    Not Politics the thesis (part 2) - Middle Paragraph: Medieval Times

    Not Politics the thesis (part 2) - Middle Paragraph: Medieval Times

    The exciting sequel to last week's episode. Introducing crank intellectual Brooks Adams and his epic work The Law of Civilization and Decay, we take our time machine to #ancientrome, #thecrusades, and anywhere else we feel like in European history. Building from part one's attempt to define what politics is, this one is about why (and how) it went away. Follow @birdfanzines on twitter, maybe send him some new memes for his collection.

    Not Politics the thesis (part 1) - Intro: Arendt and Habermas

    Not Politics the thesis (part 1) - Intro: Arendt and Habermas

    We haven't abandoned you, and this time we have a whole new grift, our first multi-part series. The idea here is I present an idea to Mike as though its a thesis defence - the thesis being "not politics', and what that is. This episode is like the introductory chapter. We cover #arendt #hannaharendt, we cover #habermas, we cover the #publicsphere and the stupid old #enlightenment and #ancientgreece. Please say thank you to us for coming back on twitter at @birdfanzines and of course our super wordpress https://tinpolitics.wordpress.com/

    Conspiracy Detectives

    Okay this was supposed to be a quick chat about how most times you hear a #conspiracytheory about the #deepstate, it is just plain old #geopolitics in action. It wound up going pretty long and very often off topic. Expect to hear about: #kissinger #alexjones #sirhalfordmackinder #heartlandtheory #worldisland #gamalabdelnasser #marxism #operationgladio #operationcondor #defenceindustry #gulfmonarchies #atlanticism #dugin #brzezinsky #marshallplan #brettonwoods #potlach
