of the left. We also get into free speech and why leftists should care about it, how to go about dismantling racism as a material, economic process rather than one of inner soul searching and HR trainings, and how to build socialism with freaky options.
