Anomie: Anarchy in the 21st Century

In a world dominated by Capitalism, three intrepid Anarchist friends from the North Atlantic Archipelago (Ireland, Scotland and begrudgingly England) journey to find truth, socialism and a Zoom handle that doesn't involve poop. The Anomie co-hosts met a decade ago as student activists in the UK and have graduated to unemployed armchair academics in Dublin. Each week they (and a rotating third host) discuss a different topic from both a historical and ideological perspective and try and relate it to the current dystopia of Corporate Feudalism.

"Robert Preston doesn't understand mirrors": Client Journalism and the Manufacturing of Consent in the UK media

In this week's episode we explore the client journalism of the British press and how the media manufactures consent for the continuing rule of a corrupt and greedy English ruling elite. For those living outside Britain the behaviour of the British media is often astounding: Why do they defend the Tory government? Why do they ignore the huge wealth inequality throughout the country? Why do they mock any small attempt at reforming the political system? Why does Laura Kuenssberg have a job? We will attempt to answer these questions and more.
