A podcast for revolutionaries and those for genuine total human liberation
☆☆☆☆☆
”There are many good left-wing podcasts out there these days, but what sets Red Flag Radio apart is its indomitable attitude to total working class revolution. There’s no softness on reformists, no strings attached support for the oppressed and their struggles and very clear sense of the project of the revolutionary left today which informs all the discussions from the environment, global uprisings and fighting oppression. If you’re an organised revolutionary, or just finding your feet in left-wing and radical politics then this podcast should definitely be a top priority for you. Increasingly as capitalism destroys the planet, ramps up political repression against the oppressed and continues to exacerbate massive inequality we need a clear revolutionary set of politics to solve these crises - this is what this podcast will provide”.

Polarisation in the German election: Die Linke, the centre and the fascist AfD
Our guest Rick Kuhn explains the results of the German election. Rick is a socialist economist and political analyst. He is the author of a biography of Marxist economist Henryk Grossman, for which he won the Deutscher Prize.
In understanding the German election, the key word is "polarisation". The fascist AfD have received their best vote yet, of over 20%. Meanwhile the anti-racist left party, Die Linke, tapped into a movement of young antifascists and picked up 9%. The centre ruling coalition has collapsed after years of economic stagnation and migrant-bashing, and has been replaced by the conservative Christian Democrats who court the far-right.
