Classical Marxism Beacon or Barrier

Episode 400 of RevolutionZ assesses Classical Marxism are a conceptual framework for guiding political activism. A revolutionary theory can feel powerful precisely because it is big, elegant, and confident. The problem is, big and elegant or not, what does the theory help with or hinder when you try to use it on Monday morning. This episode takes a hard look at classical Marxism as a practical guide for organizers, and lays out why its standard “core toolbox” often misses, inadequately understands, or even denies many things that actually drive people: racism, sexism, authority, fear, dignity, identity, the everyday pressures that shape consciousness and behavior, and even the dynamics of class relations and class struggle. The episode walks through nine specific weaknesses that many Sixties New Leftists felt as the Seventies unfoded, from abstractions that work better on decades than on daily movement decisions, to thin accounts of organizational dynamics, bureaucracy, violence, and severe discipline. We  dig into how classical dialectics over-focuses on one dominant contradiction and trains attention away from smaller-scale relations and the stubborn persistence of stability. If you've ever watched a movement mechanically repeat worn out arguments, rhetorically polarize, and turn theory into a loyalty test, we seek the conceptual foundations that make or at the least permit that to happen. The episode then turns to human nature and psychology and argues that you can't build effective revolutionary strategy without a usable theory of consciousness formation, motivation, and subjectivity. Claims that “material interest automatically produces revolutionary consciousness” is a dangerous over-simplified shortcut that misses why that often doesn't happen much less why sometimes the reverse occurs so that, for example, workers become reactionary or blind to attacks on their own interests. We discuss as well modern reactionary politics, confirmation bias, and the question that won't go away: What kind of updated left political theory can be both complex enough to be true and clear and concise enough to be usable by real people in real world time conflicted and crisis-moved situations? Please, if you disagree with what this episode--and the past few--present, please leave a critical comment, or write a rebuttal, or at least send me an email. Am I mired in a flawed past, or is advocacy of Marxism Leninism mired in a flawed past? For that matter, what would you put in a modern organizing toolbox that classical Marxist's leave out of theirs? Would your inclusions prevent or propel familiar Leninist and Bolshevik tendencies? Support the show

A história dos presidentes da Igreja Adventista não é assunto de organograma: é teologia visível. Esta aula abre o Módulo 5 de A Ordem e monta o método com que vamos atravessar 162 anos de presidências. Toda estrutura eclesiástica encarna uma doutrina de Deus. Um governo que concentra autoridade numa pessoa diz uma coisa sobre como Deus lidera; um governo que a distribui por um corpo diz outra. Nesta abertura eu apresento o aparato completo do módulo: nove pensadores (de Aristóteles a Voegelin) e o que cada um enxerga que os outros não enxergam; os dois modelos neotestamentários de liderança, o petrino e o paulino; a leitura APEST de Efésios 4 e a tese central desta série — o cargo executivo seleciona estruturalmente para pastor e mestre, e filtra para fora o profeta e o apóstolo, com patologias previsíveis; a distinção entre micromanagement paternalista e macromanagement equipador; e as quatro lentes (governo, eclesiologia, escatologia, missiologia) que vão governar os dezoito episódios biográficos. Também declaro o padrão de fontes do módulo: citação com obra, data e página; e o compromisso de dizer quando não consegui verificar. Numa denominação que argumenta por citação, verificar é ato de fidelidade. E adianto cinco padrões que a pesquisa revelou e que eu não esperava encontrar — inclusive o custo físico da liderança, que nenhuma tipologia registra. FONTES E REFERÊNCIAS CITADAS - WHITE, James.

