Join me for an episode about how obscene the casual celebration of violence towards Iran, Gaza, Muslims in general has been lately (shockingly, Sam Harris comes up).

This is a clip from my recent episode - Aftershow 12: It was Always About Civil Rights

In this clip we talk about the politicization of things like the global pandemic, the genocide in Gaza - these issues should really be large enough to break through across the political spectrum, yet… they don’t. We are starting to see some people on the right speak out against the genocide more recently, but it’s a small number.

We also touch upon Sam Harris and his promotion of ‘race science’.
