How To Give A Damn [Teaser]

Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy. Before embarking on a spirited bout of rank punditry, we take a step back and talk about the Staple Singers, Hannah Arendt's Origins of Totalitarianism, Tocqueville's Democracy in America, Zohran, and giving a damn about both your "fellow man" and democracy. Then, we walk you through the latest catalogue of horrors: Hegseth's lame TED talk in front of the generals, the menacing yet comically inept dimestore Gestapo that is ICE, the shutdown, and more! Sources: Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America (1835, 1840) Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951) Jasper Craven, "Battle of the Sexes," The Baffler, Sept 2025 "Deafies for Zohran" (YouTube) "Things Can Change" (X)
