Description

Our guest today is Jake Klein, a libertarian activist and author who has written about the dangers of identity politics and tribalism.

Klein, who was raised in an Orthodox Jewish household and is now atheist, talks about his path in life. We talk about the unproductive nature of many pro-Palestinian activists on the far left, the hypocrisy of many supposed “heterodox thinkers” and why we have come to reject any kind of racial or ethnic category. We also chat about the downfall of the Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism, Inc., a group we hoped would help serve as the answer to weaponized identity politics.

Klein’s Substack is called The Black Sheep and he’s on X. Please give him a follow. And if you enjoyed this live podcast, please consider paid subscription to support our work.
