Episode 38: How We Got to the Repeal of Roe v Wade

In this episode I talk about the repeal of Roe v Wade by the Supreme Court, and how this seemingly out of nowhere extreme right wing shift became inevitable once the Democratic Party made certain choices in 2016. I also talk about how identity politics is used by the bourgeoisie in ways that are increasingly absurd to everyone except them, and at the end of the episode I give a bit of history about the bourgeoisie and how they conceive of themselves, and how Wokeness and identity politics relates to that.
