Adorno and Nu Atheism s2e1

Breht from Revolutionary Left Radio continues the discussion from our roundtable episode featuring Coffee With Comrades cohosts Mel and Pearson, and this time I talk about the collective unconscious and how it appears to us,  and we drill down on the cult of rationality that created the New Atheist  movement and its role in promoting Islamophobia over criticism of other religions, and their support of the US wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. We also discuss how those reactionary ideas of rationality were found earlier in Theodor Adorno's essay 'Theses Against Occultism' published in his book The Stars Down to Earth and other essays on the irrational in culture
