Episode 4160 │ June 27, 2026 A chairman for life, $17 billion unaudited, and a founding member the ICC wants for killing children. They call it, The Board of Peace. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS Dispatch Two of The Eighteenth Brumaire of Donald Trump follows the permission structure documented in Dispatch One into the architecture behind it — tracing the Board of Peace, a privately governed institution chaired for life by President Trump with $17 billion in unaudited sovereign donations held at JP Morgan, no democratic accountability, and a founding member who accepted his seat by phone because Switzerland was legally obligated to arrest him for crimes against humanity if he landed, and the Pentagon technology architecture now being consolidated under a civilian whose own words name Peter Thiel's Palantir as the future of American defense. Scott Kesterson then maps the Peter Thiel network — co-founder of PayPal, Facebook's first outside investor, founder of Palantir, co-founder of the Dialog Society that has operated secretly for 20 years, funder of JD Vance's Senate campaign, and publisher of the 2009 essay stating democracy and freedom are incompatible — against the documented placements of Thiel-connected figures throughout the Trump administration, the Pentagon AI architecture, and the Board of Peace. The episode closes with the Brumaire mechanism named precisely: the most sophisticated influence operation is not the one that lies about the problem — it is the one that tells the truth about the problem and controls the map to the solution. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED  What is the Board of Peace — who chairs it for life, who holds its $17 billion in unaudited donations, why could one of its founding members only accept his seat by phone, and where does the $400 million Qatari aircraft go when Trump leaves office? What is the documented relationship between Peter Thiel, JD Vance, Emil Michael at the Pentagon, Palantir's AI targeting architecture, and the Dialog Society — and what does Thiel's own published statement that democracy and freedom are incompatible mean for the institutions being dismantled around it? What is the Brumaire mechanism — and how does the pattern Marx documented in 1852 France, that Paine lived and nearly died for, map onto the America First movement's energy being used to demolish the institutional architecture that constrained the very billionaire class the movement was supposed to challenge?

We're proud to welcome Allen Eyles, author of 1966's The Marx Brothers: Their World of Comedy—the first book to seriously analyze the team's output—and its successor, 1992's The Complete Films of the Marx Brothers, for his first-ever podcast on these landmark works. The conversation ranges from Eyles' favourite (see what we did there) British comedians to his accidental status as the world's foremost authority on the missing Horse Feathers footage. Along the way, he recalls the Herculean efforts needed to study Marx films in the pre home-video era, and reflects on his evolving opinions of the Brothers' filmography.

In this episode, the speaker takes a hard look at the Colorado gubernatorial primary, where the Republican candidates are vying for the top spot. With the primary just days away, the speaker shares their thoughts on the current state of the Republican Party and the challenges it faces in the general election.The speaker discusses the importance of choosing a candidate who can win in November, rather than just focusing on the primary. They highlight the need for a candidate who can garner at least 40-45% of the vote, which would show momentum and a desire for change. The speaker also touches on the current state of the Republican Party, noting that it's been ineffective in governing and has been more focused on opposition rather than leadership.The speaker critiques the current crop of Republican candidates, including Victor Marx, who has been accused of exaggerating his claims of rescuing children from traffickers. The speaker questions Marx's transparency and accountability, pointing out that he has refused to answer questions from the press and has instead chosen to limit access to his campaign.In this episode, the speaker offers a candid assessment of the Republican Party's chances in the general election, highlighting the need for a candidate who can lead and govern effectively. They encourage listeners to think critically about the candidates and their qualifications, and to consider the long-term implications of their choices.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Considering Douglas County is one of the reddest counties around this is interesting and concerning for those of us worried about a Victor Marx nomination for Governor. I’m curious to hear from my unaffiliated voters about where you are going to cast your ballot this year. I did the Democratic races this year because I figured things might go this way. My fear is that if too many moderate right leaning unaffiliateds vote in the Dem primary it will lift Marx into the nomination. That is going to be a disaster if it happens. On the way to an appointment this morning I heard Ross say he was going to vote in the Dem primary as well. Chris joins me at 1 to talk about why this could be very, very bad for Republicans.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recordamos a los hermanos Marx y recorremos, con Pablo de María, el libro "Amistad, el último toque Lubitsch" de Samson Raphaelson, traducido por Pablo García Canga y editado por Intermedio y algunas películas que abordan el tema de distintas maneras.Escuchar audio

L'horizon révolutionnaire, qui paraissait si proche en Mai 68, s'est éloigné de manière considérable. Comment expliquer l'apathie généralisée qui fait obstacle aux changements émancipateurs ? Pour le dire en d'autres termes, pourquoi la révolution semble-t-elle impossible ? Est-ce une question de manque de conscience, de volonté, ou bien le système lui-même a-t-il développé des mécanismes si puissants qu'il parvient à neutraliser toute contestation ? Revenons aux années 1960 et au constat presque identique posé par le philosophe Herbert Marcuse dont les idées et hypothèses mêlant Marx et Freud semblent toujours pouvoir éclairer le présent. Penseur marxiste hétérodoxe de la Nouvelle Gauche américaine et souvent présenté comme un inspirateur des révoltes étudiantes, Marcuse a diagnostiqué dans Éros et civilisation ou encore l'Homme unidimensionnel les ressorts d'une domination qui ne s'exerce plus par la seule contrainte mais par une sorte de consentement fabriqué par les modes de vie.. Ce sont ces idées que l'on va décortiquer dans cet épisode à la lumière de deux ouvrages parus cette année : Découvrir Marcuse par Emmanuel Barot publié aux Éditions sociales et Marcuse, Face au néofascisme d'Haud Guéguen chez Amsterdam. On va voir que Marcuse se fait le théoricien d'un certain pessimisme révolutionnaire avant de déceler les possibilités d'un espoir contestataire qui prenne en compte les risques toujours forts de contre-révolution au sein du capitalisme contemporain.

This video presents a powerful contrast between the legacies of Karl Marx and D.L. Moody, using their graves in London's Highgate Cemetery as symbolic bookends of opposing worldviews. It critiques Marx's ideology—rooted in the abolition of private property, God, and the family, and grounded in revolutionary upheaval—as a philosophy that, despite claiming to liberate humanity, resulted in widespread oppression and death. In contrast, the sermon exalts Moody's life and ministry as a testament to true liberation through faith in Christ, emphasizing the enduring impact of the Gospel on individuals and society. The central message calls listeners to reflect on their own legacy, urging a life defined not by cultural or political ideologies, but by obedience to God and the transformative power of the truth found in Jesus Christ.

