Cass Sunstein, Harvard professor and author of the new book On Liberalism: in Defense of Freedom, joins Offline to examine whether small-l "liberal" values like freedom, human rights, and the rule of law will be able to survive an illiberal president. Cass compares and contrasts what Trump and Vance are doing with the actions of the Bush and Reagan administrations, debates whether liberalism is a strong enough antidote to fascism, and reveals his #1 pop obsession.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

It's time for a new patron reading group, and we've chosen 'Disaster Nationalism' by Richard Seymour. The gang gets started with the introduction, which means there is still time to become part of the group. If so, go to the Discord to join in.From the publisher:Liberal civilisation is in crisis - now is a time of monsters.While the spotlight often shines on the actions of charismatic right-wing leaders such as Donald Trump and Jair Bolsonaro, defeating these people will not stem the tide behind them. They are the embodiment of profound forces that are rarely understood. With meticulous analysis and compelling storytelling, Richard Seymour delves into the ideologies fueling the contemporary right and distorting modern politics into something abhorrent and nihilistic. The battle against disaster nationalism is not just political; it is a struggle for our collective soul and the future of civilization.Send us a message (sorry we can't respond on here).

Rey concludes the three part series on Traditionalism by talking about the "super-fascist" fake baron Julius Evola. Before WW2, Evola was trying to ideologically influence both Italian fascism and German National-Socialism, and after the war he became the ideologue of Neo-Fascist terrorist groups.

Welcome to the place where we get to let our geek flags fly and talk about all things geek. Basically a fuzzy guide to life, the universe, and everything but mostly geek stuff. Over the last few months, Blue and I have been having fun discussing monsters in the geeky culture that pops while the world around us is just bonkers in real life. We decided it was time to discuss some real monsters… fascists. We relate the conversation more to geek properties than politics but the subtext is there. Fascism sucks and here's any trigger warning you might need for a deeper and more real talk than normal. According to George Orwell, telling the truth is a revolutionary act and this is our small part in not being complicit. The timing felt right and necessary and I hope you agree.Congrats on completing Level 463! Feel free to contact me on social media (@wookieeriot).

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 179 As we recently explored, the Russian national socialist Aleksandr Dugin (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/09/the-russian-national-socialism-of-aleksandr-dugin/) is weird. Said to be Vladimir Putin's "brain," an unlikely claim, he has been publishing extremist and fascist philosophy for decades, much of which has been leaking into American right-wing (Woke Right) thought rather substantially in recent years. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads from a short, creepy essay Dugin wrote for the Russian National Bolshevik magazine in 1995, titled "The Gnostic," (https://eurasianist-archive.com/2019/03/09/the-gnostic/) in which he makes the explicit case for following "left-hand path" (black, or Satanic) magic. In fact, he links this "magic" to Communism and Fascism and more. In this episode, Lindsay reads Dugin's bizarre essay and explains his concept of sociognosticism that makes sense of it. Join him to learn about this darkness threatening MAGA and American conservatism. Latest from New Discourses Press!

After Donald Trump was elected for a second time, historian Timothy Snyder wrote this in the New Yorker: “Trump has always been a presence, not an absence: the presence of fascism.” Today on Front Burner, Snyder makes that case again. His warning about fascism feels particularly relevant at this point in Trump's presidency, as the U.S. sees an escalation in political violence, the deployment of federal law enforcement in major cities, and the proliferation of masked ICE agents on what critics call ‘roving patrols' across the country.Timothy Snyder teaches at the University of Toronto's Munk School of Global Affairs. He is the author of books like “On Tyranny” and “On Freedom”.We'd love to hear from you!

