Hello, friends!
It's Monday on the East Coast, so that means the new episode of Incessantly Human is live wherever podcasts are streamed!
This week Aaron and I read Angela Nagle's 2017 book Kill All Normies: Online Culture Wars from 4chan and Tumblr to Trump and the Alt-Right. Our discussion revolves how the extreme right takes advantage of the contemporary crisis of masculinity to radicalize young men toward misogynistic and White supremacist politics.
(I also recommend our episode on social media and this video on incels ("involuntarily celibates") by Natalie Wynn if you're interested in exploring some of the darker corners of the online alt-right.)
We're back next week to round out our rereading of the Harry Potter saga with Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows, so stay tuned!
Much love, --Tom
