The Professional Left Podcast with Driftglass and Blue Gal
Ep 915: The Derp State
We dive into the Republican party's latest identity crisis as their own media machine turns on itself. We explore how decades of conspiracy theories and manufactured outrage have created a base that demands their leaders deliver on impossible promises—and what happens when reality finally catches up.
We examine the MAGA movement's relationship with truth, the cult-like devotion that prevents accountability, and how certain recent developments have exposed the gears of the right-wing propaganda machine in real time. Plus, we tackle the persistent myth that America needs a "healthy two-party system" and why that thinking might be exactly backwards.
From the cornfield resistance, we're reworking classic theater for modern times—because sometimes the absurd is the only way to make sense of the absurd.