This edition of The Neil Haley Show opens with a Total Celebrity conversation with actor Philip Winchester about bringing his Chicago Justice character, prosecutor Peter Stone, over to Law & Order: SVU. Winchester explained that Dick Wolf revived the character after Justice ended, dropping Stone into New York around a right-to-die case and the death of his father, and pulling him in through Sam Waterston's Jack McCoy. Where Justice kept Stone in the courtroom, SVU digs into the man himself, his brokenness, family secrets, and the pressure of joining a team that does not want him there. Winchester described Stone as someone who sees the law in black and white after years in homicide, only to discover that the SVU world is anything but, as victims forget, are coerced, or are impaired, and Olivia Benson begrudgingly takes him under her wing. He credited the writing staff, including Michael Chernuchin and others with legal backgrounds, for the impassioned closing arguments and for teaching him a subject entirely new to him, and he pointed to the show's long run as proof that audiences respond to flawed people who still find the strength to do right. His arc airs on SVU at 9 p.m. Eastern, and he can be found by searching his name online.Neil then welcomed recurring host Dr. Robert E. Marx, the internationally recognized oral and maxillofacial surgeon and author, for two segments on The Dr. Robert E. Marx Show. In the first, Marx offered an educational take on the military's plan to test troops' testosterone levels and offer replacement therapy to those who test low, arguing the program is medically supervised, dose-controlled, and a matter of choice, and calling much of the political criticism uninformed. He distinguished replacement therapy from the super-physiologic doses that gave steroids their bad name, walked through the balance of testosterone and estrogen in both sexes, and tied a generational decline in men's testosterone to dyes and additives in the food and drug supply, praising the current direction on those issues. In a lighter second segment, Marx reviewed the FIFA World Cup, calling Spain a deserving champion over Argentina, praising the tournament as a security and economic success for the United States, and playfully knocking soccer's tendency toward theatrical flopping, suggesting the sport adopt hockey's embellishment penalty. He noted the growth potential for the game as NIL money reaches college sports. His book, 28 Life-Changing Patients, is on Amazon, and he previewed lectures in Winnipeg, New Jersey, and Aventura, Florida.The hour closed with a Criminally Good with Jen and Sherrie simulcast, presented by Storehouse Media Group, featuring Wade Williamson, host of the Crime and Entertainment podcast, who lived the kind of story true crime usually only reports. Williamson recounted a late-night confrontation in his South Carolina home with a man connected to his estranged, and now reconciled, wife, an encounter that stayed civil for hours before turning violent. Licensed to carry and recovering from recent back surgery, he fired in self-defense when the man attacked and threatened his life, then immediately called 911, only to be charged with murder days later and to face the possibility of life in prison. He described a roughly five-year ordeal, dragged out by COVID, that cost him a fifteen-year job, drained his retirement savings, and ran up steep legal bills, until high-profile Charleston attorney Andy Savage helped clear his name in what Savage called a clean shoot. Williamson explained how launching his podcast while on house arrest became his therapy and outlet, and ultimately his path forward, and noted that he and his wife came through the ordeal still together.

