The Regrettable Century

The old forms of the left are moribund and the new forms are stupid. We're making a podcast that discusses the need to organize a dialectical pessimism and develop a Marxist salvage project capable of putting up a good fight as the world burns around us. A clean, honest, and unsentimental melancholy is required; we are cultivating one and would like to share it with you.

episode 14: Imagining the End: Climate Catastrophe, Mass Extinction, and Utopia


Its been said elsewhere that it is easier to imagine the end of the world than it is to imagine the end of capitalism.  Well, that may be true, but it doesn't take much imagining to conceive of the end of the world. We are currently living though the end of the world. Who would have thought it would be so boring?

Join us as we lament our collective willingness to go gentle into that good night.
