In this episode, I ask Issac about his journey from a conscious rapper to “LeftTuber”, how he was “radicalized” and how being loudly critical of Israel made him isolated in the music industry. Most importantly, we discuss the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the untold history of Israel, why America really supports Israel, and the myths of “liberal zionism.” In The Backroom on Patreon, Issac and I talk about The Global Gender Political Divide, in which I pitch my theory of what is causing it, what most leftists miss, and how this contributes to Men moving to the right.

Get access to The Backroom Exclusive podcasts by becoming a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/OneDime In this spicy episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Simone & Malcolm Collins, known as the “pronatalist” power couple who went viral following media attacks on “The Pronatalist Movement” - a response to the global fertility crisis and how birth rates are rapidly declining everywhere, especially in Asia and Latin America. Malcolm and Simone Collins host the podcast called “Based Camp” and are the founders of “The Pragmatist Institute.” Together, they have published multiple books, such as “The Pragmatist's Guide to Crafting Religion” (Being the only one I read). Simone & Malcolm Collins consider themselves to be part of “The New Right” - a pro-tech progressive conservative movement that is anti-racist, pluralistic, tolerant of sexuality, yet pro-religion and quite socially conservative for today's standards. So, full disclosure: even though Malcolm & Simone Collins are quite unconventional conservatives, they still see themselves as part of the Right and are trying to reform the Republican party. In this episode, after getting Simone & Malcolm Collins to clarify their political positions, I try to challenge views on Capitalism, Socialism, and contemporary American politics in general. In The Backroom on Patreon, I challenge Malcolm Collins's views on the modern Conservative movement and his belief that the Republican Party is the lesser evil.

We also discuss the ways in which Nietzsche's work is often misunderstood, appropriated, or diluted by people on the right and left. In The Backroom segment on Patreon, Keegan and I critique Jordan Peterson's understanding of Nietzsche and the ways in which popular “Petersonian” YouTube channels such as “Academy of Ideas” and “Thoughts on Thinking” distort Nietzche.

Get access to The Backroom Exclusive podcasts by becoming a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/OneDime In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Victor Bruzzone of the Pill Pod (Plastic Pills Podcast) to discuss forms of radical democracy such as Sortition - “the lot system” in which representatives are selected at random by lottery. It was used in Ancient Athens and for a time also in the Republics of Florence, Venice and Genoa. Sortition is not the same thing as “direct democracy,” such as assembly (which was also used in Athenian Democracy). The Marxist Paul Cockshott also proposes the sortition system in his book, “Towards a New Socialism.” In The Backroom, Victor proposes his own variant of sortition, which he has been working on, which I found quite fascinating and innovative. You don't want to miss it.
