Gender, Politics, and the New Right w/ Mana Afsari

Cracks in Postmodernity

In this episode of the ⁠⁠⁠Viral Cure: Making sense of internet discourse ⁠⁠⁠series, ⁠⁠⁠Stephen joins Research Associate at Aspen Philosophy & Society Mana Afsari, who has written several compelling essays about gender, politics, and internet discourse. We discuss: * the ways that internet forums influence discourse on gender identity * how current US political figures are shaping men's sense of identity and social function * Mana's tools for moving past reactive discourse on the internet, engaging with the stories we read more critically, and recognizing the human element hidden within ideological platitudes Thanks to Interintellect for hosting our salon! https://interintellect.com/ Subscribe to the Substack: https://cracksinpomo.substack.com
