Hate Yachts, Not Dinghies: Class, Control & Political Punk with Hyphen
Description
What if the same coercive control you grew up with in your family is playing out on a societal scale—and no one’s supposed to name it?
In this unapologetically raw episode, I’m joined by political punk artist Hyphen to call out the hidden systems most people are too afraid to touch. We unpack classism, manufactured consent, and how we’ve all been programmed to blame individuals instead of broken structures.
Hyphen shares how losing a close friend, burning out in finance, and growing up as the child of Indian immigrants shaped his activism—and how political punk gave him a voice loud enough to be heard.
We get into:
- Why being angry is the only sane response to injustice
- The truth about “freedom” under capitalism
- How systems mirror abusive family dynamics
- Why 3.5% of people are all it takes to ignite change
- And how slogans like “Hate Yachts, Not Dinghies” can become rallying cries for a generation
This one is for the misfits, the scapegoats, the question-askers.
This is Dysfunctional. And we’re not here to behave.
