We celebrate MISCHIEF NIGHT with the scariest show on the internet: MINION DEATH CULT. Hosts Anthony Edwards and Tony Boswell find the scariest, most derange, and dumbest boomer posts online and read them slow enough to truly grasp their inanity. After sharing some dumb Halloween stories, we look at an evangelical plot to infiltrate costume shops, commemorate last years' Nov 4 Antifa supersoldier revolution, recall the Infowars hit piece on Jamie earlier this year, and close out with some Tim Pool Joker-posting.

Closing song: Marilyn Manson - This is Halloween

Matt and Sean dive into the historical materialist trenches once more!

On this HIAW, we address suburbia and its discontents: How has the unique social geography of the United States affected its political and economic development? How are class relations reflected in the built environment? Why did the suburbs arise as a unique solution to social crisis in the post-war era? And what sort of mentalities and ideologies arose out of these milieux?

Part 2 on the decline of suburbia and the new housing crisis coming next week!

Outro: The Descendents - Suburban Home

Shyam Khanna, editor of Commune mag, joins us for a sneak peek into issue #4 and a breakdown of Saturday's Bernie Sanders rally from an ultraleft wrecker POV. Josh Strawn, half of darkwave duo Azar Swan, also joins us for a discussion of his band's new record, what the kids are listening to these days, fascism and music, and why Billy Joel has better politics than Nick Cave. The first of at least two Halloween episodes!

Catch Azar Swan live at Jamie's benefit show for El Comedor this coming Friday, October 25th at Trans Pecos in NYC! Tickets here.

The first episode of Andy's newest side project focusing on Latin American politics and history, Talkin' 'Tina!

BreadTuber BAD EMPANADA joins us to talk about the upcoming elections in Argentina that will return Kirchernismo to power after four years of Mauricio Macri's neoliberal buffoonery, but can left-populist Peronism walk the country back from the brink of economic collapse, or will there be a new insurrection like in 2000? And who do the Posadists support?

After that we discuss the life and politics of Che Guevara and the claims that he was a blood-soaked homophobic murderer. We talk about the excesses of the Cuban government, the extent of Che's role in them, and some of our favorite stories of the revolution and after.

In this installment, Matt and Sean shoot a little shit about the radical geography of Europe before we plunge into the pool of disco and despair that was the 1970s: how the global crisis upended the 'Golden Age' of American capitalism, how Richard Nixon rode a wave of aggrievement to become the voice of a 'silent majority' in backlash, and how the uneasy alliance between organized labor and the Democratic Party began to fracture as stagflation undermined the post-war compromise.

Part II (another goddamn hour-and-a-half of historical goodness: the complete the story of how this thing called neoliberalism came to dominance, how it, too, is now crumbling, and how we might dialectically overcome the limitations of working class self-organization evident in previous cycles of struggle) available here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/antifadas-is-4-w-27337372

Outro: The Mekons - 'Hello Cruel World'

Everyone loves Bernie Sanders and hates Angela Nagle, but when it comes to the enforcement of borders, their politics are basically the same. Using the power of HISTORICAL MATERIALISM, returning guest Ross Wolfe (@RossWolfe) traces the origins of the modern nation state, explains the limits of economic nationalism and social democracy in one country, and makes the case for why nothing short of GLOBAL COMMUNIST REVOLUTION is necessary to avoid a descent into fascism and horror.

Read Ross's piece, 'Nationalism, Borders and the State' at The Brooklyn Rail or MR online.
