On this Thanksgiving edition of Parallax Views we invite you to ditch watching the football game after trying not to kill your relative during that turkey dinner and instead listen to cultural commentator Mike Crumplar aka m.crumps discuss the weird end of twitter and the darkest fringe corners of online political discourse. Among the topics covered are the alt right, Kantbot, the homoerotic underpinnings of an oddball reactionary called Bronze Age Pervert, Mike's Lacanian psychoanalytic turn, incels and Eliot Rodger's, the tension between Mike's left politics and coverage of alt right weirdness, and much more.
