Ep. 118: Immigration, Eco Fascism, & David Frum
Some people care about the environment. Some people are white supremacists. If one were to make a venn diagram, you'd find a small amount of overlap that gets at eco-fascism, the subject of today's episode and the apparent inspiration for the murderer that carried out the Christchurch massacre in New Zealand.
Most of this episode, however, focuses on David Frum, his very bad brain and also his surname which rhymes with a slang term for ejaculate. David Frum and the conservative ideas he represents, we contend, are diet eco-fascism.
