The Antifada

In the first installment of our new history and theory series "History is a Weapon," Sean breaks down historical materialism, a thing we talk about a lot but have never really explained...

In this very conspiratorial episode, the crew is joined by Tanz, writer, researcher, and PhD candidate in the CUNY Grad Center's social psychology program, to talk about a pamphlet she co-authored, "How to Overthrow the Illuminati," which can be found at https://overthrowingilluminati.wordpress.com

Alex Jones, David Icke, 9/11 truthers, and the mainstreaming of conspiracy theories. The flat earth people make tankies of us all...

The gang is joined by writer David Klion (@DavidKlion) to talk New York's Democratic primaries, the socialist read on Trump/Russia, and the need for a left internationalism.

The various reactions to Julia Salazar's NY State Senate win and what it means when the libs think they have to be nice to us. We all drag the fuck out of hasbara hack Bari Weiss, of whose bad takes Sean cannot get enough. Jamie and Sean get divorced x 2...

In this patrons-only bonus, Jake (@feraljokes) tells a touching tale about chasing Joe Rogan around LA trying to get on his show like Captain Ahab chasing a very stoned white whale. Plus: a close reading of Elon Musk smoking weed on Joe Rogan. We watched the whole thing so you don't have to!

While on vacation last week, the Antifada crew decided to mix it up a little by each doing a standalone segment. For her contribution, Jamie spoke with her old friend Anna Barie a.k.a. Nora Singh of Los Angeles punk band Hit Bargain about life on the road, Situationism, and what it means to be the Gallagher of noise rock...

This week on the Militant Minority Report, we get even more seditious than usual with the help of army resister Spenser Rapone (@punkproletarian).

Mike Ness of Social Distortion brings a smile to our faces. Spenser's journey from 18-year-old recruit to dank communist meme. The relationship between capitalism and imperialism: Is it even possible to oppose war without attacking the wage system? The pitfalls of knee-jerk anti-imperialism...

After recording episode 18 with Comrade Communicator of the Intergalactic Workers League, Andy compelled us to engage with a previously unpublished work by J. Posadas called 'On the Function of the Joke and Irony in History' from 1976...
