Ancient Hatreds (Or New Antisemitism, and the Left’s ‘Muslim Problem’ with Dr. Jonathan Galton)
'The Imperial Sessions Part 2' Conversations on Fascism & Media / Video Episode 5
Ancient Hatreds (Or New Antisemitism, and the Left’s ‘Muslim Problem’ with Dr. Jonathan Galton)
In part 2 of the Imperial Sessions series I'm joined by Dr. Jonathan Galton to talk about his upcoming book 'Does Islamo-Leftism exist? British-Left-Muslim connections beyond the caricatures'. Jonathan shared with me a chapter titled 'Is the left antisemitic?' and that spurred us to record a conversation unpacking its various themes and reflecting on what it all means in this current moment.
We talk New Antisemitism, anti-zionism, and the Left's purported 'Muslim problem'.
+ We also fit the following in:
Journey through a strange land
World War 3
"Outsider research"
When your identity is often also your work
Palestine as a 'left wing' cause
Rise of Judaeo-Christian unity
We are the quota
The globalised West's "Muslim problem"
The globalised West's "Arab problem"
Avoiding conversations
The rebranding of Palestinian resistance
The 'coalition of the willing'
Dehumanising narratives
Joe Biden *sigh*
Zohran Mamdani, Brad Lander and Stephen Colbert
'Middle-classification'
'Political Blackness'
"Islamist cranks"
Islam and antisemitism
You should listen to The Trojan Horse Affair
The redefining of antisemitism
The redefining of antizionism
We're all we got.
