Nostalgia Trap - Episode 275: The Murder is the Message w/ Danny Bessner (PREVIEW)
Update: 2021-05-21
Description
This week we talk about the political and social economy of "first person shooter" video games with Danny Bessner, whose recent piece in The Drift investigates the deep cultural contradictions at play in the enormously popular Call of Duty franchise. With armies of alienated young men casting themselves as protagonists in deeply distorted narratives of 20th century history, we explore the lines between harmless entertainment, violent brainwashing, and military propaganda.
