This episode of Pop the Left features a debate between Conrad Hamilton and Chris Cutrone as they both attempt to judge the 20th century left and the contemporary left. Has there been any progress for the socialist struggle in the last 100 years? How are we to judge the contradictory "progress" brought on by industrialization and modernity? Special feature: Doug turns into Stalin as he tries to get a word in edgewise.Support Diet Soap Media on Patreonhttps://patreon.com/dietsoap

The Diet Soap podcast began in 2009 in response to the economic crisis of 2008. Since then it has gone through many transformations, including becoming the podcast for a critical theory imprint out of the UK. Today the Diet Soap podcast is running under its original name for Sublation Media.Sublation Media includes a book publishing effort for critical theory and left politics, a magazine that covers current events and theoretical issues, youtube videos on theory and politics, and finally the Diet Soap podcast. The podcast is where we continue to interrogate the left and each other while having a good time.
