This week we invited Daniel Tutt and C. Derick Varn to talk about their new book, The People are Not One: Socialist Strategy After Left Populism.  From the publisher: In The People Are Not One, Daniel Tutt and C. Derick Varn dismantle the central illusion of contemporary left politics: that “the people” can serve as a coherent subject of emancipation. Against both right and left populisms, they argue that this fantasy of unity obscures real class antagonisms and traps socialism in a dead-end politics of moral appeal and electoral maneuver. Through a sustained critique of left-populism, post-Marxist theory, and Democratic Party–oriented socialism, Tutt and Varn show how the collapse of mass politics, alongside debates over the professional-managerial class and the atomization of working-class life, has produced a strategic impasse on the left. What follows is not a lament but a provocation: a call to abandon populist shortcuts and rebuild socialist strategy on the terrain of class struggle as it actually exists—uneven, divided, and politically unformed. The People Are Not One is a manifesto for a post-populist left willing to confront fragmentation head-on and begin the long work of reconstructing class power. https://www.revolpress.com/people-not-one https://danieltutt.com/ https://www.patreon.com/cw/varnvlog 

Skambiname pavojaus varpais dėl nykstančių mūsų krašto paukščių rūšių, nes vasarą potencialios jų buveinės beatodairiškai malamos į biokurą. Su Lietuvos ornitologų draugijos direktoriumi Liutauru Raudonikiu aptarsime tyrimų rezultatus, kurie rodo, kad Lietuvoje išnyko iki 90 proc. kai kurių paukščių rūšių.Ar žinojote, kad Lietuvoje turime tikrų, skambiai giedoti mokančių cikadų, kurios daugeliui asocijuojasi tik su Viduržemio jūros kurortais? Apie šį paslaptingą, be galo retą vabzdį ir jo biologijos ypatumus pasakoja Kauno Tado Ivanausko zoologijos muziejaus entomologas Romas Ferenca.Ved. Selemonas Paltanavičius ir Alvyda Bajarūnaitė

As Sean and Varn reconvene we are faced with the unenviable task of trying to understand what the hell the Democratic Party is going to run on in 2026 and 2028, How to understand this economic moment? How to understand the various geopolitical crises around the globe? How are counterhegemonic actors like Graham Platner and Alex Jones going to politically confront the brave new world of AI?

Kristen (Jesper Langberg) og Iben (Ulla Henningsen) bliver skilt. Ulrik Varnæs gør en pige Maja (Rikke Wølck) gravid. Hun er af arbejderstanden, til Mauds fortrydelse og forargelse. Agnes (Kirsten Olesen) og Mads (Jørgen Buckhøj) har derimod begge succes i deres forretninger og finder stadig mere behag i hinandens ven- og selskab. Tekst fra Danskefilm.dk

Jason and Varn are back and discussing Dugin again. As the discussion of the book inches closer to conclusion, this discussion moves into Dugin's ideas about Fascism, Liberalism, and Communism and the need to transcend these ideologies in the 21st century before moving into the Heideggerian foundations of Dugin's thought.   Join the Regrettable Century Patreon Visit the Regrettable Century Merch Shop Check Out Varn Vlog

Sean and Varn tackle the important question regarding the release of the much-vaunted 'Epstein Files': which ones of 'our faves' might be implicated? How do we avoid the 'socialism of fools' after this and Gaza? What does the Epstein story tell us about the rot at the heart of our ruling class? What do the files tell us about the absolute state of barbarism we currently live in and must find some way to work ourselves out of?N.B. at one point in the main episode Sean, in reference to diversity within Judaism, mentions the Satmar Hasidic community in NYC but neglects to mention why he brought it up which is because they one of the main sects that rejects Zionism on religious principle.

Andy, Varn, and Alex of Antipolitika Journal read and discuss Gianfranco Sanguinetti's 1979 text "On Terrorism and the State."A follow-up on his "Truthful Report on the Last Chances to Save Capitalism in Italy" hoax from a few years earlier, the text accuses the Italian State of arranging the kidnapping and murder of Aldo Moro, and being behind all acts of terrorism as a short-sighted strategy of defense. The piece also condemns leftwing arm struggle as reproducing the Spectacle, ultimately proposing its own vision of proletarian insurrection.Subscribe for the full episode and Discord discussion: https://www.patreon.com/c/thiswreckageFall promotion!

Bonus Episode #51 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. A tale written in starlight begins. The Starbinder's Oath is an original high-fantasy radio drama told through narration, sound, and the music of video games. In Part One, The Loom of Stars, we follow Kaelen, a young initiate and the last remaining of the ancient Starbinders, as he steps into a world of fractured constellations, forgotten ruins, and shadowed betrayals. Across ten immersive scenes, Kaelen encounters mentors, rivals, and mysteries that test his resolve. From the jagged cliffs of the Glimmering Veil to the ancient obelisk where history itself crumbles, his journey leads him into confrontation with the sinister Cindercloaks and their enigmatic champion, Varn. Along the way, the Codex of Stars whispers, bonds are questioned, and the pull of Zyra, the creator of the Loom, grows ever closer. This is not simply a story... it's an unfolding saga, blending the power of dramatic narration with carefully chosen pieces of video game music to heighten every moment. Step into the oath. Bind yourself to the stars. And discover what awaits in The Starbinder's Oath.

Sean and Varn catch up on the first 100 days or so of Trump 2.0, the inanities and indignities of history forced to move again in dumb, but possibly productive ways. Most of all this moment calls for humility amidst radical political and economic changes we might only be able to 'sane-wash' in 20 or 30 years, if ever. How have recent events challenged our priors as Marxists or as Millennials or as Americans? Even if the Left is largely powerless to affect global events, do we at least have the courage to situate ourselves and our own subjectivities within the massive changes of the last 10 to 15 years? How might the left wing of capital respond to the current chaos and how might we?To listen to the bonus portion of this episode (where all the deportable offenses might happen) become a patron at www.patreon.com/theantifada for this and all our great bonus content.To watch this episode on video become a patron of the excellent, independent Varn Vlog at www.patreon.com/varnvlog

Stroky Sean and cancer-free Varn are reunited to dive back into the wreckage. This is part one of over three hours of conversation about just about everything under the sun (what happens when we take a several month break from these things) including political economy, current events, intra-Marxist rivalry and analysis. Mostly we bid adieu to the Long Twentieth Century. Turns out it expired for real this time not on 9/11/01 but 11/5/16. We are in a new epoch and its time to start acting like it!To check out a couple more hours of this kind of thing you can become a patron at www.patreon.com/theantifadaTo check out of couple more hours but on video (!) you can become a patron at www.patreon.com/varnvlogSong: Gary Numan - This Wreckage

And, in the bonus section, out of all this decay what hope is there in some sort of renewal?