VIC BLOWS OFF CLUB 20 And to say they are not happy about being blown off is an understatement. You may have missed Vic’s announcement that he is not doing any debates. Watch that here if you want. Victor Marx@victormarxMy challenge to @pweiser1:00 PM · Jul 28, 2026 · 145K Views The delusion of Vic is stunning here. He thinks, as the massive underdog now, that he can set the terms for a debate going forward? He’s insane. He’s a coward. He knows that Phil Weiser would wipe the floor with him. His “strategy” in the primary was stupid and he almost lost to someone who raised a fraction of the money he raised. And why in the hell would Phil Weiser agree to something this stupid? He won’t. I’m betting Greg Lopez will so there WILL be a gubernatorial debate and Vic will be a no show. What a clown show this campaign is. Club 20 sent out an press release, which reads in part: Marx’s campaign informed Club 20 Executive Director Wade Haerle on Sunday night that Marx would not be participating in a debate against Weiser in a county where he handily won the Republican primary. On Wednesday, Marx called Haerle personally to inform him he would not be participating in the debate. “The Republican nominee for governor does not want to come out and discuss western Colorado issues with the people of western Colorado and with Club 20. It’s wrong. We went bat-dung crazy when (current Gov.) Jared Polis refused to come. We’re going to do the same thing when the Republican nominee refuses to come,” Haerle told The Daily Sentinel on Wednesday afternoon. “My question to him was, ‘Where else do you need to be on Sept. 19, other than western Colorado in Grand Junction, Mesa County, debating western Colorado issues? Where on Earth do you need to be?’.... They said it comes down to schedules and times and resources and money and all these different kinds of things. That’s what we call political calculus. A kindergartner using kindergarten math could have figured this one out, but this is their decision.... It’s just disappointing as hell.” Why wouldn’t Vic just tell the truth about why he won’t be there? His video above makes him a liar to Club 20. But that doesn’t surprise me. Club 20 Executive Director Wade Haerle joins me at 12:30 to discuss it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kafa Kafaya'nın yeni bölümüde Yaşar ve Vahit, Kurtuluş Cengiz'in ''Yav İşte Fabrikalaşak'' kitabını okuyup değerlendiriyor. 2013 yılında yayımlanış kitap 2008-9 yılında yapılmış saha çalışmasına dayanıyor. Aslen kendisi de Kayseri-Hacılarlı olan Cengiz, o dönem Türkiye'nin en müreffeh ve sanayi kapasitesi yüksek ilçelerinden biri olan Hacılar'ın kapitalistleşme ve sanayileşme hikayesine odaklanıyor.2009 yılında Kayseri'deki toplam ekonomik üretiminin %60'ını, ihracatın %50'sini ve istihdamın %10'undan fazlasını yapan Hacılar'ın öyküsü, Türkiye'nin ekonomik tarihiyle de kesişiyor. Hacılar'ın bu başarısı aynı zamanda birçok başka rapora ve kitaba konu oluyor. 'Kalvinist Müslümanlar' adı altında çıkan bir rapor bu başarıyı İslam'ın Protestanlaşmasına bağlıyor. Ayrıca, Anadolu sermayesinin Türkiye'yi merkez-çevre paradigması bağlamında ''demokratikleştireceği ve liberalleştireceği'' dahi o dönem bazı düşünürler tarafından iddia ediliyor.Kurtuluş Cengiz ise bu iki iddianın da yanlış olduğunu belirtiyor. Anadolu'nun kapitalistleşmesini 20. yüzyılın başına kadar götüren Cengiz, dinin çok az bir rol oynadığını belirtiyor. Asıl etmenin sermaye birikimi, know-how edinimi, pazarların büyüyüşü ve Türkiye'nin dünya kapitalist sistemine entegrasyonu olduğunu belirtiyor. Ayrıca Anadolu sermaye birikimi ile demokratikleşme arasında bir bağlantı olmadığını belirtiyor.Yaşar ve Vahit, kitabın argümanlarını hem değerlendiriyor hem de eleştiriyor.00:00 - Giriş01:38 - Saha Çalışması02:41 - ‘Thick Description'03:47 - ‘Anadolu Kaplanları'05:31 - Bu Kitap Hangi Tezlere Karşı?07:31 - Marx vs Weber08:31 - Anadolu'da Kapitalizmin Doğuşu10:03 - Sermaye Gayrimüslimlerde11:35 - Eşkiyalığın Sosyolojik Kaynakları12:55 - Gayrimüslimlerin Yarattığı Boşluk14:38 - Anadolu'da Kaçakçılık16:43 - Hacılar'da Sermaye Oluşumu: Sümerbank ve Çerçilik20:22 - Rima Gold21:22 - Dokumacılık26:13 - Halıcılık: Bir Sonraki Aşama27:37 - Ticaretten Doğan Sermaye31:00 - Fabrikalaşma ve HES34:27 - Özal'ın Kayseri Ziyareti36:41 - Uçan Kazlar Modeli38:25 - Kayseri Neden Başarısını Koruyamadı?43:17 - Mektepli vs Alaylı48:45 - 18.

In this episode, we begin our new series on modernity with a discussion of Marshall Berman's 1982 book All That Is Solid Melts Into Air: The Experience of Modernity. Some of the questions we will tackle in this series will address the substance of modernity, whether modernity is singular or multiple, the relationship of art to modernization, and whether modernity is better understood as a rupture from the past or a development out of it. Berman, for his part, argues that modernity has always been about development through contradictions. We moderns bear witness to the constant dissolution of the traditions, political forms, and social mores of the past in the name of the production of the new. However, Berman thinks the 20th century has lost touch with the essentially contradictory nature of modernity by becoming either dogmatic enthusiasts of creative destruction or resolute pessimists who see nothing but degradation in modern life. He returns us to the 19th century where artists and thinkers such as Goethe, Marx, and Baudelaire had a more vivid and sensitive appreciation of the contradictory demands of modern development. We discuss Berman's ultimately hopeful account of modern experience, its relation to urban life, and why any future politics must reckon with people's desire for stability.