From Margaret Atwood to Alan Moore, from 1984 to Andor, science fiction has gamed out totalitarian futures better than most political analysts. But does it have the answers to stopping the rise of fascism? Writer, critic and host of a fascinating online science fiction community Damien Walter discusses the lessons of future oligarchs, space tyrants and cosmic populism with Andrew Harrison. Which sci-fi dictator does Donald Trump most resemble? Are V For Vendetta and Judge Dredd warnings or instruction manuals? And if Andor is Marxist-Leninist, is the Star Wars story of restoring a genetic elite of magic knights actually fascist? • Watch Damien's brilliant explorations of science fiction on YouTube and hear his Science Fiction podcast. • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • Head to nakedwines.co.uk/thebunker to get 6 top-rated wines from our sponsor Naked Wines for £39.99, delivery included. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

Adam and guest co-host Danger Van Gorder discuss the Jimmy Kimmel suspension and the protests that erupted around it and Trump's Antifa terrorism designation, and talk to immigration activist Aldo Martinez Gomez about the antics ICE has been getting up to recently.
Instead of discarding concepts like evil or the devil, the West has reconstituted a secular version in the person of Adolf Hitler and the ideology of fascism. One does not debate the devil, one slays the devil, and the same is true of the fascist. This is why the Left is now calling basic conservative ideas fascist, because leftists are laying out the justification for political violence.

It ain't as bleak as it seems.
I invited Alex Perez and Ross Barkan to join me for this episode of the podcast because I'd seen both of them write essays or posts recently reflecting on their days as baseball players.Ross, as you'll hear, topped out as a decent high school player. Alex was recruited to play for a top college team, and for a while had not implausible dreams of playing professionally.Both have experienced an intimate relationship between baseball and their lives and identities as writers.We talk about that. We also talk about the locker room culture and camaraderie of sports teams in general, its complicated set of pros and cons. We talk about the rival cultures of sports and literature, and how class status and mores play out in these two domains.One of my old friends who listens to the show said to me once that it's all really just about men and masculinity. I don't think that's quite true, but it's not totally untrue either. I could easily assemble a playlist of episodes of the podcast that deal either explicitly or heavily implicitly with the topic, and this one would certainly be on it.Ross is a writer and author who writes most often for New York magazine and also frequently for the New York Times Magazine. He is the founder and co-editor of the Substack native publication The Metropolitan Review, and his latest books are a novel, Glass Century, and a nonfiction work, Fascism or Genocide: How a Decade of Political Disorder Broke American Politics. He's working on a book about presumptive New York mayor Zohran Mamdani.Alex is an associate editor at Panamerica Books, which is the new publishing imprint of County Highway. He's also an editor for Real Clear Books, and has written for Tablet, County Highway, Compact, and other places. My opening anointment of him as an eminent America “by the power vested in me by the white women of publishing,” is a reference to a notorious interview he did with the Hobart Review (which I would link to except that it's been taken down from their site) that featured a great deal of his unvarnished thoughts on issues of race, gender, and class in publishing. It led to a total meltdown of that journal as well as the creation of a general aura around Alex as a kind of barbarian of the literary scene.It's a fun conversation. Hope you enjoy.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 129 We've all heard it before: "real Communism has never been tried!" Yeah, yeah. Well, here's the thing. "Real Communism" can never be tried, so this old canard isn't saying anything interesting at all. The reason is that "real Communism" is the utopian end state of Communism as an eschatological (end-times) religion. It never actually arrives. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks this simple fact down and reveals the same exact thing is also believed about "real Fascism." You won't want to miss it.

This week, we're delving deep into a question that's been making the rounds on those very large political never-Trump websites: Why don't Democrats have their own Charlie Kirk network?What's the real secret behind the conservative propaganda machine's success? Spoiler alert: it's not "moxie," fearlessness, or bootstraps. Surprise! It's billions in oligarch money—what many observers have coined 'the Patient Capital of Fascism,'—that built Kirk's empire and transformed American politics.How did a "rinky-dink Twitter hashtag" become a multimillion-dollar media operation? Why can Republicans lie with impunity while facing zero accountability? And what happens when unlimited money meets unlimited power in the hands of fascists, grifters, and lunatics?We'll explore the real-world consequences hitting farmers, construction workers, and disaster-torn communities. Why is FEMA paralyzed? How is Trump extorting Big Tech for millions? And what's behind the tasteless silver medallion grift that started before Kirk's body was even cold?Join us as we connect the money, the propaganda, and the immunity Republicans have purchased over decades of patient investment.More at proleftpod.com.Not safe for work.

