Shayne Hunter (

@ShayneHunter

) is a comedian and ex-leader of radical left wing group, Antifa in Australia.

He’s probably one of the most intelligent and intense comedians I’ve ever come across. He’s floated in and out of ideology over the last few years - initially a right wing libertarian, then an anarchist/leftist radical and now a steadfast libertarian pushing people to not fall into identify politics.


Shayne is socially aware and poignant in his analysis of society, a benefit to anyone wanting to learn more about group-think or ideology.


This is a brilliant lesson in how people can be sucked into cabbaging their minds about belief, ideology and cults. Most of my time was spent getting out of Shayne’s way, letting him explain the journey and ideology of the radical left - the group he believes is ideologically more dangerous than ISIS.


Key topics we covered:

Cognitive biases


The education system & conformity experiments


Conspiracies theories and ideologies


Procrastination


Antifa, his involvement, and gratitude


The radical-left ideologies


Critical theory and postmodernism


Normalising Neo-Marxism


Defining the radical left/right


The Outrage-Industrial Complex


Advice for ideologues