A new Atlantic cover story argues that America is sliding into a postliterate age—but G.K. Chesterton diagnosed the same collapse in 1928, years before Marshall McLuhan or Neil Postman raised the alarm. Joe Grabowski goes solo to walk through Rose Horowitch's statistics on the death of reading, then turns to two Illustrated London News essays in which Chesterton describes a public that has stopped reading connected prose and now only kisses books it has never opened. What emerges is a practical challenge for anyone who wants to recover the habit Chesterton simply assumed his own readers still had. In This Episode: Why G.K. Chesterton said so little about illiteracy—and what that silence reveals about how genuinely new this problem is Chesterton's 1928 warning that making reading "easier" signals a slump in reading rather than a boom What Chesterton meant by a public relapsing into the horn book and the cat on the mat—and why Joe Grabowski thinks he would have said much the same of reels, Shorts, and TikTok The 1921 essay in which Chesterton argued that the books shaping the world are the ones nobody has actually opened: Darwin, Marx, and the rumor that replaces the text Why Chesterton's critique lands on podcast listeners too—the risk of becoming the very type of person Chesterton described, taking opinions secondhand from influencers and favorite podcasters Resources Mentioned: "The End of Reading Is Here" by Rose Horowitch, The Atlantic "On Reading, and Not Being Able To," The Illustrated London News, December 8, 1928 What Mr. Belloc's Servile State Means by G.

Norbert Walz unternimmt in seinem Vortrag eine Rekonstruktion der Beziehung von Karl Marx zur Philosophie von den Anfängen bis zum "Kapital". Im Gegensatz zum traditionellen Marxismus sieht der Autor in der "marxistischen Philosophie", die vor allem auf Friedrich Engels zurückgeht, keine Entsprechung mit dem, was Marx unter Philosophie verstand. Allerdings blieb das Verhältnis von Marx zur Philosophie ambivalent: Einerseits bezieht er sich positiv auf sie, andererseits lehnt er sie seit der "Deutschen Ideologie" schroff ab. Unter der Oberfläche seiner Antiphilosophie verbergen sich philosophische Inhalte, die aufgrund einer Verdrängung nicht in der manifesten Theorie adäquat erscheinen konnten. Es enstanden Leerstellen der Theorie (Theorien des Individuums, der Geschichte, der Natur und des Wissens), die mit einer Metatheorie bzw. Postphilosophie aufzufüllen sind. Walz' Ansatz integriert mehrere unorthodoxe Lesarten von Marx, insbesondere die Wert- und Arbeitskritik, die Neue Marx-Lektüre und die Kritische Theorie. Referent: Dr. Norbert Walz ist als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter an der Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg tätig und beschäftigt sich insbesondere mit Kritischer Theorie, philosophischer Anthropologie und Ethik. 2025 erschien sein Buch Verdrängte Philosophie.

In this unlocked patreon episode Breht traces and explains a subterranean philosophical lineage running from Spinoza through Hegel to Marx and Louis Althusser. Beginning with Spinoza's conception of God or Nature as a single, immanent Substance, he explores how Hegel transforms Substance into a self-developing Subject, how Marx grounds the dialectic in material social life and class struggle, and how Althusser attempts to remove the final hidden Subject from Marxist theory. Along the way, he examines the concept of immanent critique, Kant's transcendental idealism, Hegel's master-slave dialectic, Marx's materialist transformation of idealism, and Althusser's concepts of overdetermination, interpellation, theoretical anti-humanism, and history as a "process without a Subject." What emerges is an ongoing struggle over immanence, contradiction, human agency, and whether history possesses either a sovereign author or a guaranteed destination.

