American Identity Crisis w/John Ganz

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.nefariousrussians.comWe talk to John Ganz about how the USA began to unravel in the 1990s, when it no longer had the USSR to keep things in check. This 90s identity crisis has gained momentum and is playing out today with the rise of Donald Trump, the crisis of liberalism, and the push to go back to a pre-New Deal America.  Some of the things we discuss include: The USA and USSR being a single meta political entity, with one influencing the other and both now lurching back to 19th century… Israel as a colonial policeman for America and zionist delusions about Israel’s sovereignty... American liberals and progressives having their own Soviet nostalgia moment… Libertarianism, the conservative movement, Cold War liberalism, and the question of what is the real America… all that and more.Buy John’s book When the Clock Broke and check out his Unpopular Front newsletter.*** Get tix to our live event in NYC!
