Anti-imperialism and the left
OP - November 17, 2019, 02:40 PM

Podcast discussing the problems with the approach of a large part of the left to anti-imperialism and how this plays out with the rise of social media.

In September, Ahmed spoke to Joey Ayoub, Lebanese writer and researcher, about tankies, genocide denial, red-brown alliances and the uncomfortable affinity between large parts of the political left and authoritarianism.

Which side are you on?

I am seeing the distribution of a disturbing Tankie letter, essentially against #IranProtests (with a lot of 'anti-imperialist' phraseology of course) signed by a lot of big names in academia.

Let them write their letters. The Iranian people will not forget or forgive.

so much of academia has become a self-perpetuating network of narcissists who couldn't be bothered with how other states work and how other states repress people. It's not difficult to oppose the sanctions without throwing actual protesters under the bus. It really isn't.

Which side are you on?
