It also asks the difficult question of how best to reckon with past sins, especially when their impact in the present is a matter of life and death.

John Walker thinks there's heroism in empty vengeance, whereas Sam and Bucky find a much more meaningful version in the little things. The Delacroix community finds it in the goodness of the Wilson family, which they reward with their own small acts of heroism. But Isaiah Bradley's story is a monument to the hard truth that many heroes never get the chance to tell their own stories; instead, they're tortured...

In response to charges that Marx’s value theory and falling-rate-of-profit theory are logically invalid––leveled with increasing stridency in the late 1970s and early 1980s––Andrew and others independently discovered the TSSI and thereby showed that the logical errors attributed to Marx are actually created by his critics’ misinterpretations.

Spiritual LifeStylePostpartum Anxiety with Amanda MarcotteIn this episode, Amanda shares her motherhood journey with postpartum anxiety. Like most first time mothers, she worried about her baby and felt a little blue at times but nothing to suggest depression, so her symptoms went unreported.

PPA is not common, its estimated that 17% of moms experience it and often goes untreated for years because they are unaware that this is not "normal mom life". So i...

2018-04-2403 minGive and TakeEpisode 100: Troll Nation, with Amanda MarcotteThe election of Donald Trump in 2016, like most of his campaign, came as a shock to many Americans. In Troll Nation Amanda Marcotte argues that Trump's election was the inevitable result of American conservatism’s degradation into an ideology of blind resentment. For years now, she contends, the purpose of right wing media, particularly Fox News, has not been to argue for traditional conservative ideals, such as small government or even family values, so much as to stoke bitterness and paranoia in its audience. Traditionalist white people have lost control over the culture, and they know it, and the on...

Salon Mix"They came for the nerd girls first": The price of ignoring GamergateFeminist writers and writers of color experienced extreme online harassment during the years leading up to the 2016 election, when the so-called alt-right then turned its efforts to supporting Donald Trump's campaign for the presidency. Writer Laurie Penny, author of the new book of essays "Bitch Doctrine," and Salon's Amanda Marcotte discuss why the pushback to identity politics on the left is misguided, the surge of the so-called alt-right, and why online harassment against feminists and people of color should have been taken seriously from the start.
