Also, if I had a critique of the podcast, it is that it didn't really capture the wave of popular resistance to the genocide on an international scale, particularly in the street. My formulation on this is that the Al Aqsa Flood played the role of unleashing the enthusiasm, and righteous indignation of the progressive forces on an international scale and the people of Gaza are paying an awful price for that in the immediate term. In the long term I think it can help prepare us for the struggles against fascism that lay ahead by building our fighting morale and strengthening our resolve.
Listening for the 2nd time. Intro is dope. Appreciate the discussion about the meaning and utility of settler colonialism as a concept. Great point about the non partisan nature of truth in general. Though there is a point to be made for truth processes (Badiou) and class truth. Look forward to the next podcast.
