Wow, what a great interview. Parker is a fascinating person. I learned so much. And good for him for his stance on trans.

Principled, non-ideologically captured leftists are dinosaurs in the current political environment. Parker has been to hell and back, yet he still has his marbles, a sense of humor, and faith that the human race can improve. He refuses to be a martyr. He's one strong dude.

I'm recommending this episode to my radical leftist friend who's pulling her hair out over James Lindsay's "cultural Marxism" framing. She's a purist, and she thinks it's totally spurious. I think she'll relate to Parker's historical analysis of the evolution of utopian religions and Marxism. (I found it fascinating.)

Like Parker, my friend is fed up with the Democratic party and is considering voting for Trump!

It's interesting how everything changes.
