Episode 33: The Racist Kinky Chair Saga

Jen tells the story of the 'racist kinky chair' that split a socialist group, a premonition of how the declining and dilapidated far-Left would increasingly operate in the Global North. Episode also features discussion of Lacan's famous line 'there is no such thing as a sexual relationship', Butler's justification of pornography through deconstructionism, misunderstandings of Wittig's 'lesbians aren't women', and how polyamory results in treating sexual partners like products. We finish on the alienation present in transgenderism and inside the neoliberal workplace, where people are treated as subjects to be commodified to the greatest extent possible.
