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.

Zack Snyder's Jockstrap: The hysteria of modern fandom and the death of Art

In the final episode of season two we discuss the origins of the modern phenomenon of toxic fandom amongst supporters of Pop Sci-Fi and Fantasy movies and TV Shows. Is this simply an over exuberance for the narrative arc of Luke Skywalker or a sign of a deeply chaotic world that is funnelling people into a fantasy echo chamber where they can hide from the horrors of an increasingly oligarchic tyranny.
