01.06 Introduction. Some descriptions of Christoph from Twitter. Iona and Christoph discuss how he moved from blogging, via Facebook to Twitter.
22.02 How online culture functions and the way in which extreme views can be the most visible.
25.23 Iona discusses her own behavior on Twitter and our impulse to protect our reputations.
40.10 Is “woke” still a useful term? Victimhood culture and the idea that disagreement is harmful.
52.12 How both the right and left wing behave online. The left’s obsession with managing speech instead of addressing more complex, meaningful problems.
1:00:01 Class, including the way it relates to Indian nationalism and the caste system. How the left is eating itself instead of fighting common enemies. The American-centric nature of online discourse. Modern British leftist distaste for the white working class.

1:25:02 What are the positives of Twitter? Some iconic tweets.
