Here in the Boston Commune, we interpret the tumultuous churn of modernity through a Marxist lens. Episodes alternate between analyses of current events -- from the hyperlocal to the international -- and narrations of theoretical texts by communists and anti-imperialists the world over. This project was birthed in a mental health working group during the pandemic and continues in true DIY fashion, without any advertisements or monetization (save for a few generous patrons). Hard to believe, we know; for it is, after all, the Epoch of Incredulity. #Marx #Lenin #Mao #Socialism #Communism

=============================

Episode 130: Crawling Peg

=============================

This episode, recorded on March 5th, 2024, features commentary from comrades Scott, Joe, Chava, and myself.

CONTENT WARNING FOR SUICIDE, as we dive into the self-immolation of Aaron Bushnell, and responses to it by law enforcement, the American military-industrial complex, the Palestinian resistance, the neoliberal press, left-wing youtubers, and ourselves, of course, in addition to detailing the pathological false consciousness intended to undermine radical collective action. We also discuss plane-seeking tornadoes; developments from the Palestinian front lines; ICC charges against Western war criminals; the Argentine implosion; local developments both good and bad; and the Texan ass bandit; finally closing out with some southwestern slamming desert death.

Above all, enjoy your epoch.
