Eric Draitser interviewed me for an episode of his Stop Imperialism podcast series on Patreon. The full podcast (almost two hours) is available to Patreon subscribers, while the first half is available for free. Here's Eric's description of the discussion: This time on the podcast Eric welcomes author and researcher Matthew Lyons
to the show to discuss the "Alt-Right," and how it relates to our
politics today and in the future. The conversation begins with a
discussion of what the alt-right is, and where it came from both
intellectually, and in terms of its online evolution. From there, Eric
and Matthew discuss everything from the terminology to the alt-right's
discourse on women, culture, biology, race, politics, religion, and so
much more.
The second half of the show explores the role of
Donald Trump in mainstreaming the alt-right, and its relationship to
international forces ranging from #Putin's
Russia to active and nascent fascist movements throughout Europe. Eric
and Matthew explore how the alt-right could potentially develop in the
future, and what that means for #antifascists,
and society generally. This in depth conversation goes down every
rabbit hole, and explores myriad aspects of this complex and dangerous
movement called the alt-right. Don't miss it!