Alan Skorski recently interviewed ordained Minister and Heritage Foundation Visiting Fellow, Luke Moon, who returned to Heritage following the Tucker Carlson fiasco last year, in which President Kevin Roberts initially refused to distance the think tank from Tucker Cralson, following his interview with Holocaust denier, racist groyper, Nick Fuentes. During the interview, Moon said that he had several conversations with Carlson, who sought his counsel on how to shed the “antisemitism” label. After advising Carlson on the necessary steps needed to redeem himself, “Tucker doubled down on his antisemitism,” according to Moon. Luke returned to Heritage as a Visiting fellow to combat antisemitism, from both the right and left. Moon spent last decade focusing his attention on raising awareness about persecuted Christians in the Middle East and encouraging Christian support for Israel and the Jewish people. During the interview, Moon spoke about the Marxist/Islamist alliance. While taking about Wisconsin Gubernatorial candidate and other DSA candidates, the frequent refrain is, " "None of us are free until Palestine is free." Moon asks, "Why is it important for the DSA activists and candidates to declare this idea? It is because the liberation of Palestine means the end of Israel. And Israel is a stand-in for God. To destroy Israel is to destroy God which would bring about liberation from God's commands and expectations." Israel is the living testimony that the God of the Bible makes promises and keeps them. You cannot look at a reconstituted Jewish state in the ancient homeland — after two thousand years of exile — and call it a coincidence. It is a provocation to every worldview that denies a sovereign God who acts in history. Karl Marx was once asked who he hated the most in Britain and his answer was a British preacher named Charles Spurgeon. Spurgeon was a revivalist preacher who was leading thousands of working-class people to faith and taking away Marx's army. Marx hated him for it. Similarly, the Islamists demand total submission to Allah. The God revealed in scripture, particularly through Israel and the Church, is a rival truth claim that must be suppressed. When Islamists come to power, the churches and synagogues are destroyed. The ones that aren't destroyed are turned into museums or government-controlled PR outlets. Back in 2014, when I started advocating for Christians in the Middle East, there were over 450,000 Christians in Iraq. Twelve years later, there are less than 185,000. There are more Christians in Israel than Iraq. Alan Skorski Reports 16JULY2026 - PODCAST

In this episode, we use Marx's infamous “Fragment on Machines” from the Grundrisse as a starting-point for a wide ranging discussion about the emancipatory and regressive potentials of AI technologies. Marx thought that automated systems of machinery are incredible embodiments of highly developed human knowledge, which render labor increasingly unnecessary in processes of production, opening the door for unprecedented liberation. Of course, tied to the imperatives of capital accumulation, even the most amazing machines do little more than increase the rate of exploitation and expose untold millions to desperate poverty. There's no reason in principle why machines, including AI systems, couldn't instead free up our time for the active development of our capacities and the pursuit of our personal and collective goals. Abolish the drudgery of gruntwork! But which way we go with these technologies is a political, not a technical matter; a little historical materialism goes a long way.leftofphilosophy.com | @leftofphil | @leftofphilosophy.bsky.socialReferences:Karl Marx, “Fragment on Machines”, in Grundrisse, trans.

