Politigram ethnographer Joshua Citarella shares his observations about the online post-left, particularly its zoomer base radicalized in 2016 meme wars. We discuss how important were memes to Trumps' victory, their political journey since then, and how the left can de/re-radicalize those committed to the violent right. Finally, we discuss the phenomenon of memes becoming reality, especially in the context of Unite the Right in Charlottesville and the CHAZ/CHOP in Seattle.

Then the crew discuss the shadowy feds invading Portland, dropping fertility rates, the Mary Trump interview, and that fucking letter.

On this new installment of HIAW, Matt and Sean are joined by para-political expert Andy to talk about the political economy of intelligence and counterintelligence: How is this formation unique to capitalism and the bourgeois state? What is the connection between the deep state and anti-communism? What roles do the mafia and drug-running play? How powerful and pervasive is this apparatus? And what the hell do we do with all this paranoia-inducting info when we have it??
This first half is free for all. The second will be released later in the week for patrons only. Consider becoming at patron today at www.patreon.com/theantifada

Our guest this week is Nick Estes, citizen of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe, Assistant Professor of American Studies at University of New Mexico, host of the Red Nation Podcast, and author of Our History is the Future: Standing Rock Versus the Dakota Access Pipeline, and the Long Tradition of Indigenous Resistance.
We discuss the link between indigenous and black struggles in the context of the no-DAPL blockade at Standing Rock and Black Lives Matter, statue removals and vandalism in New Mexico and in New York at #OccupyCityHall, whether attacking statues of Lincoln and Grant are "justified," and the final boss: Mt. Rushmore. Finally we chat about the tensions and intersections between decolonization and revolutionary communism.

In this edition of Vampire Castle, Jamie and Leslie discuss two coming-of-ageless films: Tomas Alfredson's Let The Right One In (2008) and Neil Jordan's Byzantium (2012) aka Ladybird II. If you are turned as a teen, do you stay an asshole forever or do you eventually grow up? How is Sweden so lovely yet so terrifying? And why do vamps always say they can't be friends with you right before they fall in love with you for all eternity? Listen on for answers to these and other bloodsucking questions.
Theme music: Intellectual Darkwave