In 1952, at the height of Soviet power, Ludwig von Mises stood in the San Francisco Public Library and systematically dismantled Marx—not just his economics, but his philosophy, his theory of history, and his manipulation of language. This is the fifth of nine lectures, published in 2006 as Marxism Unmasked.Mises examines why Marxism went essentially unchallenged for decades—not because its arguments were strong, but because its opponents rarely engaged its philosophical foundations. He traces the intellectual lineage from Saint-Simon's totalitarian world council through Comte's positivism to Marx's dialectical materialism, showing how each system claimed to have discovered the final truth and therefore demanded the end of free inquiry. Along the way, Mises dismantles the conflation of Marxism with Freudian psychoanalysis, explains why governments have a built-in bias toward socialism, and reveals that the word "organize" entered political language as a Napoleonic term meaning to treat individuals as a builder treats stones. The essay's central insight is deceptively simple: the debate was never between planning and chaos. It was always between the plan of the dictator and the plans of free individuals—and the police exist to settle the dispute.

In a shocking turn of events, a recent plot to attack the White House was foiled by the FBI, but the way the agency handled the situation has raised more questions than answers. This episode delves into the details of the case and the FBI's decision to announce the plot on social media before the suspects were even in custody.The speaker shares their expertise on the matter, having worked closely with the FBI and the Secret Service in the past. They point out that the FBI's announcement was premature, giving the suspects a head start and potentially putting agents in danger. The speaker also highlights the FBI's history of transparency issues, citing previous instances where the agency has made similar mistakes.The discussion also touches on the topic of campaign finance laws and the recent allegations against Victor Marx, a candidate running for governor in Colorado. The speaker shares their findings on the campaign's financial disclosures, which reveal a pattern of suspicious activity and potential illegal donations.If you're interested in learning more about these topics and hearing the speaker's expert analysis, tune in to this episode to hear the full discussion and get to the bottom of these intriguing stories.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An enjoyable conversation with John Bellamy Foster on his recent book "Breaking the Bonds Fate: Epicurus and Marx." Dr. Foster discusses the strong philosophical connections between the ancient Greek philosopher and Marx's thinking which go back to Marx's dissertation.

Eine Episode des Geschichts-Podcast "Porta" von volksfreund.de: Karl Marx war nicht nur Philosoph und Revolutionär, sondern auch Journalist. Zeitgleich war ein anderer Karl, Nachname Grün, ebenfalls als Revolutionär und Medienmacher im damaligen Deutschland aktiv - vor allem in Trier, der Geburtsstadt von Karl Marx. Mehr dazu kann eine Expertin erzählen.

Engels once called dialectics “the science of the general laws of motion, both of the external world and of human thought”.It is the philosophy of motion and change. It was on the foundations of this philosophy that Marx and Engels developed their analysis of class society, of the rise and the inevitable fall of the capitalist system.But motion and change are ubiquitous, not only to human life but also to nature as a whole. Everything from the evolution of species to the formation of our solar system is governed by constant transformation. To better understand the world in which we live, we must learn to apply dialectical materialism to all spheres of life, above all to the natural world.This talk by Ben Curry focuses on the scientific philosophy of Marxism, dialectical materialism.

The Denver Post's Editorial: Help or Hindrance for Victor Marx? On this episode, the conversation centers around a recent editorial by the Denver Post that's got everyone talking. The article in question is about Victor Marx, a candidate in the GOP primary, and whether the Post's editorial was intended to help or hurt his chances. Dan dives into the details of the piece, highlighting both the positive and negative aspects of Marx's campaign. One thing's for sure - this editorial is not just a run-of-the-mill endorsement or criticism, but a complex analysis that's got everyone weighing in. The discussion touches on the Post's portrayal of Marx, including a photo that's been interpreted in different ways by Dan, Ryan, and guest Dick Wadhams. Dan argues that the photo is a deliberate attempt to humanize Marx, while Wadhams sees it as a sign of the Post's intention to hurt his campaign. The conversation also delves into the specifics of Marx's charity work and the claims made about his involvement in international aid efforts. As the primary election heats up, the stakes are high, and the speaker's analysis of the Post's editorial is a must-listen for anyone following the campaign. With the primary just two weeks away, the outcome is far from certain, and this episode offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics at play. Tune in to hear the full discussion and decide for yourself whether the Denver Post's editorial was a help or a hindrance for Victor Marx.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Denver Post's editorial on Victor Marx has sparked a heated debate, with some arguing it's a clever move to help him become the GOP nominee, while others claim it's a scathing critique that will ultimately hurt his campaign. As we dive into the details, it's clear that this is a story that's not just about politics, but also about the power of perception and the importance of authenticity. This episode of the podcast delves into the complexities of the situation, with Senator Barb Kirkmeyer sharing her thoughts on the editorial and its potential impact on Marx's campaign as one of his primary opponents. We also hear from callers who weigh in on the issue, offering their own perspectives and insights. One caller, Ashe, makes a compelling argument that the burden of proof in this case is not beyond a reasonable doubt, but rather a simple majority, and that Marx's accusers have already presented enough evidence to sway public opinion. As the conversation unfolds, we explore the nuances of the situation, including the potential consequences of Marx's actions and the implications for his campaign. Primary opponent Representative Scott Bottoms joins the discussion as well. We also touch on the idea that the Denver Post's editorial may not be as scathing as it seems, and that Marx may actually benefit from the attention. With so many different perspectives and opinions on the table, it's clear that this is a story that's far from over. If you're interested in hearing more about the Denver Post's editorial and its potential impact on Victor Marx's campaign, tune in to this episode to hear the full conversation. We'll be discussing the details of the editorial, the reactions of callers, and the implications for the upcoming election. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion that's sure to leave you with a deeper understanding of the complexities of politics and the power of perception.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can the future of an entire civilisation be calculated like the behaviour of gas molecules? In the second of two episodes on Isaac Asimov, John Helmer and Ezri Carlebach turn from his robots to his other great franchise — the Foundation saga — and the seductive idea at its heart: psychohistory, a fictional science that claims to predict the fate of galactic empires. From a Gilbert and Sullivan libretto opened at random to Apple TV's billion-dollar adaptation, this is a conversation about how one pulp idea grew into a cornerstone of science fiction and why its questions about prediction, determinism and power feel uncomfortably current. In this episode: The origins of Foundation — Asimov, his editor John W. Campbell, and the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta that inspired a galactic empire The original trilogy (Foundation, Foundation and Empire, Second Foundation), Hari Seldon, psychohistory and the Mule How Asimov was pushed by Doubleday into the prequels and sequels — and how he retrofitted Foundation into his robot universe Two adaptations compared: the 1973 BBC Radio dramatization and Apple TV's contemporary series The ideas behind the saga — Gibbon, Spengler, Toynbee, and the long-running argument over Marx and Hegel Prediction as power — from Carissa Véliz's work to prediction markets and accelerationism Asimov the man: his later fame, his legacy, and his failings Connect with The Learning Hack: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/johnhelmer X: @johnhelmer Threads: @jphelmer Bluesky: @johnhelmer.bsky.social Instagram: @tech.imaginarium Website: learninghackpodcast.com Listen and watch: All links: https://linktr.ee/learninghack Next time: Frankenstein — Mary Shelley's fever dream and the most enduring image in tech

