Polish Protests: What Is Going On?


Content Warning: Abortion, Blasphemy, and Revolution.

We spoke to Gabriel to get a handle on what's happening with women's rights, politics, protests, and the Catholic Church in Poland.

Funny, alarming, enlightening, and disturbing. If you wondered WTF is going on in Poland, I'd recommend you check out this frank discussion.

Anti-PiS protest song by an activist currently in prison for speaking against the current government:

How I hate you so much
How much I hate you
How much I despise you
probably just as much as you despised me

So sing along together!
You need to say fuck you to PiS
and you need not to be afraid of them
and in the face of the adversity, you must strike

PiS politician is a whore above all whores
And that is how their brotherhood works
PiS politician is stealing millions...
...just to give it to the church

So sing along together!...

We tried to steelman Capitalism and Democracy, and ended up with Mr. Koch holding court with some practical changes grounded in political and economic theory that none could argue with. Another wonderful crossover with the Real Politik gents, and a very impressive guest.

Polite Political Discourse and Activism in America


The DMC, Biden, and Trump are barely mentioned while we have a frank discussion on the future of American politics with a former Conservative, and a former Bernie or Buster, both of whom have changed their minds several times in recent years, and spend time reaching across the aisle to people with differing political opinions having seen the benefit of getting involved in local politics.
