In Episode 7, we're joined by Aloiso Wilmoth, also known by his stage name He Valencia (and his IG handle moma.ps5), a techno DJ, socialist, and cultural commentator from the United States. We talk about the mess that is woke Instagram, the rise of hardcore racial essentialism on the identitarian 'left', and the deep need for materialist politics. We also get into issues like solidarity vs allyship and what the place of humour is in resisting the famously sanctimonious Nexus.
