Catherine Liu: Liberalism is Dead

Описание: Get access to The Backroom (80+ exclusive episodes) on Patreon:   / onedime  

In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined again by Professor Catherine Liu, author of the Book “Virtue Horders,” to talk about the recent victory of Zohran Mamdani, the crisis of the Democratic Party, liberalism as ideology of decay, and her upcoming book on Trauma Culture and why everyone in liberal America suddenly identifies as “traumatized” and how that shapes politics, morality, and everyday life.

In the Backroom exclusive segment on Patreon, Catherine and I discuss the potential impact of AI on the PMC (Professional Managerial Class), liberal parenting, and have a lot of fun roasting liberal-leftists.
