One of the best commie podcasts
Good interviews, good reading groups. You will learn a lot from this pod!
I like it a lot
i do. (Hammer and Sickle emoji)
favorite
this is my favorite podcast. super interesting, i wish it was more frequent. a link to this podcast is my go-to response to liberals telling me "youre such an idealist dreamer lol learn economics dummy"
we DO understand economics. the idea that socialism is against basic economics is a lie propogated by the bourgeoise to attract smug intellectuals to capitalism. this podcast is also super informative, and it helps me give my non-leftist friends a peek into the way we think about economic issues and philosophies and why we chose this political tendency in the first place!
thank you so much, tom.
