Late Capitalism: Are We Already Experiencing The Post-Apocalypse?

Join us on Youtube, August 25, 2020, and forever after, for Revolutionary Socialist Review. On Revolutionary Socialist Review, we discuss news, events, history, and Marxist theory with a revolutionary socialist, Marxist-Leninist perspective.

On this episode, Rainer Shea and Chris Driscoll offer a revolutionary socialist analysis of the news, the last week’s headlines and Marxist-Leninist theory:

1. Late-stage capitalism deprives us of meaning. Class struggle lets us find meaning;

2. US threatens ‘to block Russia and China’ if they disregard illegal US sanctions against Iran;

3. If Trump Had Followed Vietnam’s Lead on COVID, US Would Have Fewer Than 100 Dead;

4. Senate Intelligence Committee promotes Russiagate Hoax with new report. NYT and WAPO join in the frenzy to push the lies;

5. The plan for maintaining the liberal order: acclimate the masses to endless war & austerity;

6. TikTok's parent company announces lawsuit against U.S. government, says People’s Daily:

7. Richard D. Wolff – Socialist or Capitalist—What Is China’s Model, Exactly?

8. You can’t be anti-imperialist while repeating lies about anti-imperialist countries.