Chuck And Julie Show with Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden Are DC UniParty forces trying to take over the CO GOP? Vice Chair Eric Grossman joins the show A Party Struggle Hidden from Public View Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden open the program by arguing that major developments inside the Colorado Republican Party are receiving little attention from conventional news outlets. They welcome Colorado GOP Vice Chair Eric Grossman to discuss internal leadership disputes, party finances, legal concerns, open primaries, and what they describe as outside influence over the state organization. Throughout the episode, the hosts and Grossman frame the conflict as a struggle between grassroots Republicans and establishment-aligned figures seeking to control candidate selection and party operations. Their comments draw on internal communications Julie says she reviewed, legal filings discussed by Grossman, and party actions the speakers interpret as evidence of outside or establishment control. Outside Influence and the Open-Primary Divide Grossman argues that Colorado Republicans are not fully directing their own party and points to the involvement of congressional delegation members in litigation related to Proposition 108. He and the hosts identify the open-primary system as the central philosophical divide within the party, asking whether Republican voters or the much larger bloc of unaffiliated voters should determine Republican nominees. They contend that elected officials and establishment interests may prefer candidates who can succeed under that system, even when those candidates do not strongly represent conservative grassroots priorities. Chuck further suggests that some national Republican organizations may care more about electing nominal Republicans to Congress than about whether those candidates closely reflect Colorado grassroots conservatives. Leadership Concerns, Bylaws, and Party Communication The conversation turns to newly elected chair Craig Steiner and the expectations surrounding his leadership. Julie notes that Grossman had appointed a bylaws committee with a majority supportive of the opt-out, and that Steiner later changed its composition so the opposing side held the advantage. Grossman criticizes what he describes as limited communication from the new chair and argues that actions, rather than public statements about unity, reveal the party leadership's real direction. The hosts also discuss Steiner's media appearances, his desire to unify competing factions, and their concern that trying to satisfy every side may result in passivity when decisive leadership is needed. Money, Attorneys, and the Party's Legal Position A substantial part of the interview concerns the Colorado GOP's financial and legal difficulties. Julie refers to internal communications that she says showed congressional representatives pressuring a previous chair to raise $75,000 or risk removal. Grossman and the hosts question why the party would continue directing money to an attorney they believe helped create the very legal and financial problems now confronting the organization. They also criticize the apparent reluctance to pursue legal action against former officials or advisers. Their discussion includes allegations of financial misconduct and possible criminal behavior, but those allegations remain the speakers' opinions and are not independently established within the transcript. Rebuilding Grassroots Control from the Ground Up When Julie asks how grassroots members can respond, Grossman says education, recruitment, attendance, and internal party voting are essential. He emphasizes that the next state leadership contest may be decided by only several hundred voting members, making recruitment, turnout, and proxy organization especially important. Chuck compares proxy voting with a form of ballot collection inside party elections, while Grossman argues that people who accept party positions must either attend meetings or properly assign their proxies. They maintain that grassroots candidates must organize early, build a first-ballot majority, and prevent later rounds from being shaped by private deals or establishment alliances. Candidate Debates and Wider Political Developments After Grossman leaves, Chuck and Julie discuss the statewide contest involving Republican Victor Marx and independent candidate Greg Lopez. Both say they would support Marx over Lopez, although they express doubt that Marx can win and suggest that Republican efforts may be more productive in competitive state legislative and local races. They also comment on Darlene Graham Nordam's temporary appointment to a state Senate seat and speculate about whether the eventual nominee will be a strong conservative or another establishment figure. The hosts then turn to an anticipated speech by President Trump, possible disclosures concerning the 2020 election, and Tulsi Gabbard's comments about resistance from entrenched federal bureaucrats. A Caller Connects Colorado Politics to Waco Caller Jacob closes the episode by drawing a connection between Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser's earlier service in the Justice Department and Attorney General Janet Reno's approval of the 1993 operation against the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Texas. Julie asserts that the gas used in the operation was flammable and caused the fire, while Jacob compares the event with historical acts of persecution. Jacob also raises Weiser's family history and Holocaust references as part of his criticism, and Chuck responds with strongly negative personal commentary about Weiser. The program ends with Julie thanking Grossman, the caller, and the audience before announcing the next show.

Why were Jews once stereotyped as America's arsonists? In this episode, Rabbi Marc Katz sits down with historian Jeffrey Marx to discuss his fascinating book Jewish Firebugs: Arson and Antisemitism from the Civil War to World War I (NYU Press, 2026), which uncovers a little-known chapter in the history of American antisemitism. In the decades after the American Civil War, major insurance companies instructed agents to deny fire insurance to Jewish customers, claiming they were uniquely prone to arson. That accusation quickly spread beyond the insurance industry, finding its way into newspapers, cartoons, vaudeville, popular songs, and silent films, helping to cement the image of the "Jewish firebug" in the American imagination. Drawing on fire department records, insurance files, trial transcripts, newspapers, and other archival sources, Marx untangles the complicated relationship between stereotype and reality. He explores why some Jewish immigrants became involved in organized arson schemes, how insurance companies often enabled those crimes for their own financial interests, and why Jews became the only ethnic group in America burdened with this particular accusation. The result is a nuanced history that reveals as much about immigrant life, poverty, and urban America as it does about the enduring power of antisemitic myths. Together, Marx and Katz examine how stereotypes are created, why they persist long after the facts have faded, and what this forgotten episode teaches us about the history—and continuing evolution—of antisemitism in the United States.

