This podcast seeks to challenge the commonly held assumptions about Japan as harmonious, homogeneous, and traditional by recasting its history as a history of conflict and change, as the history of class struggles, from anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, and intersectional perspectives.
Good pod, i will say kinda dry compared to what I'm used to but an otherwise great look into Japanese politics for me
I prefer dry nowadays. Bit sick of friend simulators
It's not a problem for me, just not used to it, sorry if it came across that way. I don't mind the friend simulators, i don't get any parasociality (at least i try not to) but i like it too
Didn't mean to imply friend simulators are bad. Listen to what you like. But when things start with 5 minutes of banter I start to get bored
I'm basically allergic to artificial parasocial sweeteners so I'm down for dryness. :soviet-chad:
Episode Title: Marx and Hegelian Dialectics
The first 30 minutes:
"So, you know, last week I took a shit so big the toilet started overflowing just from the displacement..."
"That's really something, and it reminds me of my side hustle and my sponsor..." :morshupls:
