Previous Episode: Episode 3: Base and Superstructure

Next Episode: Episode 5: Analyzing the Boogaloo

Episode 4 digs deeper into Marx & Gramsci's Superstructure by analyzing concepts of Moral Panics, Stochastic Terrorism, and Sensation & Novelty Seeking Behaviour.

We examine how the Media and Ruling class create systems to radicalize normal folks into becoming reactionary racists, bootlickers, and fascists.

Finally, we use clips of Alex Jones, Fox News, and more to demonstrate how the mass media uses fake news to make big money and push the overton window farther to the right.
