revisiting: the SUPERSTRUCTURE episode
Been occasionally going back to old bits – anyone remember this SUPERSTRUCTURE ep feat our boy? (I guess there's a new podcast also with the same name?)
depressingly prescient considering it is from 2020. Like a bad author's heavy handed foreshadowing. Matt straight up says he doesn't know why he needs to comment since we'll see if he is right with Joe's election... no surprises in this sub that he was.
Besides cohost "Natalie's" insistence on trying to prevent Matt from finishing a thought, still a fun listen. Proto abundists trying to convince Matt that they "really really are lefties" and trying to give "strike" and "riot" examples of their praxis bona fides while simultaneously missing and proving Matt's point about DSA cosplay.
on the flip side it looks like Matt was wrong about the impossibility of decoupling either party from "zero sum" monetary theory since we are watching in real time the Repubs operate as if they believed in MMT