** Come to Macro ‘n Chill, the online gathering where we listen to the podcast together and discuss what we learned and where we agree or disagree. Tuesday, June 16, 8pm ET/5pm PT. Use this link to register: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/Qm85bGIOSF2H_uNMwOmWtQEcosocialist author, Ian Angus, talks with Steve about his book Metabolic Rifts: Capitalism's Assault on the Earth System. They explore the deep, sometimes invisible ways that capitalism disrupts the planet's fundamental life cycles –– from soil depletion and artificial fertilizers to the carbon cycle driving global warming.Ian traces the concept of “metabolic rift” from Marx and Engels through a long socialist lineage, making the case that ecological critique has always been central to the Marxist tradition. (Indeed, some Marxists might argue that “eco-” is an unnecessary qualifier; “socialism” is enough!)Steve brings up the MMT basics challenging the austerity narrative that blocks ecological reconstruction. He reminds us that the state, as the currency issuer, can de-commodify the essentials of life, namely food, water, housing, and healthcare. However, as Ian bluntly states: “The problem is that it's not our government, it's their government.” Reformism and electoralism are dead ends.While listeners may disagree with some of Ian's interpretations of Soviet history, those comments do not negate the episode's compelling analysis that capitalism's DNA demands endless accumulation and profit. Combating the ecological crisis is inseparable from the struggle to overcome capitalism.Ian Angus is founder and editor of the online ecosocialist journal, Climate & Capitalism and a founding member of the Global Ecosocialist Network. Among his many books are The War Against the Commons: Dispossession and Resistance in the Making of Capitalism (Monthly Review Press, 2023), A Redder Shade of Green: Intersections of Science and Socialism (Monthly Review Press, 2017) and Facing the Anthropocene: Fossil Capitalism and the Crisis of the Earth System (Monthly Review Press, 2016). His most recent is Metabolic Rifts: Capitalism's Assault on the Earth System. (Monthly Review Press, 2026),@ecosocialism1 on X

El escritor liberal analiza el futuro de la región y desmonta los mitos totalitarios en su nueva obra, ‘Nazi-Comunismo'. Iberoamérica vive uno de sus momentos políticos más intensos y polarizados de las últimas décadas. Presidentes que generan pasiones globales, batallas ideológicas sin cuartel y países que oscilan entre el colapso y la transformación radical. Además, se suman las recientes elecciones en Colombia y en Perú, así como el fenómeno que causa el presidente argentino, Javier Milei. Esta semana, en Economía para Quedarte sin Amigos, contamos con Axel Kaiser, escritor, pensador liberal, abogado, profesor universitario y presidente de la Fundación para el Progreso de Chile, para analizar el mapa político del continente y presentar su libro Nazi-comunismo, publicado por Editorial Deusto, en el que defiende que nazismo y comunismo son dos caras de la misma moneda. Apoyándose en fuentes primarias, muchas de ellas solo disponibles en alemán, Kaiser argumenta que el nazismo y el marxismo-leninismo comparten cinco elementos esenciales. "La gente no va a poder creer cómo la identidad ideológica criminal del marxismo es la misma que tiene el nazismo", señala Kaiser, que también recuerda que los propios Mises y Hayek ya advirtieron de ello. Que el mismo Mussolini llevara una medalla de Karl Marx en el bolsillo durante años, o que Hitler tomara ideas directamente de Marx para incorporarlas a su matriz ideológica, son datos que el libro documenta con precisión y que explican por qué la descalificación fácil de "facho" sigue siendo una herramienta para cerrar debates.Música Esta semana, la protagonista de nuestra selección musical es el grupo hispano-argentino Los Rodríguez. Y estos son los temas que hemos escuchado: "Sin Documentos" "Para No Olvidar" "Mucho Mejor" "Dulce Condena"

