    I’ve been listening since literally episode 1. But the hot take that Luigi is guilty, and using the US state run media’s reporting it’s not giving.

  • Informative and Amusing

    Without reading further than the “What do you get” on their introduction, It could be best described that what you get is top notch information and quality from both the main three hosts and the countless guests, as well as belly laughs and good humor. This podcast has made me break out with joviality on multiple occasions! However there is some problems, best summed up by I believe another reviewer, AnarchistPotato. Other than that, this is an amazing podcast and we all look forward to more.

    This podcast sucked the remaining dregs of liberalism from my soul and help me open my mind to true class consciousness. If you want to learn how loving and respecting fellow humans can lead to a better world, this is a good place to start.

Q: What is it like being an anti-Zionist Jew in a mostly liberal Zionist milieu?
Most of my family agrees with me, which is rare for anti-Zionist Jews in North America. However, some friends and family have become more vocally pro-Zionist since recent events.
Episode 176 - Brazilian Comment Section (Ft. Ian Neves)
Q: What kind of types like to throw money at both the digital and more traditional right-wing media?
Brazil's financial elites, including the landlord bourgeoisie, support revisionist narratives through funding of media that promotes pro-agribusiness ideology.
Episode 176 - Brazilian Comment Section (Ft. Ian Neves)
Q: How do you and local socialists view the Lula presidency for now?
Ian discusses the prevalent Marxist-Leninist view, noting that social democracy is failing again, likening the current situation to the Weimar Republic, emphasizing the restriction of working-class movements due to coalition politics with the right.

Q: What do you think the future of Palestine looks like over the next little while?
It is hard to have a sense of foreboding with current dynamics; we may be looking at endless war.
