It's important to remember that just because listening to podcasts feels like you're part of a conversation with friends, that does not mean you have to be deeply concerned with their inter-podcast drama.

Antifada just released an episode with Sophie Wiener about her new techno (music) socialist zine called the Plurletariat and it's pretty cool. They go over some of the politics involved and go over that as well. Techno is good and I'm glad someone is trying to keep it from being too elitist like most genres get.

I'm on board with banishing Louis CK from society -- he's got more money than he'll ever need. But what do you do about normal people who crime?

This specific scenario being talked about necessarily has the person who did the sexual harassment be far above their victims in terms of power. The cable guy scenario is not at all applicable.

Yes, and the issue with workplace safety is about a guy with way more power than his victims being let back in. I don't see how this is an issue to understand.

I think that when Kath started trying to lay out general principles for how to deal with dick-out situations, she was overbroad.

I mean even in that tweet the assumption is that the dude has power over his coworkers by virtue of being recognized as the best in the world. It's not a great analog to real life but it works, kinda.

That said, under capitalism there will be no way to protect their potential coworkers and also provide a satisfying answer to "how do we make sure the guy can still make a living?" So all that can really be argued is which you find more important.

Yes, it would be bad if people did that thing you're imagining.

Also if the dude specifically targeted their coworkers and nothing at all was really done about it, uh, yeah they probably shouldn't be around.

I look forward to the episode in like a few months when Bhakskar Sunkara gets another solo interview with Amber to suddenly remember a story on how someone called the UK Immigration Service on his home and recalls taking care of the agents with his on the spot rhetoric and word finesse, doing more about it than his twitter critics.