This week's episode is a doozy, folks! We're diving into the world of politics, from the Colorado governor's race to the latest on the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis. But it's not all serious business - we're also talking about a documentary that's got everyone talking, and a lawsuit that's got some people's blood boiling.This episode is a wild ride, covering everything from the latest in the Colorado governor's race, where Victor Marx is taking on Barb Kirkmeyer in a heated campaign. We're also discussing the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis, where over 400,000 unaccompanied minors were allowed into the country, many of whom are still missing. And if that's not enough, we're also talking about a lawsuit filed in Denver to ban circumcisions statewide, comparing it to female genital mutilation.But what really sets this episode apart is the conversation with John Fabricatory, a former senior advisor to Robert F. Kennedy Junior, who's been working to track down the whereabouts of those missing children. His story is a sobering reminder of the human cost of the border crisis, and the importance of holding our leaders accountable.So if you're ready to get informed, get fired up, and get ready to take action, tune in to this episode and hear the whole story for yourself.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if the worldview functioning as an opiate today is not religion, but its absence? In this field notes episode of Inquiry, Kelly Chase examines atheism not as a private belief or philosophical conclusion, but as a very recent mass cultural formation that now functions as the default worldview of educated Western society. Beginning with Marx's famous claim that religion is the opiate of the masses, she asks whether modern secular materialism may now be serving a similar sedating function by making vast areas of human experience feel intellectually off-limits. From there, the episode turns toward elite metaphysics. The public is often told that materialism is the rational, mature, evidence-based position, yet many of the people and institutions shaping the future take seriously spirituality, consciousness, simulation theory, mysticism, ritual, and esoteric frameworks. The question is not whether any single belief system is true, but whether citizens trained to dismiss the symbolic and metaphysical have been given a map that cannot represent the terrain power is actually navigating. Finally, the episode considers the empirical and philosophical pressure points inside strict materialism: the hard problem of consciousness, near-death experience research, the PEAR Lab at Princeton, Dean Radin's work at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and anomalous findings that are usually met not with rigorous refutation but with studied disregard. These findings are not treated as proof of any particular metaphysics. They are treated as evidence that the question remains open, and that a genuine skeptic should apply suspicion not only to extraordinary claims, but to the dominant worldview that decides in advance which claims are allowed to count. Topics explored: Marx and religion | opiate of the masses | atheism as ideology | secularization | materialism | consciousness | the hard problem | non-material reality | elite belief | WEF and spirituality | Silicon Valley mysticism | simulation theory | René Girard | Peter Thiel | Elon Musk | Bohemian Grove | ritual and power | Skull and Bones | esotericism | operative metaphysics | near-death experiences | PEAR Lab | Dean Radin | anomalous cognition | mind-matter interaction | dogma and skepticism | worldview enforcement | social sanction | epistemic humility | the metaphysics of power Inquiry with Kelly Chase is brought to you by SpectreVision Radio.Produced in partnership with Voltage.fm.  Referenced In This Episode A Contribution to the Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right — Karl Marx (1843/44) The Death of Christian Britain: Understanding Secularisation 1800–2000 — Callum G.