Liza Libes is defending literature like it's under siege, and after this conversation, you will understand why. Liza went to Columbia wanting to study Tolstoy and came out having read more Edward Said and Sartre she signed up for. We got into how her English degree turned into a theory degree overnight, why Anna Karenina isn't the feminist manifesto her professors taught it as, and why so much of what gets published now has had the backstory and the beauty edited right out of it by agents chasing a formula. Liza's family fled the Soviet Union, and her grandfather was imprisoned for being Jewish. Watching that same ideology resurface in new packaging on American campuses is terrifying. Find Liza at PensandPoison.org She also runs Advictus Prep and is shopping her first novel, which is basically a love letter to beauty written in spite of a literary world that's decided beauty is suspect. If you've been meaning to finally pick up that classic on your shelf, this is your sign! Memorable Quotes: "I don't think I met anyone in the English department who had the same reaction... A lot of people I think were actively trying to push this agenda because it had been sold to them." — Liza "Good fiction is inherently moral. That's not to say moral in one specific restricted sense, but good fiction should teach us something about the way to live our lives." — Liza "A lot of our art today is ironic, nihilistic, cynical, and just downright amoral." — Liza "If your response to [boredom in a marriage] is I'm just going to abandon this whole thing that gives everyone meaning, then that is going to lead you to a dark place." — Liza, on Anna Karenina "People will hold onto their identity more than the truth." — Polina, paraphrasing Chase Hughes "My family kind of went through horrific examples of antisemitism twice, just in our personal lives... and it's horrific that it's happening again." — Liza "If you're going to make one change in your life to lead a more full and fulfilling life, read classic literature." — Liza Follow us on Instagram  @thecuriousmiddlepod Our Website: https://curiousmiddlepod.com Email us: thecuriousmiddlepod@gmail.com Substack: https://curiousmiddle.substack.com Episode Time Stamps 04:32 — Arriving at Columbia expecting to study literature, getting Edward Said and postcolonial theory on Jane Austen instead 06:36 — Same pattern outside the English department — a philosophy class teaching Hegel through the lens of BLM, and why she eventually stepped back from academia 08:46 — How Pens and Poison started, and the slow, stuck-at-20K-followers climb before it took off 11:05 — The daily messages from silenced students and aspiring writers — and how the same ideological capture spread into publishing 13:15 — Columbia's Core Curriculum as a partial exception, and why STEM friends noticed the politicization more than English majors did 15:29 — Pausing to unpack just how deep this runs — you can't study literature today without studying Marx 17:39 — Edward Said and the "settler colonist" framing; Sartre's introduction to The Wretched of the Earth 19:57 — More on Sartre's radicalization, Simone de Beauvoir, and the ideas of theirs still taught as fact 22:10 — Derrida, deconstruction, and the postmodern claim that literature has no objective meaning 24:21 — Paulo Freire and how "social justice as the point of education" filtered into every subject, not just humanities 28:55 — Why you don't need to be a humanities major to benefit from literature — it as a stand-in for religious meaning 31:19 — Anna Karenina as a case study: Tolstoy's actual argument vs. balancing tradition with modern life 33:37 — T.S.

