Techno Feudalism
1Dime Radio
06/13/22 • 100 min
Is Capitalism dead? Are we in what Yanis Varoufakis calls "Techno-Feudalism" ? Or are just moving to a new stage of neoliberal capitalism, such as "Platform Capitalism" (a term coined by Nick Srnicek in his book Platform Capitalism)? In this episode of the 1DIme Radio podcast, I am joined by Ed from the Podcast called "A New Conversation" which you can find linked below. Ed and I have done multiple podcast together related to Political Economy and in this episode, we analyze Yanis Varoufakis's bold claim we are no longer in Capitalism, but a new system called "TechnoFeudalism.'
Varoufakis made this claim in his viral speech with Slavoj Žižek. You can find the link to a clip of it below: https://youtu.be/Ghx0sq_gXK4
In this podcast, we also discuss the book "Capital is Dead' by Mckenzie Wark and ponder if Marx's analysis of capitalism is still relevant in today's age of platform capitalism.

Solarpunk, Anarchism and Post-Work
1Dime Radio
08/19/21 • 66 min
For this episode I am joined by Andrew from the YouTube channel Saint Andrewism. We talk about the meaning of Solarpunk and its relationship with anarchism and libertarian communism. We discuss how solarpunk and post-capitalism tie into the notion of "post-work" (aka the liberation from the work as a necessity and the division of labor. We both emphasize the need for imagining new innovative post-capitalist futures rather than being stuck in the past.

Simulacra and Simulation
1Dime Radio
11/23/21 • 74 min
Show Notes:
This 1Dime Radio episode featuring David from the YouTube channel/podcast Theory & Philosophy is about the post modern theorist Jean Baudrillard (the "high priest of postmodernism") and his highly misunderstood concepts of Simulation, Hyperreality, Illusion, and the nature of reality. David is an academic who has wrote extensively about Baudrillard and has covered most of Baudrillard's texts on his podcast and channel Theory & Philosophy (such as Simulacra and Simulation , The Perfect Crime , Symbolic Exchange and death , etc..).
Baudrillard is often associated with The Matrix film (which he did not think highly of), but he is a highly misunderstood thinker and most YouTube videos and podcasts seem to get a lot of his core ideas completely wrong, such as the faux "Simulation vs Reality" distinction. David and I attempt the difficult task of trying to break down Baudrillard's ideas in simple terms and debunk misunderstandings about them. But WARNING: This stuff will sound very confusing at first if you are not familiar with postmodern theory.

Liberalism: A Counter History

Today I discuss the dark history of Liberalism with Melody from @A World To Win. We discuss key findings from historian Domenico Losurdo's book "Liberalism: A Counter History" , which discusses the true economic motives behind the classical liberal project and its direct connection to slavery.

1Dime Radio is back! This episode will be on the popular topic of Accelerationism, particularly the "right-wing" Accelerationism of Nick Land.

For this episode, Tony (1Dime) is joined by Michael Downs (Mikey), an independent researcher and author of the famous philosophy and critical theory blog called The Dangerous Maybe and is about to teach a course on the theories of Nick Land, Deleuze and Guattari, and Emannuel Kant at Theory Underground, and David McKerracher (Dave), founder of Theory Underground, an educational platform for learning theory, and publishing house for organic intellectuals or aspiring theorists who pursue theory and philosophy outside of academia, or people with academic backgrounds who don't want to be restricted by academic fetters, i.e. renegade academics.
Theory Underground provides fantastic courses which you can sign up for at a very affordable price, and has recently released the book Underground Theory Vol 1 (which includes some big names like Slavoj Zizek and some smaller names like Dave, Mikey, AND myself (I have an essay on the cultural revolution in there!. Both Mikey and Dave are working-class organic intellectuals who have published works of theory. I highly recommend checking them out.
