(071) Yung Gaddafi ft. Aamer (Das Criminal)

Mandatory OT

YALL! The West Virginia IWW’s Chris n Dave kick back with our new pal Aamer (@IbnKulthum), an anti-imperialist, Marxist-Leninist writer and a co-host of the Das Criminal podcast, to talk about the vast world of Arab Socialism and Pan-Arabism. Buckle up! It's another longboi. We dive right into a wildly in-depth chat about Arab Socialism from a bird's eye view. It's a bird with HELLA good eye sight. We discuss Ba'athism, the rise of Nasser and the build out of Pan-Arabism. We navigate the waters discussing how Marxism and Islamic thought tangle with each other. Naturally, you absolutely cannot avoid Gaddafi, Libya, and the anti-imperialist struggle waged by the Libyan people. We also take a sec to talk about a real buggaboo, Saddam Hussein. Srsly yall. SO MUCH to talk about. This is yet ANOTHER unbelievable episode highlighting anti-imperialism! Many, many, many thousands of thanks to Aamer for coming on to chat with us!
