In our latest, @berlantbro.bsky.social joins us to discuss how liberals dismiss protest as merely “performative”—youthful, “inauthentic,” or “cringe”—and how allegations of performativity try to turn the act of politics into a problem of optics and manners

In our latest, we explore an odious attempt by Freddie deBoer to make a case for involuntary commitment, in which he claims “the disability activist community and their enablers in the media have done everything in their power to obscure the truth.”

This episode rocks. Just hearing someone else react to this BS the same way that I do makes me feel better. Then there's also great context and analysis from some great hosts.

"Masks did not become a symbol of solidarity overnight...There is still much work to be done. But if you ever stopped masking, there has rarely been a better time to start again. Mask up and show your solidarity. Eric Adams will hate it."

If, like me, you live in NC and voted for Roy Cooper, please take 2 minutes this morning to call the Governor’s office and demand a veto on HB237, “unmasking mobs and criminals.” 919-814-2000. Yes, the supermajority may override the veto. Don’t let them have this without a fight.

In our latest, we look at the rise of anti-mask legislation in New York and North Carolina: how North Carolina managed to make its mask ban worse, why New York Democrats are trying the same thing, and how the rise of bans is an attempt to break solidarity

In our latest, we discuss recent attempts to portray social distancing guidance as a “costly” overreach with no science to support it, and how this new round of controversy omits significant context about 2021’s political battles over social distancing

Always so wonderful to talk to @melissagiragrant.com especially so when I’m feeling thoroughly demoralized by constant exposure to cynical campaign ads in this election cycle. There is a time and a place for abstraction & it’s 100% not when you’re discussing expanding regimes of criminalization ❤️‍🔥

In our latest we take a close look at the recent Atlantic piece that asserted “it is possible to kill children legally” and how the piece’s surrounding argument attempts to launder justification for genocide through a veneer of statistics and “objectivity”

We had a plan for an entirely different episode for today, but put that to the side this morning to talk about the last 24 hours and Rafah. Fuck the IOF. Free Palestine.

A much more raw and personal episode than usual. With an hour to go until recording we decided that we couldn’t talk about anything else other than Rafah. I’ve said this over and over for the last eight months but I especially mean it today: Fuck the IOF. Free Palestine.
