Ep 17 - Redpillers, the Post-Apocalypse, and Jenkem, all in one show?! - a podcast by Giving the Mic to the Wrong Person

We have a Patreon now! https://www.patreon.com/givingthemic/

Natasha(@ashesforfoxes), Garrett(@comradegarrett), & I started by talking about Gamergate/RedPill/MRA bollocks, and naturally wander off into creators who can't be edited, Zizek, why we can't envision a future that isn't post-apoc or SkyNet-controlled, and wind up mentioning fake drugs, from "Nuke" to one the media actually think are real, like Jenkem. Ep was recorded in early April.

Notes:
- - - - - -
The quote I'm mangling is from Fredric Jameson(I think), and Zizek says it a lot: "It is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism"
