On Dirtbag and the Millennial Left.

Bungacast regular Amber A'Lee Frost is back to talk about her new book, Dirtbag — part memoir, part critical essays on millennial socialism. In this episode we discuss:

  • Why "millennial"? Does it make sense to talk in generational terms?
  • What are the left's "perversions" as Amber sees them?
  • 'Occupy' was all leaderless, horizontalist crap. Why did Amber stick around?
  • Bernie Sanders did not leave an organizational legacy – why?
  • After the failure of left-populism, in US and Europe, was it all worth it?

Holy damn. Amber really nails it with "necrophilia". It's the Dana Horn phenomenon for the labor movement. "People love dead workers."

Felt personally attacked when she described socialists as useless nerds with no friends.
