Ep 174 - War Is A Defeat For All Of Us w/ Alex Gendler
The Antifada - A podcast by Sean KB and AP Andy

Friend of the show and Ukrainian immigrant Alex Gendler (@achilleselbow) discusses the Russian invasion of Ukraine, situating it in its proper historical context before discussing more recent events. He also takes some time to debunk galaxy brain takes from dumb dumb anti-imperialists who think a "multipolar" world — with neoliberal, authoritarian Russia as one of the poles — will somehow bring us closer to communism.
