Some of you may know Jason from a podcast called "This Is Revolution" (  @THISISREVOLUTIONpodcast  ), a great show that I have recently been on to talk about Controlled Opposition. Jason recently released the short mini-book titled “I Was a Teenage Anarchist,” which talks about the politics of Punk Rock in the 1980s and its relation to the culture of the Western left. In this conversation, we talk about how the 80s Punk Rock Radicalism compared to the 60s counterculture and how the contemporary left post-Bernie Sanders echoes many of the problems of the left of the 80s and 90s.

I learned a lot from talking to them, and by bringing them on 1Dime Radio, I am sure my listeners will learn quite a lot as well. We talk about the state of Mexican politics and provide a historical overview of the context leading up to Mexico’s New Leftist President Claudia Sheinbaum and her predecessor AMLO (Andrés Manuel López Obrador), the former president and leader of the same Center-Left Party (Morena). In the Backroom exclusive segment on Patreon, we talk about the recent elections in Venezuela and the Latin American Left more broadly, as well as how the Mexican government compares to the other left-of-center “pink tide” governments of Latin America, such as Maduro’s Venezuelan government, Lula’s Brazil, Gustavo Pedro in Columbia, and Gabriel Boric in Chile.

Get access to The Backroom Exclusive podcasts by becoming a Patron: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/OneDime⁠ In this spicy episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Simone & Malcolm Collins, known as the “pronatalist” power couple who went viral following media attacks on “The Pronatalist Movement” - a response to the global fertility crisis and how birth rates are rapidly declining everywhere, especially in Asia and Latin America. Malcolm and Simone Collins host the podcast called “Based Camp” and are the founders of “The Pragmatist Institute.” Together, they have published multiple books, such as “The Pragmatist's Guide to Crafting Religion” (Being the only one I read). Simone & Malcolm Collins consider themselves to be part of “The New Right” - a pro-tech progressive conservative movement that is anti-racist, pluralistic, tolerant of sexuality, yet pro-religion and quite socially conservative for today’s standards. So, full disclosure: even though Malcolm & Simone Collins are quite unconventional conservatives, they still see themselves as part of the Right and are trying to reform the Republican party. In this episode, after getting Simone & Malcolm Collins to clarify their political positions, I try to challenge views on Capitalism, Socialism, and contemporary American politics in general. In The Backroom on Patreon, I challenge Malcolm Collins’s views on the modern Conservative movement and his belief that the Republican Party is the lesser evil.

It was used in Ancient Athens and for a time also in the Republics of Florence, Venice and Genoa.  Sortition is not the same thing as “direct democracy,”  such as assembly (which was also used in Athenian Democracy). The Marxist Paul Cockshott also proposes the sortition system in his book, “Towards a New Socialism.”  In The Backroom, Victor proposes his own variant of sortition, which he has been working on, which I found quite fascinating and innovative.
