The patron Q&A is here! Thanks to all of you who asked questions and joined in on the YouTube live stream. I think we all had a lot of fun. Let me know if you'd like me to do this format more often. Topics covered: Can Warren win? What do we do if she does? Should we run an independent socialist? What are my feelings on David Graeber? How has the prosperity and "hustle" gospel impacted young minds? What organizations are doing good work in the US? Is Warren a New Deal Democrat? And much, much more. --> Become a patron to support DPS Media and receive the entire B-Side: http://www.patreon.com/deadpundits ---------------- Twitter: www.twitter.com/deadpundits Facebook: www.facebook.com/deadpunditssociety iTunes: www.itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/id1212081214 YouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCHahv2fM9eH2K4TzmsWl\_Xg

Ben Burgis, author of Give Them An Argument (Zero Books, 2018), joins us to dissect the emerging liberal-progressive media consensus that the Sanders-Warren debate can be best characterized by "distinctions without differences." How did this Warren campaign talking point become the media status quo, how do we assess Warren's recent rise in the polls, and how should democratic socialists debate with liberals and progressives?
