THEN: Some Democratic voters turn to conspiracy theory after the fallout of Harris's presidential loss. Did you know Elon Musk is a billionaire with multiple government contracts...?

PLUS: The grotesque menagerie of cabinet appointments announced by past and future president Trump leads the dissident right to proclaim "finally, the adults are back in charge."

ALSO: The myriad ways in which "anti-war" Trump supporters are dove-washing the explicitly pro-war, neoconservative officials with whom he surrounds himself.

Previous Episode

#670 If there was no social media, you would be my concubines.

TODAY: We check out the right-wing reaction to Trump's win which is unfortunately hyper-fixated on assault, and ponder the hetero-flexibility that occurs in politically destabilized zones.

PLUS: Trump voters' daddy issues are still on display, this time via the Man Shed facebook page

AND: Staten Island Ferry workers' contract win + backpay enrages New York Post, commenters, twitter hashtag lawyers.

Music:

Purity Filter - Wisteria Awakens

Artificial Brain - Graveyard of Lightless Planets

Tony Williams - Fred

#672 "There's no such thing as 'predatory pricing.' That's a liberal construct."

TODAY: We say goodbye to a normal world as the show initiates the Peak Season Option and goes patreon-only for the rest of the year. (patreon.com/miniondeathcult)

ALSO: Bernie Sanders betrays the left by working to lower credit card interest rates... with Trump??

PLUS: "Anarchist" and Libertarian arguments for supporting these major financial institutions

FINALY: US Postal Workers are in the middle of "contract negotiations" in which their abysmally weak union wants them to accept a ~1% pay raise and further entrenchment of horrible working conditions.

We discuss some of those working conditions, discuss an active Vote No campaign, look back at the history of successful wildcat strikes and the possibility of one today, and address the continuous propaganda campaign against these workers and the USPS as a whole.

Music:

Kid Killowat- The Scope

Enumclaw- Change
