About this episode
TENE interviews the 'Antifa Guy' himself, Mark Bray, to ruminate on the phenomenon of anti-fascism in America and Europe since the timely publication of his book Antifa: and Anti Fascist Handbook following Charlottesville in 2017. He elaborates on the history and limitations of the term 'antifa' itself and comments on ludicrous attempts to connect it to everything from the Capitol Riots to California forest fires. Mark examines the transition from the so-called 'Alt-Right' to Qanon and more terroristic groups and the crew meditates on the differences between coalitions, fronts, and assemblies in confronting such developments. They also discuss left critiques of anti-fascism and its intertwining with mutual aid and anarchist efforts in the US. Also featured: armed Antifa, media spectacle, Tucker Carlson, and Mark handles some inane calls from 'listeners'.
This is The Empire Never Ended, the Antifascist Amerikanski-Balkan podcast about (neo) fascist terror, the (deep) state and the alienation, nihilism and desperation produced by the capitalist system. And how to get rid of all that. Something like that...
