Rightwing Populism and the Poisonous Politics of Permanent Outrage
Update: 2021-08-24
Description
Like Covid, populism cannot be reasoned with. It dresses itself in slogans. It's fixated on outrage. It won’t be won over by facts. It’s inherently suspicious of expertise. It wallows in conspiracy theories. And it's been with us for a long time.
Populism can present itself as both right- and leftwing varieties, but the most dangerous version is fascism, which is a key topic in the A Nazi on Wall Street story. We join Dr. Jay Weixelbaum and EJ Russo to discuss the corrosive politics of populism with expert Dr. David Walsh. Tune in!
