Kimberly and Lark dive deeper into the Green Party’s role in today’s politics. Then, they unpack a provocative op-ed from the Revolutionary Communist of America (RCA) explaining their opposition to NY Democratic Party Mayoral candidate, Mamdani. Later, the discussion shifts to Aaron Bastani’s Fully Automated Luxury Communism—exploring its vision, the pitfalls of productivism, and how widespread misreadings of Marx are accelerating the climate crisis. The left positions itself as a force for good; we ask how it can live up to that imperative in a time of planetary emergency.
