Ep 146: A Beginning

I finish this version of the program with a review and consideration via different sources of what a robust Left politics needs. I cover the end of the Marxist Center; A call to draw sides, and revisit a theory of Revolution taking both workers and professionals rejecting their role in the capitalist order.
In the 2nd Half I focus on a reading about Game Changing, (the system is a game) and wrap up with reviews of the principles of commons management, then the meaning of Social Ecology, a reminder of the need to take the ‘3 Lefts’ together.
