EP 14: SHIFT ALT RIGHT CLIQUE (Joshua Citarella)

Feat. artist and social theorist JOSHUA CITARELLA who has been
exploring how deep online spaces have evolved over the past few
years, shaping popular politics in turn — especially among younger
people. Last fall when we spoke to Joshua (ep. 6), he had just
published a long-form piece on Politigram and the Post-Left. In
this ep, we talk to him about his most recent essay, "Irony
Politics & Gen Z" (published on New Models this spring),
discussing the funnel of online radicalization and what tactics the
left needs to consider for more effective off-ramping. For more:
