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 131 - Piss-Poor Design

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

EOI 131 -- Piss Poor Design

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

Hello again! This episode, recorded on March 19th, 2024, features commentary from comrades Chava, Joe, and myself. We cover the "suicide" of Boeing whistleblower John Barnett, the 737 MAX engineer who outright refused to fly on the 737 MAX, still more atrocities committed against the Palestinian people in the weeks preceding the ceasefire resolution, the sweet irony of Yemen's assault on the United States, the absurd movie plot playing out in NATO and the European Union, the ejection of US forces from Niger, and the arrest of a "ballsy" former political candidate, as it were. Slams hit so hard this time they scrambled my brain.
