Nightmare Vision Episode 4
from The Night Owls Hosted by Nightmare Vision
This episode is about the birth and death of political religions. Using Eliade’s writing on the mythic competition between National Socialism and Communism, Sartre and Maurice Merleau-Ponty and their quasi-religious conversion to the class struggle, and the Western defense of Communist atrocities as part of a redemptive vision, I talk about current violent radicalism as a crisis of political religion and the philosophy of history.