Democrats keep calling Trump and his supporters “fascists” — but what do they actually mean? In this episode, Tara and Lee break down Joy Reid's shocking description of “fascism” and reveal how her definition sounds less like tyranny and more like old-fashioned American freedom. From the history of income taxes to government looting through NGOs, IRS overreach, and distorted definitions of socialism and fascism, this episode pulls back the curtain on the left's rhetoric. Learn why the real fight isn't about fascism at all — it's about who gets to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
From distorted definitions of fascism to Marxist-inspired NGO schemes, school board chaos, and illegal immigration loopholes, this episode dives deep into the left's narrative versus reality. Tara and Lee dissect Joy Reid's shocking take on “fascism,” explore Democrat-led financial schemes, and break down the latest Antifa threats and bizarre school incidents. Then, they pivot to international tension: the potential sale of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine and NATO, the risks of direct U.S. involvement, and why missteps could spark a catastrophic conflict with Russia. This episode is a full-spectrum look at political, domestic, and global issues, exposing the truths the mainstream media won't cover.
The Financial Guys break down the latest shooting and how dangerous political rhetoric fuels violence, calling out leaders for stoking division. Mike and Mike also shine a light on the mental health crisis facing veterans, misplaced government spending priorities, and the moral decay in liberal cities. From Schumer's 1996 immigration stance to today's Democrat policies, they trace how the party shifted—and why Americans are waking up to the consequences.

In this second episode of our fascism series, Cameron and Ray trace the roots of fascism from the French Revolution through the 19th century and into the early 20th century. They explore how nationalism, the Enlightenment and Counter-Enlightenment, industrial upheaval, social Darwinism, Nietzsche's philosophy, Bismarck's realpolitik, futurism, and mass psychology all fed into the eventual rise of fascism. Along the way, they compare past anxieties about modernity with today's fears of AI and technology, dig into the religious devotion of MAGA Trumpism, and unpack the Italian Fascist Manifesto of 1919. By the end, the groundwork is set for how Mussolini and others fused these cultural, philosophical, and political threads into a movement that would reshape the 20th century. The post #138 – Fascism: The Remix of History's Worst Ideas (Fascism part 2) appeared first on The BS Filter.
Back in the USA! Anna rejoins her gang for this action-packed, newsy Happy Hour where the Playlisters share their thoughts on Pete Hegseth's Pentagon TED talk, the latest in the government shutdown, highlighting Republican Congressman Mike Lawler, who's on our playlist this week. And later in the show, they discuss how to talk about Fascism, the buzzy world that has rankled some Republicans as of late. And lastly we dig deep to find the win of the week, which is unequivocally Spencer Cox, the Governor of Utah.
Donald Trump and the Republican Party rebranded conservatism as America First nationalism and have embraced corporatism and fascism over economic freedom.
Jason Whitlock is joined by Shemeka Michelle, Chad O. Jackson, Virgil Walker, and Wilfred Reilly to discuss Don Lemon telling white men something deep inside them is “broken” and Joy Reid saying fascism involves family inheritance and getting rid of income tax and regulation.

For the umpteenth time, this should never happen in America. This is what our founders feared. And in the year 2025, it's exactly what Trump is doing.

The house is on fire, and too many people are still pretending it's just a candle burning. This is the first episode of Red, White & Bruised, a weekly political analysis series. Every Sunday, I'll discuss the headlines and give my two cents on this current hellscape that we are living through. For the debut, we're walking step by step through Donald Trump's march toward authoritarianism, a documented trail of power grabs that's dragged this country closer to fascism than most people want to admit. This isn't speculation. This isn't “both sides.” It's the ugly truth, and it's time we stop pretending everything is fine. If you're ready to cut through the noise, face reality head-on, and get a little bruised along the way, you're in the right place.-----------------------------------------------Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-a-true-crime-podcast--4433638/support.