Um dos mais importantes economistas brasileiros. Marxista, que teve uma carreira brilhante na academia, como professor da USP e da PUC em São Paulo. Houve um período em que teve que ficar afastado, por conta da ditadura militar no Brasil. Ele sempre teve uma militância política junto com a carreira acadêmica, e também como intelectual. Uma figura muito inquieta, no sentido de que ele não se acomodava a um determinado tema. Este foi Paul Singer, personagem do documentário que faz parte de uma série de documentários de não ficção realizados pelo diretor Ugo Giorgetti. Este terceiro episódio sobre a série teve a colaboração por meio de entrevistas com o ex-aluno de Singer, Marcos Barreto, a jornalista e pesquisadora Paula Quental, autora de uma dissertação de mestrado sobre a trajetória política e intelectual de Singer, e Marcelo Justo, diretor executivo do Instituto Paul Singer.  Roteiro Liniane Brum: Paul Singer, uma utopia militante: esse episódio é o terceiro de uma série sobre os documentários e as peças de não ficção do diretor de cinema Ugo Giorgetti.  Meu nome é Liniane Brum, sou doutora em teoria e crítica literária pela Unicamp e realizei a pesquisa de pós-doutorado “Contra o apagamento – o cinema de não ficção de Ugo Giorgetti” também na Unicamp, no Labjor, com o apoio da Fapesp. [Trilha musical] Liniane: A partir do ano de 2020, Ugo Giorgetti assina três documentários biográficos. São produções realizadas sob encomenda, que têm em comum a apresentação de homens que se destacaram em suas áreas de atuação e como pessoas também. São filmes que não partem de uma inquietação artística ou de uma necessidade intelectual. Ainda assim, são autorais.  Estou falando dos filmes Paul Singer, uma utopia militante, produção de 2021, A invenção de Conrado Wessel, de 2024, e Alberto Dines – vínculos de liberdade, que saiu em 2026. Neste episódio vamos tratar de Paul Singer, uma utopia militante. Eu conversei com três pessoas sobre esse documentário. O economista, produtor do filme e ex-aluno de Singer, Marcos Barreto, que me ajudou a entender os bastidores da produção. A jornalista e pesquisadora Paula Quental, autora de uma dissertação de mestrado sobre a trajetória política e intelectual de Singer, e Marcelo Justo, diretor executivo do Instituto Paul Singer. [Vinheta Oxigênio] Liniane: Antes de mais nada, pedi a eles que apresentassem quem foi Paul Singer.   Paula Quental: Ele era de uma família judia, assimilada, como se diz, não era religiosa. Ele vinha da Áustria, a mãe percebeu para onde caminhava a coisa do nazismo. Ele conta, inclusive tá na dissertação, que ele descobriu que era judeu, aos seis anos de idade, quando a Áustria foi anexada por Hitler. Aí, chegaram os amiguinhos dele do colégio, com aquelas bandeirinhas nazistas, com a suástica, e ele queria sair junto (com os meninos) com aquela bandeirinha. Aí, a mãe dele vira para ele e diz: “mas, Paul, você é judeu”. Marcos Barreto: É um dos mais importantes economistas brasileiros, marxista e veio com sete anos fugindo do nazismo, com a mãe, o pai já havia falecido, ele veio com a mãe para São Paulo, e ele faz um curso técnico primeiro, ele começa a trabalhar como metalúrgico, só depois ele vai fazer faculdade. E vai fazer faculdade por conta de uma militância política dele, porque o sindicato, o movimento, achava, o mesmo movimento operário, que eles deveriam se qualificar as lideranças, e sugerem que ele vai fazer economia, e ele faz economia, ele se forma já com quase 30 anos, e ele depois tem uma carreira brilhante na academia, professor da USP, foi professor da PUC em São Paulo também, no período que teve que ficar afastado por conta da ditadura militar no Brasil. Ele sempre teve uma militância política junto com a carreira acadêmica, e também como intelectual, uma figura muito inquieta, no sentido de que ele não se acomodava a um determinado tema. Paula Quental: Quando ele entrou na USP, ele já tinha lido o Capital, Trotsky, Lenin, Rosa Luxemburgo, que é muito da tradição dele, ele se considerava um luxemburguista. Então, é uma história de alguém que foi mergulhando nos clássicos e foi desenvolvendo um trabalho muito original, porque ele acabou indo para uma vertente, digamos, herética do marxismo, não convencional, heterodoxa, porque ele criticava, por exemplo, a União Soviética, ele criticava o centralismo da economia, ele defendia que deveria vir da base, da economia solidária, das cooperativas. Então, ele era um crítico da Revolução de 17 de outubro, da Revolução Bolchevique. Marcos Barreto: Depois, já mais nos últimos 20 anos da vida dele, ele se dedica a um tema muito importante, que é a economia solidária, então ali ele encontra talvez o assunto dos quais ele estudou, que mais ele pôde misturar uma militância política com um saber acadêmico, e colocou em prática, ele foi secretário de economia solidária no governo Lula e Dilma, até o impeachment da Dilma, praticamente ele ficou em Brasília coordenando essa Secretaria.  Liniane: Esta apresentação foi feita pela Paula e pelo Marcos. E por aí a gente já consegue ver uma trajetória bem particular, que mistura prática militante e teoria, o que já o difere de muitos intelectuais. Faltou o destaque que o Marcelo Justo fez do nosso protagonista, que trago agora. Marcelo Justo: Tem um marco na vida do Singer, tanto pessoal quanto como militante, que é trabalhar em grupo. Ele se destaca como intelectual e parece que o intelectual é uma figura sozinha, isolada, mas ele só tem essa força que ele tem pela capacidade de estar em grupo e de se conectar o Singer é o que a gente chama mais contemporaneamente de um articulador de redes, ele está sempre mantendo redes de amigos e de militantes juntos, que caminham juntos. Liniane: Marcos, como surge a ideia de um filme sobre ele, ou seja, quem fala: “olha, agora tem que ser feito um documentário sobre o Paul Singer”. Marcos Barreto: Quando ele falece, um grupo de amigos, de pessoas que gostavam muito do professor, dizem, bom, a gente precisa fazer alguma coisa pra contar essa história dele, precisamos registrar isso de alguma forma, fazemos um livro, fazemos o que? Não, vamos fazer um filme e aí a gente faz então uma campanha de crowdfunding, pra conseguir o recurso pra fazer o filme. O primeiro passo foi esse: nós não tínhamos diretor, nós não sabíamos exatamente que filme seria, mas a gente resolve fazer algo que tem muito a ver com a economia solidária, uma grande vaquinha, em todos os 27 estados do Brasil, no Distrito Federal, há pessoas que contribuíram pra que o filme fosse feito. E aí ficamos, então, pensando que diretor pode fazer esse filme, ou diretora? Quebramos a cabeça até que eu sugeri que fosse o Ugo Giorgetti.  Liniane: Por que Ugo Giorgetti?  Marcos Barreto: Porque, entre várias coisas, o Paul Singer escolheu a cidade de São Paulo, quer dizer, ele veio criança, ele não escolheu propriamente, foi a mãe dele que veio, porque já haviam familiares em São Paulo. Mas ele acaba vindo pra São Paulo e adota a cidade como a cidade dele. Ele era um apaixonado por São Paulo, falava isso várias vezes, ele voltava às vezes pra Europa, ia fazer palestra, dizendo que não tem nada como São Paulo.  Liniane: Assistindo o documentário, a gente percebe que Ugo Giorgetti traduz o Singer múltiplo. Os entrevistados comentam o olhar do diretor sobre suas conexões com figuras importantes da política, do campo da educação e mesmo e seu papel na difusão de O Capital, de Marx no Brasil. Foi ele quem primeiro traduziu o livro para o português.  Paula Quental: Teve uma passagem no documentário do Ugo Giorgetti, em que ele entrevista o Paul Singer, porque ele fez ainda várias entrevistas com o Paul Singer, em que o Singer lembra da época que ele dividiu o secretariado da Erundina com Paulo Freire. E ele fala que aprendeu muito com o Freire, que se sente extremamente influenciado pelo Freire. E isso até me estimulou a escrever uma sessão na minha dissertação, chamada Dois Paulos, em que eu analiso justamente o aspecto pedagógico da obra do Paul Singer, que ele próprio se coloca como muito influenciado pelo Freire. Marcos Barreto: Com essa amplitude que tem a vida do professor, as pessoas podiam conhecer um lado, mas pouca gente conhecia o todo, e o filme permite esse registro. E do ponto de vista acadêmico, é um registro interessante também, mais uma vez, sem ser algo cansativo, extenuante, chato, ou mais maçante, vamos dizer assim, porque ele está ali, o registro da vida intelectual, de uma forma leve, de uma forma que você compreende e fala nossa, ele fez tudo isso, nossa, foi ele então que traduziu o Capital.  Liniane: No final dos anos 1950, professores da Faculdade de Filosofia, Letras e Ciências Humanas da USP, dentre os quais José Arthur Gianotti, Fernando Henrique Cardoso e Ruth Cardoso, organizaram um grupo para fazer a leitura de O Capital. Paul Singer integra esse grupo com a missão de traduzir o livro diretamente do alemão. Não custa lembrar que se trata de uma obra canônica no campo das ciências humanas. E que naquele momento Paul Singer ainda não era o economista, intelectual destacado e homem público da alta burocracia governamental. Aqui, as falas de Marcelo, Marcos e depois a Paula. Marcelo Justo: Isso é um marco né? é um marco, acho que para o Singer, é um marco na esquerda brasileira também, porque é um primeiro momento falando pelos relatos deles, que vão se debruçar sobre a obra do Marx de uma forma sistemática, durante muitos anos, – que é interrompido com o golpe de 64, mas começa, se eu não me engano, em 58, 59 e aí vão para outros autores, não só Karl Marx, que aí vão pegar o Singer como um leitor, desde criança, do alemão. Então ele integra o grupo como quem vai ler, trazer a versão original do alemão, mas é que eles vão comparando também a tradução. Então tem a leitura em alemão, tem a leitura em francês, a leitura do que existia em português. Isso depois vai servir também como base para o Singer depois fazer a tradução, a primeira tradução original em alemão do Capital, aí já nos anos 80. A partir desse grupo sai a tese de doutorado do Fernando Henrique Cardoso, então acho que tem todos esses marcos. O professor Roberto Schwarz até hoje também se refere a esse momento, o professor Michael Löwy, que é conselheiro do nosso instituto, que foi muito amigo do Singer, também se refere até hoje como um marco na vida dele, esse momento de leitura do Capital. Marcos Barreto: E depois tem um segundo momento, que é muito rico também, quando ele é convidado por um grupo de jovens que diz assim: “poxa, a gente queria fazer uma leitura do Capital”. E aí veio a ideia de fazer uma leitura no Teatro de Arena. Então já pensou o que era isso? Você reunia no Teatro de Arena, já na ditadura militar – aí nós estamos falando de um Brasil já fechado do ponto de vista político – e esse grupo se reunia sábado de manhã para fazer a leitura do Capital com a coordenação do professor Paul Singer. Então isso é um marco também, e desta leitura ele também aproveitou, como bom acadêmico, e fez um livro sobre essa experiência. Paula Quental: Eu ouvi do Lincoln Seco, professor de História da USP, que ouviu do Florestan Fernandes, que ele é a pessoa que mais conheceu O Capital no Brasil. Ele editou uma edição da Abril Cultural do Capital, uma edição famosa do início dos anos 1980, que a editora Ubu agora reeditou. E ele lia no original, ele mergulhou, e desde uma externa idade. Liniane: Eu selecionei um trecho do documentário em que o próprio Paul  Singer fala sobre Marx. Ele integra o segmento intitulado por Ugo Giorgetti “Um autodidata na USP”. Ouve só: [Trecho do documentário] Paul Singer: Marx, em primeiro lugar, deu uma visão do capitalismo que ninguém havia dado antes, e que agora se mostra inteiramente verdadeira. Marx está sendo ressuscitado por não marxistas, exatamente como coincide, eu diria, de uma forma ultra surpreendente com este capitalismo extremamente em crises, crises que se repetem etc. porque ele entendeu, uma das coisas que tem Marx, a contribuição dele, é só dele, não é de outros, é que os economistas clássicos, tipo Ricardo, Adam Smith e tantos outros, que não eram reacionários, não, eles não eram de direita, mas eles jamais lembrariam em analisar a economia através de lutas de classes, isso é Marx.  [Efeito Sonoro] (Voz de Paul Singer bem baixinha) [Silêncio prolongado] [Trilha incidental] Liniane: Marcelo, o Instituto Paul Singer e o documentário nascem praticamente ao mesmo tempo e se dedicam à difusão do legado do professor. Em que medida essa coincidência influencia o trabalho da entidade? Marcelo Justo: O Instituto, ele começa em 2021, a organização dele. No final do ano é que ele se formaliza com o CNPJ, e em 2022 é lançado, tornado público o Instituto. Ele é uma iniciativa dos familiares do Paul Singer, basicamente eu e a Helena Singer, que é a minha esposa, filha dele. É uma associação sem fins lucrativos que tem como missão preservar e reinventar esse legado. Um legado que tem esse histórico de uma luta pela democracia, pela solidariedade, a luta contra todas as formas de injustiça e desigualdade. Marcelo Justo: O nosso principal desafio é a difusão, é a divulgação das ideias e obras do Singer. Então, um documentário como esse é muito importante, ajuda muito nisso em 50, 40 e poucos minutos, assim, você tem a trajetória inteira dele, da história de vida, as principais ideias e algumas das polêmicas enfrentadas na trajetória, na vida dele. Então, para a gente, é um material muito importante, muito rico para divulgar.  Liniane: É fato: documentário e Instituto convergem em objetivo e se fortalecem mutuamente. Porém, Marcos Barreto me explicou que o filme foi feito a partir de entrevistas realizadas em momentos diferentes. Na primeira, de 2015, Paul Singer é entrevistado pelo grupo que viria a produzir o documentário. A segunda é feita por Giorgetti, em 2018, antes do falecimento do professor. Já o Instituto, como Marcelo me contou, e formalizado em 2022. Marcos Barreto: O professor, no final da vida, já nos últimos anos, tinha alguns fatores de memória, algumas coisas que estavam começando a falhar. E a gente identificou isso, e a família, e a gente falou, bom, vamos gravar, vamos colocar o Paul Singer falando sobre a vida dele, sobre coisas que ele fez na vida que são marcantes, sobre passagens importantes, vamos quase que fazer uma entrevista com ele. E a gente fez duas sessões grandes com o professor, foi o Fernando Kleyman quem organizou isso, em Brasília. E ele então, por duas sessões de quase três, quatro horas, falou um monte, o que foi ótimo, porque quando a gente conseguiu resolver o dinheiro para fazer o filme, escolher o Ugo, etc, o professor havia já avançado na doença, já tinha dificuldade, o Ugo chegou a conversar com ele ainda em vida, o filme é lançado depois que o professor já faleceu. Liniane: O documentário foi divulgado na imprensa como uma produção que praticou a Economia Solidária. O que significaria essa afirmação, Marcelo? Marcelo Justo: Então, na economia solidária, democracia e autogestão são sinônimos, praticamente, nos escritos dele. Então, o que é isso? As pessoas se organizarem para produzir juntos, sem patrão e sem empregado. Todo mundo é cooperado.  Não é à toa que o documentário tem o nome da utopia militante, que esse é o título do livro dele, que ele se coloca a isso, né? A questão da utopia como uma militância. A militância dele é por essa utopia, que é uma utopia de construir um socialismo que seja democrático, que não seja a experiência do chamado socialismo real, que é uma ditadura de esquerda.  Liniane: Marcos também comentou sobre o termo utopia que está no título do documentário. E destacou, mais uma vez, a multiplicidade de papeis de Singer nos vários espaços em que atuou. Marcos Barreto: Esse título é tão forte e também resume tanto do que é o professor, porque justamente reúne essas duas facetas, que é uma pessoa que é um intelectual brilhante, professor titular da USP, com um militante que nunca deixou de ser militante. Ele foi estudar economia porque ele era um militante, e ele termina a vida como alguém que está pensando a economia solidária, que é algo prático, então ele não tava sendo um teórico da economia solidária, só que aí no meio desse percurso, já nessa última década da vida, nas últimas duas décadas, ele escreve esse livro, que é uma utopia militante, então ele assume ali o quê? Que ao mesmo tempo que ele está defendendo algo que é utópico, que é um desejo do que ele gostaria de ver acontecer, ele assume que aquilo só vai acontecer se tiver militância, ou seja, talvez aí, diferente do socialismo científico, que parte da ideia de que há uma evolução natural da história que vai ligar o socialismo, e que é algo que aliás o Singer não acreditava. Então o título, na verdade, quem escolheu foi o professor Paulo Singer, para o livro, e a gente quando viu, quando foi pensar no título do filme, a gente falou, putz, difícil achar um nome melhor do que Utopia Militante. Liniane: O documentário estreou no Festival Internacional É Tudo Verdade, em 2021, em um momento em que a letalidade do coronavírus alcançava um dos seus picos. Ele foi exibido de modo on-line, mediante a distribuição de duas mil senhas, que se esgotaram em poucos minutos. [Efeito sonoro] Liniane: “A trajetória política e intelectual de Paul Singer: da crítica marxista à Economia Solidária” é o título da dissertação de mestrado defendida por Paula Quental no Instituto de Estudos Brasileiros, o IEB, da USP, a Universidade de São Paulo, em 2024.  Marcelo Justo, que é doutor em geografia pela mesma universidade, organizou o livro “Urbanização e Desenvolvimento”, uma coletânea de textos de Paul Singer. O volume foi editado pela Autêntica em parceria com a Fundação Perseu Abramo.  Marcos Barreto é hoje Diretor Geral do Instituto Equipe Educação, Cultura e Cidadania e Vice-Diretor Geral da Fundação Escola de Sociologia e Política de São Paulo (FESPSP), e segue engajado com a divulgação do legado de Singer.  [Vinheta de encerramento Oxigênio] Esse trabalho de divulgação sobre a obra de não ficção do cineasta Ugo Giorgetti é realizado no âmbito do Programa Mídia Ciência, do Labjor, com supervisão da Simone Pallone.  As entrevistas, o roteiro e a narração desse episódio foram feitos por mim, Liniane Brum. A revisão do roteiro é da Simone Pallone. A edição é do Guilherme Lopes, estagiário da Coordenadoria de Centros e Núcleos Interdisciplinares da Unicamp, a Cocen. A vinheta do Oxigênio é do Elias Mendez.  As trilhas usadas no podcast são de  Blue Dot Sessions, tiradas do Free Music Archive. A gente vai deixar a ficha técnica do filme na descrição do episódio.  As reportagens referentes à divulgação da obra de não ficção de Ugo Giorgetti foram publicadas no dossiê “Ugo Giorgetti” da Revista ComCiência.  Este episódio conta com o suporte da Diretoria Executiva de Apoio e Permanência, da Unicamp e da Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo, a FAPESP, por meio de bolsas, e também da Secretaria Executiva de Comunicação da Unicamp.

LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE HEREAlright, welcome back to Žižek & So On. This week continues our new series on the systematic aspects of Žižek's thought, & we're bringing you another PATREON SHORT SESSION.This episode is a special one because we managed to get a copy of Žižek's Masters Thesis from the early 1970's which became his second book (Znak, označitelj, pismo) published in 1976.So once again we begin at the beginning…again, looking at repetition in Zizek's oeuvre with his initial turn to French structuralism with the help of Mladen Dolar. We're talking Žizek's thesis defence where he had to outline his relationship to Marx, why the split precedes the whole, why animals can't wear masks, and universal signifiers today.The European Graduate School are running a Leading Thinkers Course on Slavoj Žižek and I know a lot of our listeners are attending the course which is exciting and a big thanks to all of you who have been reaching out to us over the last few weeks of the course!The course runs for ten weeks or so with Frank Ruda, Mladen Dolar, Adrian Johnston, Robert Pfaller, Zahi Zalloua, Dany Nobus, Alenka Zupančič, Berta Perez, and at the end Žižek…on…himself….so we're going to be doing these episodes alongside the course.Up next is Berta M Perez and her reading of Žiżek and the Dialectical Gaze!Short sessions, variable length sessions, however you wanna put it, in these episodes we'll wrap them up because of something that is said, rather than the tyranny of the clock.See you in Paris,Ž&…

