Well, here’s our second episode, it was originally supposed to be on Fascism, the rise of right wing extremism, illiberalism, democratic backsliding, I wound up having so much more to say by the time this episode was done.
I essentially got through talking about the MAGA movement as a fascist revolution, and ran out of time. So, I’m already planning for the next bi-weekly episode, for March 1st, which will continue out discussing on fascism, the rise of the right, and hopefully be able to focus on the creation of the economic pressures that enable fascism, whilst still allowing the neo-capitalist class to profit.
So, turn on! Tune in! And hang out, let’s talk about these important issues, what’s happening, and speak truth to power.
My name is Joel Green, I’m the old man on campus, let’s talk about this stuff.
and this week’s playlist is:
1. “B for Bourgeoisie” by King Lobster Krew
2. “Northern Star“ by Danny Michel
3. “Born on the Bayou” by Creedence Clearwater Revival (live at Woodstock)
4. “The Magnificent Seven” by Kokolo (a Clash song)
Now, I think I’m going to put a post on out facebook page “The Truth to Power Hour”, with a poll, since I bragged so much about Oscar Peterson’s live performance of Hymn to Freedom, and Also CCR’s performance at Woodstock, what if I allowed one song during the hour be dedicated to a live performance that’s better, or maybe just has a different energy than the recorded version.
Maybe I’ll try that out.
But in the meantime, here’s our episode on Fascism. We’ll be continuing this conversation in two weeks. Because there is so much more to be said.
Stay tuned Canada.
