La Unión Europea ha introducido la Ley de Servicios Digitales (DSA), que busca regular los contenidos considerados tóxicos en las redes sociales. Aunque la intención declarada es proteger a los ciudadanos, especialmente a los niños, de discursos de odio, desinformación y propaganda, hay preocupaciones sobre su potencial para sofocar la libertad de expresión. La ley obliga a plataformas como Facebook, Google y Amazon a supervisar y eliminar contenido que no cumpla con las normas, bajo amenaza de grandes multas y la posibilidad de ser excluidas del mercado europeo. Además, estas empresas deben revelar sus algoritmos a las autoridades europeas. Esta regulación puede ser utilizada para censurar opiniones disidentes o críticas, y recuerda a las tácticas de censura utilizadas en China. En lugar de promover la innovación, la UE parece centrarse en regular y controlar, con motivaciones que van más allá de la protección ciudadana, incluyendo intereses geopolíticos y la protección del status quo. La implementación de la DSA podría resultar en una censura excesiva por parte de las plataformas, temerosas de las sanciones, lo que haría que Internet en Europa se volviera más restrictivo.

Cedric Johnson is a professor of African-American studies and political science at the University of Illinois at Chicago and author of, most recently, After Black Lives Matter: Policing and Anti-Capitalist Struggle from Verso Books:https://www.versobooks.com/products/3057-after-black-lives-matterBen Burgis chats with Cedric about his book. Before that, Ben and the GTAA crew talk about Ben's most recent Jacobin article on G.A. Cohen ("The Tragic Failure of the Soviet Experiment Doesn't Mean We Should Reject Socialism") and a previous one on human nature arguments against socialism ("Socialism Can Help Contain Humanity's Worst Impulses and Encourage Our Best"), watch a video from a recently unlocked debate Ben did last year in the UK with Labour MP Thangam Debbonaire, and take a moment to remember the late great Michael Brooks. Ed Keenan--the musician and DSA-LA activist behind the TMBS Debunk Song--hangs out in the postgame for GTAA patrons and shares some more of his music.Follow Ben on Twitter: @BenBurgisFollow GTAA on Twitter: @Gtaa_ShowBecome a GTAA Patron and receive numerous benefits ranging from patron-exclusive postgames every Monday night to our undying love and gratitude for helping us keep this thing going:patreon.com/benburgisRead the weekly philosophy Substack:benburgis.substack.com

Sam and Emma host Jules Boykoff, Pacific University professor of politics and government, former US Olympian and author of NOlympians: Inside the Fight Against Capitalist Mega-Sports in Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Beyond, to discuss the Olympics industrial complex and the growing international movement for ending the development of Olympic complexes. They walk through the history of the games as an elite affair, originally created by a French Baron and now a multibillion-dollar corporate industry, and how the International Olympics Committee is able to capitalize on public money and the role of their athletes to make huge material gains for themselves and corporations at the expense of local infrastructure and participating athletes. Professor Boykoff delves into the particularly brutal role the Olympics have in displacing low-income folks in every city they move to, and how this helped spur DSA LA's housing work to move towards establishing the NOlympics project. Jules, Emma, and Sam also look into the history of local protests against the Olympics, and how NOlympics seeks to change these from momentary uprisings to a global movement to end the Olympics as they exist. Emma and Sam round out the first half reflecting on the legacy of anti-imperialist and U.S. Senator Mike Gravel, exploring his biggest moments on the political stage. And in the Fun Half: Tony from Illinois calls in for advice on the best tactics to push Medicare for All in conservative entrenched areas, Mitt Romney plays off the Big Lie as more of a Big Game, comparing U.S. Politics to Wrestling and perhaps explaining his commitment to his heel persona, and Marjorie Taylor Green garners the Sarah Palin comparison as Sam wonders aloud why Bernie has never gotten the birtherism argument pushed against folks like AOC and Obama (it's pretty obvious). Then, Tucker Carlson rallies up white fear, pushing a conspiracy of white genocide, Dan Crenshaw eyes up an age-old dog whistle on Black activism in sports, and Ben from NY reflects on the few lessons learned from the FTV project. They wrap up the fun half by discussing YouTube's algorithms and the importance of building anti-trust infrastructure, and looking into the growth of the Delta variant of COVID alongside vaccine fear-mongering, plus, your calls and IMs!

This includes the release of NOlympics' survey about the 2028 games, the LA84 Foundation's embarrassing "social justice" summit, the fall of the Huizars, the death of the Calgary's 2026 bid, and much, much more.

This week we talk to Rolo, one of the creators of DSA-LA’s proposed Food 4 Solidarity campaign. We also talk about trade policy, the defense budget, and Adam’s summer internship with ISIS.

In episode 41, Falconia (https://soundcloud.com/struggle-session-618688589/episode-41-falconia) the Struggleboys spoke to Rolo Saavedra, founder of the Food 4 Solidarity LA pilot program, which is dedicated to spreading socialism through giving food to underserved communities in undocumented neighborhoods. Now, on Monday, July 23rd, the program is up for a vote to determine whether it is to be accepted into the DSA LA or rejected. JDB sat down with Rolo, Adriana, Kailene, Sergio, Tim, and David to discuss the importance of the project and why dues paying members in LA should vote yes to accept the group into DSA LA. Email them with any questions on Food4SolidarityLA@gmail.com Full Proposal: https://www.dsa-la.org/food_for_solidarity_platform_proposal