It's Tuesday, July 7th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson, Timothy Reed, and Adam McManus Chinese pastor Ezra Jin released from prison Praise God! Chinese House Church Pastor Ezra Jin has been released from a communist prison!   This comes after US President Donald Trump brought up his case with the Chinese president last month. China Aid interprets the action as a  “goodwill gesture coinciding with America's Independence Day.” Bob Fu of China Aid noted that “While we celebrate Pastor Jin's freedom, our hearts remain with the countless jailed pastors and coworkers from Zion Church as well as priests, bishops, and house church Christians. . . who remain unjustly imprisoned by the Chinese Communist Party.”   Pastor Jin's daughter, Grace Jin Drexel, has spoken out on national media and lobbied Congress and the President for the release of her father since he was arrested last October.  Iran sentenced five people to death Iranian courts have sentenced five more people to death because they participated in alleged “anti-government” activities in recent protests. This adds to the 1,639 persons executed in 2025, according to Iran International.  Iranian officials call for Trump's assassination Calls for President Trump's assassination from Iranian government officials and the crowd of hundreds of thousands on the streets of Tehran were plentiful, according to the New York Post. One banner promised $100 million for the person who kills the US President, according to reports from Iran International.   Cuba's nationwide blackout Another communist country, Cuba, is in serious economic and social disintegration. The country experienced a nationwide blackout over the weekend — affecting transportation, crucial medical care, and government operations, reports FoxNews. That's the third blackout in six months. Russian missiles and drones killed 21 Ukrainian citizens Russian missiles and drones killed 21 Ukrainian citizens in a blitz attack on Kiev over the weekend. Another 100-plus people were injured in the attacks, that came at the eve of a NATO summit, reports the BBC. President Donald Trump reports to have had a lengthy “constructive” conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday.  LEGO pushes sexual perversion The Denmark-owned LEGO company is openly pushing homosexual Pride parades, homosexual faux marriage, and other homosexualized themes for children. The LEGO company's pride month celebration included a contest intended to groom children in homosexual ideologies. In the words of their website, LEGO seeks to “celebrate everyone you love.” In Matthew 18:6, Jesus said, “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” Evangelical Christian edges out RINO in Colorado's governor race An evangelical Christian, Victor Marx, has edged out the middle-of-the-road Republican candidate in Colorado's gubernatorial race, reports Colorado Newsline. After 97% of the primary vote count has come in, Marx maintains a 1% lead. A recount may still be in the works. Trump-endorsed candidates and conservative candidates have won so far in Texas, Louisiana, Indiana, and Georgia. Abortion is up despite Roe v. Wade's demise Despite the U.S. Supreme Court's overturn of Roe v. Wade in 2022, abortions continue to rise in the United States.  The most recent numbers indicated 1.13 million abortions nationwide last year. That's up from 862,000 in 2017, reports The Christian Post. While a number of Republican-leaning states have restricted abortion, many Democrat-leaning states have opened up access to abortions.  Additionally, the Abortion Kill Pill is accessible in all states, and remains the largest driver in the uptick of abortion numbers. Psalm 94:21 says, “They gather together against the life of the righteous, and condemn innocent blood.” Dept. of Justice cracks down on medical fraud The Department of Justice is cracking down on medical fraud. More than 450 defendants were named in the latest fraud bust, with the fraud totaling more than $6.5 billion!  Robert F. Kennedy Jr., head of the Department of Health and Human Services, explained the implications of the far-reaching medical fraud bust. KENNEDY: “Our objective is straightforward: to stop the fraud before it happens. “The people charged today should understand that we will continue expanding these capabilities, strengthening and enforcement, and pursuing every credible allegation of fraud. If you exploit patients for profit, if you steal Medicaid or Medicare dollars, if you treat taxpayer dollars as your personal bank account, we will investigate you. “We will build the case, and we will bring you to justice. We will find fraud, we will stop it, we will recover taxpayer dollars whenever the law permits, and we will restore integrity to the programs that millions of Americans rely on for their care.” 7 million illegals under Biden drove up housing costs A new report out of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas detailed the massive impact illegal immigration has had on housing prices. Per the report, around seven million illegal immigrants entered the United States during the Biden presidency, which contributed greatly to soaring housing prices. The report further read, “A back-of-the-envelope calculation suggests that [unauthorized immigrant worker flows] can explain about 30% of the total growth in house prices and 20% of total growth in rents over the boom period for the average local market.” And Lora Ries of the Heritage Foundation asserted, “We have at least 20 million deportable aliens in the U.S. Deporting millions of them will free up the housing supply, bring down housing costs, and allow young Americans to buy homes and start families.” But are there enough workers in America to do the work?  Fewer and fewer able-bodied Americans are willing to work.  The U.S. Labor Participation rate has dipped to 61.5% — down from 67% in the early 2000s. Unemployment is running at 4.2% — slightly higher than unemployment rates prior to the Covid pandemic in 2019. Worldview listeners weigh in from Canada, Georgia and Illinois Keith Lozon in Windsor, Ontario Canada wrote me at Adam@TheWorldview.com. He said, “I listen to The Worldview in 5 Minutes every day from Monday through Friday along with the ‘Morning Wire' and Albert Mohler's ‘The Briefing.' That's how I start my day.” Amy Zdunowski in Waverly Hall, Georgia wrote, “I listen to The Worldview in the mornings as I get ready for the day. I just started listening this year. I enjoy hearing a recap of the news, especially stories about Christians around the world that you don't hear about on other platforms.” And Pat Link in Park Ridge, Illinois wrote, “I start my day with a Daily Devotion, then read The Worldview and pray and praise to God for the news stories.  Then, I read my Bible and understand more and more the guide book to my Heavenly home.” 15 Worldview listeners gave $4,249 over the weekend and on Monday And finally, over the weekend and on Monday, 15 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another 365 days.

The central concept of Marx's contribution to a critical understanding of the capitalist economic system - the entry point into his distinctive analysis - is "the surplus." Today's show is devoted to making clear (1) what the surplus is, (2) how and why the surplus is central to understanding capitalism's key features, and (3) how the surplus explains such flaws in capitalism, such as the endless class struggles it provokes and the extreme inequalities of wealth and income it generates.
