My name's Kai and I feature discussion of news, politics, economics, religion and much more from the point of view of an anarcho-socialist. I don't shy away from the controversial or the uncomfortable, I lean into it!

In this offline episode I just talk a bit about what I got up to today, some of the various aspects of building and running a 3D printer, the ecologically friendly filament I've sourced for printing and whatever else springs to mind. No news today folks, this one's all just journaling.
Enjoy!

In this nighttime stream we take a more laid back approach, talk video games have some fun with a flat earther (lol) and talk some stories of the day here and there. For the most part it's a chill stream without too much drama and not a huge focus on the protests.
Enjoy!

In this evening episode we talked about the various stories from the weekend and of the day with a fairly healthy back and forth with chat for the last third of the episode. I'm tired and have much still to do so forgive the lack of story links.
Enjoy!

In this episode I add additional context and commentary to this ever so relevant episode given the events surrounding the murder of George Floyd and the resulting protests and reactions to it.
This episode is about the historical origins of what we recognize as modern metropolitan police forces. In what may be true or apocryphal (it's difficult to tell) I tell you the tale of how police came to earn the nickname of "pigs" and how that set that tone for all future policing efforts.
I then move the story over to "the colonies", or what would become the United States of America and explain the two separate origin points for policing in our country today. The northern model and the southern model. With that covered I go on to explain some of the glaring deficiencies and outright cancerous problems with how police are trained and equipped that lead to the tragic outcomes we often see today.

An offline Saturday episode and mostly just a checking in for my community that was slightly concerned (love you guys). Talked about the Vegas protests from the day/night and that's about it.
Enjoy!

We spent this mostly talking about the Minneapolis riots and running commentary until the final few minutes of disruption and disrespect brought by Perspective 360 (as usual).
Enjoy.

In this episode we spend quite a bit of time talking about the George Floyd murder, policing, racism and the general shittiness of our system as it stands. I also at the very end of the first show got into a interesting discussion with someone and so there is an "aftershow" episode included as well in which Will, Catissilo and myself continue to discuss organizing principles and other philosophies of the politically left.
Enjoy!