SB827 is currently the hot button issue in Los Angeles, YIMBYs versus NIMBYs, as it were. But perhaps there are better ways to understand and fix the housing crisis in Los Angeles as the cost of houses and apartments has skyrocketed in recent years leading to a surge in people without permanent or stable housing. Researcher and DSA-LA member Jacob Woocher swings by the studio to talk about the housing crisis in LA. We cover how LA developed along incredibly racially and class segregated lines, how this has caused a massive housing shortage, and what LA is doing wrong. We also discuss alternative housing models and what a public investment in housing would look like. We have a new musical intro provided by the band Minutes. Check out their track "Raise Our Fists" on their Bandcamp page: https://minutes.bandcamp.com/track/raise-our-fists-up Also for more reading about the housing crisis in California and how the law enforcement is targeting our houseless neighbors check out our coverage on KNOCK-LA.com: https://knock-la.com/tagged/housing

This week on TL4T we've got Part 1 of our 2 part episode with No Olympics LA! We're talking with Steve Ducey and Johnny Coleman, both with DSA LA, and the No Olympics LA campaign. From nolympicsla.com "The Olympics puts the interests of the mega-rich and corporate brands above the interests of athletes, fans, and working people in the cities it commandeers. A Los Angeles Olympics (and Paralympics) would primarily service the corporate interests of the IOC and the state and national political ambitions of Mayor Eric Garcetti. Should LA host the Olympics, we will see wide-ranging human rights’ violations and the forfeiture of our city to the interests of contractors, developers, media corporations, and the special interests who designed the bid."

Josh Androsky @shutupandrosky from Left Coast @leftcoastpod joins us to talk gun control, fergie's pee pants, and the work he's doing toward public banking in california with DSA LA. There was a point when someone said something really funny and then everyone went "that's the episode title" and I don't remember what it was but that should be the episode title. Use your imagination. No bonus ep this week because we wanted to give you Josh fo free

Episode 48 We’re back!!! Where have we been?? Like for real. Where?! We explain. We interview Los Angeles City Councilman for District 4, David E. Ryu, who was elected to his first term in the summer of 2015. The 4th District is at the center of Los Angeles. The unusually shaped district reaches from Koreatown and Mid-Wilshire through Miracle Mile, the Fairfax District, north through much of Hollywood, Los Feliz and Griffith Park, and Silver Lake, and north through the Hollywood Hills, over the Cahuenga Pass into North Hollywood, and Sherman Oaks. What. The scope of Councilmember Ryu's job duties range from the most local like the refilling (and future of) the Silverlake Reservoir, national issues like DACA, and the 2028 Olympics. Ryu is the first Korean-American and only the second Asian-American to serve on the LA City Council. And as of 2017, only Ryu and fellow Councilman José Huizar (District 14) were born outside the US. Councilmember Ryu was born in Seoul, South Korea in 1975 and moved with his family to Los Angeles when he was 6 years old. He holds a BA in Economics from UCLA and a Masters of Public Policy & Administration from Rutgers University. Some of Ryu's core issues are fiscal accountability, limiting the uncontrolled expansion of homes, and restoring trust in government.

We are very excited to be joined by some special guests as we break down the presence and efficacy of comedy in the era of Donald Trump. Kelsey Goldberg is a writer, director, sketch comedian, and an organizer with the Democratic Socialists of America, Los Angeles chapter. She can be found on Twitter @KelseyFGold. Leann Bowen is a writer for the show DEAR WHITE PEOPLE and a DSA-LA organizer. She can be found on Twitter @Leann_Bowen.

On this episode, Matt & Jesse have a discussion with Kelsey Goldberg (@KelseyFGold) and Jack Suria Linares (@SuriaLinares213) from DSA-Los Angeles chapter about the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Kelsey and Jack explore their childhood and later political awakening by describing the moment (or moments) that led to not only their transcendent belief in socialism, but how they went beyond mere beliefs by deciding to take action and become activists and organizers via their self-discovery process. We will also learn about DSA's history and contributions, as well as its future aims as a consequence of its recent National Convention. Additionally, our visitors to the show will talk about what DSA-LA has in the revolutionary pot that's about to boil over into a Mario-Brothers pasta of comrade-goodness. By the very end of this podcast episode, Kelsey, Jesse and Jack get our ‘DSA-Curious' Comrade, Matthew, to break down his resistance and finally #TrySocialism.

His massive body of work, which includes nearly 100 books, has for decades deflated and exposed the lies of the power elite and the myths they perpetrate. Chomsky has done this despite being blacklisted by the commercial media, turned into a pariah by the academy and, by his own admission, being a pedantic and at times slightly boring speaker. He combines moral autonomy with rigorous scholarship, a remarkable grasp of detail and a searing intellect. He curtly dismisses our two-party system as a mirage orchestrated by the corporate state, excoriates the liberal intelligentsia for being fops and courtiers and describes the drivel of the commercial media as a form of ‘brainwashing.'” Al Jazeera: “More Americans Joining Socialist Groups Under Trump” The New Republic: “Are the Democratic Socialists of America For Real?” Sarah Silverman at the DNC Convention in 2016: “Can I just say, to the Bernie or Bust People, You're Being Ridiculous.” Matthew Snyder's Co-Organizing for the First Fundraiser in the I.E. for Sanders' Presidential Run: “Our Barn-Storming-for-Bernie Fundraiser in the I.E.” {July 18th, 2015} Why People Support Bernie Sanders from Such a Broad Spectrum of American Society?

Jon DA @GrouchoMarxist joins hosts Communal Sauce and Tiberius Gracchus to dunk on libs who can't tell the difference between Harry Potter and real life. Also we talk about DSA LA and bottom-up institutions, but that's less interesting
