Radio Free Humanity: The Marxist-Humanist Podcast
MHI
143 episodes
1 week ago
Co-hosts Andrew Kliman and Gabriel Donnelly speak with guest Gavin Mueller, an assistant professor of New Media and Digital Culture at the University of Amsterdam. Mueller researches the politics of digital culture and much of our discussion centers on the realities of artificial intelligence in our time. They consider the huge amount of money being spent on Large Language Models, how they work, and what they can actually do as opposed to what all the hype says that they can (or will be able to???) do. Additionally the discussants consider how workers can fight the encroachment of this new, automated technology into the workplace. Our discussion leans on parts of Gavin’s book Breaking Things at Work: The Luddites Are Right About Why You Hate Your Job. They consider what Marx said about technology and automation, and how it applies to this situation. Plus current-events segment: the co-hosts discuss the political indictments handed down from the Trumpist Department of Justice that have targeted personal foes of Trump-James Comey, Leticia James, and John Bolton. Radio Free Humanity is co-hosted by Gabriel Donnelly and Andrew Kliman, and sponsored by Marxist-Humanist Initiative (https://www.marxisthumanistinitiative.org/ ).

RFH Ep 128 The New Stage of Struggle Against Trumpism (Discussion of MHI Editorial)
Co-hosts Andrew Kliman and Gabriel Donnelly discuss Marxist-Humanist Initiative’s upcoming editorial “The New Stage of Struggle Against Trumpism.” The co-hosts, and the editorial, consider the situation we all face after Trump’s second election. In particular, they discuss the current lack of a concerted resistance, the elected Democrats who are toying with collaboration, and what makes 2024 different from 2016. Additionally, they consider the fragile state of the global situation and of American democracy. An important aspect of their discussion is the need for a theoretical framework for understanding Trumpism to be part of any resistance. They discuss how the rise of the split-ballot voters shows the need for a serious conception of Trumpism to undergird any serious mass resistance Plus current-events segment: the fall of Assad and the bombshell events in Syria. Almost everyone was taken aback by these developments, the co-hosts included, and they consider how this situation is still in flux.
