    Ep 4. Against the Gendered Nightmare (Part 1)

    We’re tackling Part 1 of Baedan: Against the Gendered Nightmare, the anarchist manifesto that gleefully dismantles the binary, while weaving its vision of a queer utopia through the threads of anti-civilizational chaos. It’s a love letter to erasing boundaries and torching the structures of the world as we know it—so naturally, we’re here to deconstruct their deconstruction. In this episode, we’ll cover the introduction up to Section V, where the authors explore the historical underpinnings of gender, the historical origins of capitalism, and their call to reject it all in favor of infinite, unbound resistance. Get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into the contradictions, hypocrisies, and dangerous fantasies in Against The Gendered Nightmare. Let’s expose the nightmare and prepare for the counter-revolution. Let’s begin. The Counter-Revolutionary Book Club is a defiantly anti-communist series dedicated to dissecting and analyzing the far left's most audacious texts and ideas. Explore a curated collection of documents and podcasts in the Book Club section—where intellectual resistance begins. The podcast is now available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

    EP 3: Polyamory and Queer Anarchism: Infinite Possibilities for Resistance (Live Recording)

    In this episode, we tackle Susan Song’s Polyamory and Queer Anarchism: Infinite Possibilities for Resistance. The document isn’t just an intellectual critique—it’s a manifesto for redefining relationships, gender, and sexuality as weapons against capitalism. Yes, you read that right: they think your love life is the frontline of the revolution. Song uses queer theory to frame polyamory and BDSM as radical acts of resistance, arguing that rejecting traditional relationships dismantles capitalist norms. But here’s the kicker: the “queer” in queer anarchism means non-normative—it’s a full-throated rebellion against the idea of stability, structure, and anything that upholds and reproduces capitalist society. Let’s dig into what “queer” means in this context, why they fetishize non-monogamy and kink as anti-capitalist tools, and how their entire framework unravels under scrutiny. Key Takeaways: * Queer as Anti-Normative: For queer anarchists, being queer isn’t about sexual or gender identity—it’s a rejection of stability, tradition, and systems tied to capitalism, all in the name of collective liberation. * Polyamory Is Revolutionary: Song presents polyamory as an anti-capitalist rebellion, rejecting monogamous marriage as a capitalist construct tied to the nuclear family. * BDSM to Smash the State: BDSM becomes a method to “queer” sex by inverting power dynamics. In this view, the submissive symbolizes the dictatorship of the proletariat through the consensual relinquishing of power. * The Left’s War on “Normal”: The relentless drive to dismantle societal norms isn’t about individual freedom—it’s about abolishing capitalism and replacing it with Marxist ideals.

    EP 2: Toward The Queerest Insurrection by the Mary Nardini Gang (Live Recording)

    The Counter-Revolutionary Book Club is a defiantly anti-communist series dedicated to dissecting and analyzing the far left's most audacious texts and ideas. Explore a curated collection of documents and podcasts in the Book Club section—where intellectual resistance begins. The podcast is now available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Nothing screams "real-life dystopian far-left literature" louder than Toward The Queerest Insurrection by the Mary Nardini Gang. Penned in the pre-gay-marriage era, this fever dream of anarchist thought takes queer identity and twists it into a war cry against societal norms, or as they like to call it, "normativity." This text isn’t about rainbow capitalism or Instagram-friendly activism. Toward The Queerest Insurrection doesn’t tinker with the system—it wants to burn the whole thing down. This isn’t just a manifesto; it’s a Molotov cocktail aimed squarely at capitalism. The Mary Nardini Gang frames queer liberation not as a quest for acceptance but as a full-scale annihilation of everything resembling “normal”—jobs, families, private property, you name it. Marriage equality is branded as nothing more than a gilded cage designed to domesticate queerness and sell it back to us in sanitized corporate packaging. What makes this document a standout in the dystopian fever swamp of leftist literature is its unapologetic call for insurrection. Not reform, not dialogue, not even polite disagreement—just pure, chaotic rebellion. It’s anarchist queer theory on steroids, rejecting any notion of compromise while championing disorder as a way of life. The text doesn’t just flirt with radicalism; it marries it, divorces it, and sets the house on fire for good measure. In the echo chambers of anarchist and queer radical circles, Toward The Queerest Insurrection has become both a blueprint and a battle cry. To the rest of us, it serves as a stark reminder of the far left’s darkest impulses—a vision of liberation so extreme it makes dystopia look tame. Buckle up, because this is only the beginning of the rabbit hole. Follow along with the text here.
