Summary of previous discussions: Summarizing the previous two videos, we delved into the intricate interplay between narrative, perception, and ideology within political discourse. We explored the nuanced distinctions between anti-imperialism, anti-authoritarianism, and leftist perspectives, recognizing that they may not always align seamlessly. We then explored themes that have persisted from the 2014 Gaza War to the present conflict.
In this session we discussed how the actions of the Trump administration accelerated and escalated instability in the region. We examined various responses to the administration's unilateralism, as well as religious interpretations of these actions. Additionally, we explored why the left often excludes religion from their analysis and why incorporating it can be necessary. Finally, we compared the discourse of a conservative Rabbi with social media posts made by some pro-Palestinian leftists to examine Islamophobia and anti-Semitism. -

Continuing from the previous conversation, we delve into the intricate interplay between narrative, perception, and ideology within political discourse. We explore the nuanced distinctions between anti-imperialism, anti-authoritarianism, and leftist perspectives, recognizing that they may not always align seamlessly.
In this context, we examine the role of organizations like the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and their utilization of social media to shape perceptions and garner support. The evolution of Hamas, balancing adaptation with political realities, becomes a focal point.
We then pivot from the Fatah-Hamas Conflict to the 2014 Gaza War, dissecting its ramifications and the precedents it established for contemporary events. By analyzing historical events through this lens, we gain a deeper understanding of current geopolitical dynamics and their implications. -
n this Livestream, I delve into the broad origins of Hamas, aiming to comprehend their worldview while maintaining a stance of not endorsing it.

I'll be having ongoing "office hours" live streams about once a month. I'm currently focused on writing and want to maintain the audio connection. I'll be putting polls for topics up on the YouTube Community page and X. These will be informal and focus on a book, a few articles, an idea etc. The topic that won polls for this session is Oct 7th. I'm aiming for 30 min or so to start. If you can't make it and want to send associated articles, comments or opinions then email me at therightpodcast.proton.me

This will be episode one of a two-part series in which I talk to Tom from the Rhizome House. The Rhizome House is a radical center and info shop found in Cleveland ohio that sponsors and facilitates activites ranging from harm reduction to reading groups. I found Rhizome House after learning about Cooper Harris Andrews in research about anarchist efforts in Ukraine. Tom speaks about Cooper who was active at Rhizome House before leaving to fight in Ukraine in an act of international solidarity and autonomous action. We ended up talking about a lot more which is why I broke this up into two parts.
In this episode we covered topics such as international solidarity and resistance, Tamir Rice, realities of conflict, right to self-defense, campism, stability politics, abstraction of thought in the left, alternative media and more. If you’ve listened to previous episodes, -

Episode one of three. This episode will introduce audiences to both the Belarusian Cyber Partisans and Distributed Denial of Secrets Collective. These groups participated in and store one of the largest hacks/leaks of Russian government data regarding censorship. These groups have been called the successor to Wikileaks yet very little has been reported on them in the West. This is especially true for anti-imperialist, anti-censorship and "anti-war" groups on the internet. This episode also covers reporting that has occurred mostly from eastern European outlets. Topics in the leak to be censored range from anti-war protests to the use of artificial intelligence and ocular technology for automating censorship.
