This Wreckage

Sean and Andy are joined by Marco and Luke of the UK collective Angry Workers of the World, here to discuss their practical activity and intellectual output since the publication of Class Power on Zero Hours several years ago. They also present their relatively new healthcare industry project whose publication Vital Signs seeks to analyze how medical labor, in all its industrial diversity and its day-to-day struggles, might prefigure a world where our class has taken responsibility for production and reproduction of society.This is a wide-ranging and fascinating discussion with fellow workers who are grappling with the biggest questions facing our class at the moment. If you're interested in their project or starting something similar where you live and work they have asked especially healthcare workers in the US to reach out to collaborate with them at Vital Signs.To become a patron and support our work go to www.patreon.com/thiswreckageSong: Megadeath - Angry Again

Sean and Varn are back to talk current events, discuss theory and gripe about everyone and everything. On the tumbrils this week: artificial intelligence, the DSA, sovereign debt, multipolarity and how not to debate with Colin Drumm online. In the second half we talk about 'The Mamdani Moment', Varn's recent ascension to Chief Fly-in-the-Ointment in the DSA, the pre-political theories of the ILC and how the ruling class are dragging us all into the hellfire.For the full episode, and all past Divings into the Wreckage, support this show at http://patreon.com/thiswreckageSong: Gary Numan - This Wreckage
