Crisis of Passion – We talk about art, weirdness, and the crisis of passion. The Bronze Age Pervert talks about the Christian takeover of Trump’s movement. These Christians blame postmodern culture and memes for Charlie Kirk’s murder. We talk about how pointing at postmodernism and irony becomes a veiled form of censorship, and how there is artistic opportunity in the reconciliation of Christians with the rotting corpse, the stink, the body on the cross. We talk about Mel Gibson, Brechtian theater, the Counter-Reformation, and Bernini’s Theresia trembling in delicious pain.