This episode is a wild ride, folks, as our host dives into two explosive topics that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about the world around you. From a shocking indictment against a prominent civil rights organization to a disturbing trend in the way we consume and share news, this episode is not for the faint of heart.The Southern Poverty Law Center, a name you've probably heard before, is at the center of a federal grand jury indictment for allegedly manufacturing hate and funneling donor money to the very hate groups they claim to be fighting. But that's not all - our host also tackles the issue of how we consume and share news, highlighting the dangers of confirmation bias and the importance of fact-checking in today's digital age.

Episode 392 of RevolutionZ  uncovers and visits a half-century-old file on my computer to address a surprisingly urgent question: are we building new revolutionary ideas, or just renting space in inherited ones. I recently rediscovered the text of my 1974 book What Is To Be Undone? written when the arguments between Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, anarchism, and other currents were not academic history but living fuel for organizing. Reading my own early investigations as the Sixties slipped into the Seventies feels like opening a time capsule and realizing the contents still impact what people believe is possible. On the same day, a friend pointed me toward Gabriel Rockhill's Who Paid The Piper Of Western Marxism? and the storms around his claim that contemporary revolutionary theory drifted into a “respectable” left alignment with capitalism and imperialism. I share a long excerpt from Rockhill laying out his case: a purge of dialectical and historical materialism, class analysis pushed aside by culturalism, and a call to rebuild a disciplined, organized left that can actually win. We agree on the need to rejuvenate anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist struggle, but we very seriously diverge on whether the path forward is a return to classical Marxism-Leninism and democratic centralism or a break from their limits. From there, I grapple with a personal and political test: was my younger and then on-going self part of the problem Rockhill describes, or was I trying to learn from past failures to strengthen future movements. Along the way I revisit blurbs from Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, and Herb Gintis, reflect on the dangers of sectarian dismissal, and end with Bob Dylan's “My Back Pages” as a reminder that clarity sometimes comes from letting go of certainty. This episode begins another sequence of episodes whose number of entries depends on what seems the case. Me then and now: a deluded, deceived, sell out CIA symp rejector of Marxism Leninism, or me then and now a sincere whipper snapper  trying to overcome past ideological problems on the way to a better society? Is our ideological problem anti anti imperialism, as Rockhill asserts, or is it that  in going forward from the Sixties we actually retained too much from dead men's minds? This episode is a scene setting opening shot on the way to aggressively and hopefully definitively determining which way we need to orient our thinking Back to classical Marxism Leninism, or forward to a participatory self managing future.Support the show

