Episode description

Streamer and housing activist AmyeC3 joins the boys (@djtomhanks & @_TonyWestside) for a long talk about housing, activism, and online political subcultures. 

  • She gives us her origin story and we compare it to Tony's journey away from centrism, trading insights about deprogramming liberals
  • We touch on the wisdom and timelessness of the immortal science of Marxism, and praise our nuanced takes on ideological labels
  • We consider impediments to decommodifying housing, and the ways COVID is tied into the problems plaguing our cities
  • Normalizing America's brutal perspective on land/property ownership
  • NIMBYism and Landlord Radicals 
  • Gentrification
  • College Snobs
  • Our Favorite Conspiracy Theories

There's obviously much more, and hit up our Patreon for part 2 of the conversation later this week where we go into depth about the nitty gritty housing problems plaguing the country, Amy's substack, and the villainous Debate Bros poisoning online politics. Our conversation was so great we decided to make it a weekly workshop on legal problems facing tenants around the country. Join us for FIRE every Wednesday night on Amy's stream at 10pm eastern. When that's over, you can join Matt & Tony every night around 11:30 est at the Unelectable Airwaves twitch stream where we talk about overthrowing governments, hating the cia, and achieving star trek communism. twitch.tv/UnelectableAirwaves
