  • strategising concrete wins

    have been regularly listening to DPS for over two years now, and I thought of writing up this review as I was reflecting on this platform—I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say that this has been fundamental to my political-strategic formation. Keeping up w/ Adam Proctor and his suite of guests maps out how gains can be concretized to make people’s lives less undignified, less indecent. Brings in nuance. Thanks DPS.

  • Truth and thoughtful analysis

    Favorite episode will always be #28, it was the first time I had ever heard the truth about how the US, and its allies including Saudi Arabia lit the match that propped up ISIS that led to the Yazidi Genocide.