New estimates of Global Patterns in Neonatal, Child, and Adolescent Mortality have been published - and while there has been a huge improvement, those gains are in danger - and we're seeing worrying trends.   Kate Strong, a Scientist at the World Health Organization and Lucia Hug, a specialist in statistics and monitoring for UNICEF, join us to explain the data - and why they are worried about our ability to measure this in the future.   Helen Sharman is the first British Astronaut to make it to space - this week she was at the Royal College of GPs giving the General Medical Council's annual Marx lecture. She joins us to discuss how research in space might impact healthcare on Earth, and what the NHS can learn from cosmonaut teamwork.    Finally, The government and doctors in England are not getting on well - we've had a series of strikes from the resident doctors, GPs are in dispute about the imposition of a new contract, and now consultants are being polled on industrial action.  BMA Consultants Committee co-chairs Shanu Dutta and Helen Neary explain why.   Reading list   Neonatal, Child, and Adolescent Mortality Global, regional, and national levels and trends in under 5, infant, and neonatal mortality during 1990-2024 with scenario based projections to 2030 Global, regional, and national levels and trends in older child, adolescent, and youth (5-24 years) all cause mortality from 1990 to 2024: modelling study Systematic estimates of global causes of neonatal and under 5 mortality in 2000-24: secondary data analysis using bayesian multinomial logistic regression Estimates of global causes of death for children and adolescents aged 5-19 in 2000-24: secondary data analysis using bayesian multinomial logistic regression   Full interview on YouTube: Why NHS Senior Doctors in England Are Considering Strike Action

Michael's unique approach to analyzing the debate highlights the importance of substance over style, and the need for leaders to be held accountable for their words and actions. With a keen eye for detail, he identifies the strengths and weaknesses of each candidate, providing a clear and unbiased assessment of their performance. One of the key takeaways from this episode is the importance of specificity in policy-making. Michael highlights how Marx's lack of concrete answers to questions about affordability and immigration enforcement makes him seem more like a politician than a leader. In contrast, Kirkmeyer's ability to provide specific solutions and her experience as a county commissioner make her a strong contender. Bottoms, meanwhile, struggles to connect the dots between his ideology and actual governing actions. If you're tired of empty promises and want to see real leadership in action, tune in to this episode to hear the speaker's expert analysis of the gubernatorial debate. With a healthy dose of humor and a critical eye, Michael breaks down the candidates' answers and provides a clear assessment of who's ready to lead.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"For our demands most moderate are, We only want the earth." - James Connolly, 1907James Connolly is often portrayed as simply an Irish nationalist. This couldn't be further from the truth. The leader of the Easter rising, he was a revolutionary Marxist. His study of Marx and Engels guided his fight for an Irish socialist republic, independently bringing him to similar conclusions as Lenin and the Bolsheviks. From the question of national liberation, to international socialism, and the struggle for working class unity, Connolly's legacy offers invaluable lessons for revolutionaries today.In this presentation, Ben Curry (from the International Secretariat of the Revolutionary Communist International) explains the impact of Connolly's life and ideas. Connolly's unfinished work - for an Irish socialist republic, and a socialist world - is up to us to complete. Armed with his ideas, as well as those of Marx, Engels, Lenin and Trotsky, the working class will win.This presentation was recorded live in Toronto on May 19, 2026.Further reading:James Connolly and the Easter RisingIreland: Republicanism and Revolution Buy the book!Join the Revolutionary Communist Party

Throughout this series we have pulled apart science by science to show how the Aryan hypothesis works. We have now reached the continent of the unconscious, with it, neurology, psychiatry and psychology etc. We are getting ready to storm the castle that is Carl Gustav Jung.We start with the "invention of the self" during the Sturm & Drang, Goethe‘s urtype and degeneration theory, introduce Schelling as the first irrationalist continue with the forbidden secrets Mesmer revealed about the ancien régime and the role he played in the french revolution.We also present and I read in full a forgotten fragment of Hölderlin, Marx' favorite poet and best friend of Hegel, who it would seem, before the Nazis deemed it a fake, first coined the term Communism, 236 years ago at a small chapel on a romantic hill at the feet of the alps.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 160 At the heart of the Communist project is "seizing the means of production." But what does this really mean? Is it just taking control of factories and farms and "expropriating the expropriators," as Marx had it, or is there something deeper? In this fascinating episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay takes a unique look at the concept of seizing the means of production in terms of taking control of the production of humanity itself within different totalitarian schema. For the Communists, it's economic; for the Fascists, it's nationalist; and for the Nazis, it's racial production they're seizing, all with the purpose of remaking man into what he was always supposed to be. Join him for this fascinating look into the real evils of totalitarianism in a way few have ever seen them. Latest from New Discourses Press!

Listeners share their thoughts on the most divisive Marx film. Is it the last hurrah or the last straw? We sift through comments on everything from Tootsie-Frootsie to the excised “Dr. Hackenbush” song, while confronting the water carnival sequence that turns watching the movie into a hostage situation. We also take on the film's most uncomfortable sequence, doing our best to put it in perspective... Along the way, there are Beatles comparisons, Lindy Hop history, and a listener who thankfully wasn't one of Chico's children. And as always, enough nitpicking to put any fan under observation at the Standish Sanitarium.

They unpack.Finally, they talk lingvo itself by way of a recent article in Harpers by Katie Thornton about the unlikely resurgence of interest in the artificial language Esperanto.

In this episode of The Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Joe Boot and Dr. Michael Thiessen think Christianly about Marxism — not as a political or economic theory, but as a religious worldview offering a counterfeit vision of salvation, history, and liberation. Joe traces Marx's roots in Hegel and Rousseau, unpacks dialectical materialism and conflict theory, and shows why Marxism is a fundamentally destructive project. Drawing on Marx's own writings and Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, Joe and Michael expose how Marxism parodies the Christian story — borrowing categories like alienation, reformation, justice, and freedom while emptying them of objective content. The result is a messianic vision driven by envy and resentment, with ordinary people serving as the cannon fodder of an undefined utopia. Against this counterfeit, Joe sets the true paradigm of liberation: the Exodus. From Passover blood to Sinai law, the biblical story is recapitulated in Christ — the greater Moses, the greater Joshua, the true Passover Lamb — who delivers his people not into lawless utopia but into a kingdom of righteousness, holiness, and dominion. Marxism offers a savior who covets your stuff. Christianity proclaims the Good Shepherd who laid down his life for the sheep.
