S2 Ep47: Breaking from Research: A Personal Reflection on Syncretic Politics and the 1990’s

https://linktr.ee/TheRightPodcast This piece is a reading and discussion of a recent article focused on political syncretism in the 1990s. In the article, I share my personal experiences and juxtapose them with the broader political shifts of that era. Ultimately, it explores the dangers of conspiratorial thought and how populist rhetoric can serve as a pathway to such thinking, often leading to reactionary outcomes. I highlight various movements, including the anti-globalization protests, freight train riding, and radical environmentalism, while also addressing the far-right sentiments of the time, such as Traditionalism.
