In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Ben Burgis (@BenBurgisGTAA), author of “Give Them An Argument: Logic for the Left” and “Canceling Comedians While the World Burns: A Critique Of The Contemporary Left. We talk about the lessons of the left should learn from the 2024 election and the past decade, the right-left distinction, and Ben’s experience going on The Joe Rogan Podcast. In The Backroom (on Patreon), Ben and I talk about Bluesky, the capitalist power dynamics of Cancel Culture, and the “Suicide of the Left.” Become a Patron at Patreon.com/OneDime if you haven’t already done so!
