The Protestant Libertarian PodcastEp 138: American Marxism with Noah KhrachvikIn this episode, I talk with Noah Khrachvik, a Marxist and co-director of the Midwestern Marx Institute. He explains the dialectics of Marxism and why true Marxists are inherently populist. He demonstrates that Marxism is different from both postmodernism and critical theory, and why the American left has sold out their principles. We then have a long discussion about the Federal reserve, the military-industrial complex, and the Covid regime where he explains why communists should be against all of them. We also discuss the chaotic 2024 election cycle and the future of the United States. There is a surprising amount...

Kiko's Freethinker's ForumEpisode 54: Carlos Garrido talks Socialism, Cuba and The Purity Fetish and Crisis of Western Marxism
Carlos L. Garrido, author of the book The Purity Fetish and the Crisis of Western Marxism and co-founder of the Midwestern Marx Institute, joins the Forum to discuss his book's premise of the Western Marxist's "purity fetish" which dates back to the Eleatic school of Greek philosophy. Garrido argues that the goal should be to transition from a PMC (professional managerial class) Left to a working class centered left; moreover, he elaborates that there are already subjective and objective conditions that facilitate revolutionary potential.
