Been loving the lo-fi chillhop patriotic tunes in the transitions this entire series

Peter Castello

Matt's monologue from 2:02-15:22 is sooo good. Such an eloquent but accessible summation of US political history.

Xander Norris

fuck what is the song after Matt says we’re slaves to mammon

The Know Your Enemy guys recently put out an episode on Garry Wills' "Bomb Power," and its kind of crazy how much their insights match hell of prezzies. Nerds

I've been trying to build class consciousness for my 13 year old son. We are homeschooling for various reasons, can I get a transcript of these episodes so I can radicalize him even further 😀😆 I'd like to build homework off of these episodes coupled with other works.

Matt is amazing.

Donald

That's sick. This and Matt's Cush Vlogs are a great place to start tbh.

The Steel Harvest

Love seeing other people teaching the lens to their kids early.

This series is so good. Some of the drops of the theme give chills. Really well done. Have listened through it multiple times. bravo Chris and Matt. I hope one day you’re able to start again. No. Not hope. I will be optimistic. Matt will post himself back into form. The mind will repair itself.

Thanks! NGL, I was a bit apprehensive to mention we were homeschooling, as the leftist view of homeschooling is fairly poor, because it's mostly right wing flat earthers that are purposefully teaching their children incorrectly. Lol.

NostromoDreams

Thanks! Matt is so fucking insightful man. My son is currently learning early North American history up to 1877, so this podcast jives really well.

The excerpt of Reagan's speach at 33:14 made my blood boil. All the pain and suffering of so many thousands of people rotting in prison and economically abandoned neighborhoods in the years and decades following that moment of time is so immense. Such a disgusting ideaology paraded as morally righteous and good.

NostromoDreams

I was just talking about this, literally 5 minutes ago, I'm an 1hr27 minutes in and I wanted to have my wife listen to the speech and was about to go digging for it. Thank you posting the exact time stamp. Yeah, it's pretty fucking unreal that somehow this idea prevailed.

Smackledorf

Same! Absolute moral decay!

Steele Partridge

Actual insanity. Hell cannot be bad enough for the people responsible for it.

Wario Argento

Rewinding to 59:26 repeatedly just to hear the Wilhelm scream

Ryan

First 15 minute summary of the whole series was transcendent

Fernando

Depeche Mode playing here. I didn’t expect that. Great episode

To me neo liberalism is being socially liberal but fiscally conservative. A Neo Lib sees you, they hear you, but they ain't doing shit for you. Especially if it means spending their own money or resources

Nicaragua mentioned 🫵🏽 I remember when I was little my mom made my brother and I watch Reagan's funeral. My mom starved for weeks while the Contra invaded Managua. Hope he's watching Nancy choke on Satan

Mark Schneider

The Ruling Class's full scale drive to destroy the USA and make it neo-feudal comes to a head at this time. Reagan culture warred that he didn't like the n----s, Mexicans, etc. War on Drugs, War on the Poor, Yes, Amerikka is Great again!! (For a very few.) Oh, & the rise of Bible banging & fetus fan clubs. I was 20 when Reagan was elected. I'd already hated the Empire since seeing friends' older brothers come back from Vietnam. Reagan strengthened the Leftism that Nixon's thuggish whinging had ignited in me.

Sean Curtis

This episode has been my favourite so far!! It's been really interesting to learn as a non-American, and when Matt presents, something just clicks. Loving the production, you both have put so much into this and it's most appreciated. Get well soon Matt, can't wait to have you back <3

2 Cool Bad Actors trivia bits-- 1. Antony Blinken was the young moron campaign adviser who got Dukakis into that tank and helped tank his election run. 2. The best joke about the Clinton Admin, "What was the Clinton admin called?" "Sex between the Bushes."

Christian Kaiser

56 minutes in, “Reagan’s anti-communist alliance in the 80s is the Legion of Doom” all-time needle drop. Holy shit this segment is so good, please clip on the yt channel Chris

The Children of Jack Acid

Sounds amazing! Good luck! You might also get a lot of value out of their "Hell on Earth: The Thirty Years' War and the Violent Birth of Capitalism" collection, which also comes with handy, interactive maps! https://hellonearth.chapotraphouse.com/ P.S. Please don't teach your kid that vaccines cause autism.

Dole was kansas senator

So much re-listen value here.

Karl Hungus

Gotta update this episode to include Trump being shot at lol

Nico

“This affair would be the indelible stain” - great pun there

Shaun

“Before we pull out of the Bush” got me real good lmao Such an incredible episode and series.
