Last weekend new leftwing UK party officially now called ‘Your Party’ held their first conference showcasing a bonanza of debilitating leftist tendencies. We discuss those and wider bonkers trends on the left. Including, obsessional lunacy with accessibility that is actually a tool of manipulation and grievance mining, individualism and politics as identity, the affectlessness of leftwing speech today, and social exclusion's relationship to the repetition of slogans. Plus, the term ‘retard’ as a distinguishing signal, why the left hasn’t had a new idea or take in decades, how every attack by the left has a social quality, Trotskyism’s anathema to power, Syriza, platforming nonces, political messianism, and the left’s hostility to arguments.

New UK leftist political group 'Your Party' is to hold its first national conference this weekend. We discuss this latest attempt to marry the Muslim community with the left, the resignation of Adnan Hussain MP from Your Party, and its ongoing split over transgenderism. We also talk more widely about the state of the left in general, including how its disagreeable women are only understood as wreckers, the cries of 'class' and 'materialism' as of paramount importance when the left has pushed transgenderism as its key issue for a decade, Zohran Mamdani's win, and the endless purity spiralling tendencies of the contemporary left, as seen in calling Jeremy Cornyn of all people a 'zionist'. Plus, Nick Land, men as the universal subject in leftwing thought, the near supernatural evil of the trans movement, ‘transwomen’ trying to sleep with their mothers and commit other incest, and the four ways women secure their place on the left (either as an attack dog against other women, through a male sexual sponsor, by being most head banging ideological zealot, or a dogsbody).

Lily Allen's latest album details her husband's infidelity after initiating an open relationship. We discuss the unviability of open relationships, the risks of public confessionalism as therapeutic, the pernicious valorisation of the concept of consent beyond sex, and how people are hacking their own privacy on the internet.
