A few good things I can think of after I posted this yesterday. This shit doesn't have to be perfect, just provide a list and some explanations on how it can be effective. This is just meant to get the ball rolling, not meant to come perfect. Just think of these as media jumping off points.

  • Parenti, Blackshirts and Reds
  • Zinn, A People's History of the United States
  • Schlosser, Fast Food Nation - a great rundown on the fucked up fast food industry
  • Ehrenreich, Nickeled and Dimed - holy shit this one's depressing
  • Davis, City of Quartz - basically fuck LA
  • Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth
  • Nestle, Food Politics - for some reason when I talk about food it really messes with libs, definitely worth it
  • It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, "The Gang Goes Jihad" - shockingly pro-Palestinian take on Israel
  • Adam Ruins Everything - bite-sized content that doesn't always indict capitalism, but I think it does the trick
  • Philosophy Tube
  • Shaun
  • HBomberguy
  • Snowpiercer
  • Parasite

What else y'all got?

    Just revisited the It's Always Sunny episode, must have watched that episode when I was a lib. Hard to believe I completely missed out on the metaphor the first time I watched it. Really important that we get libs to not only consume this media, but set them up with why that media is good.
