You Can't Win


Jul 22, 2019

Tom, Don and AgileTablet chat about fear of immigrants and Islamophobia. Starting with the 'secularism bill' in Quebec, which restricts the dress of some public servants, the gang talk about some of the ideological and practical problems with anti-immigrant rhetoric. The talk then veers towards trying to handle these debates rationally instead of just shutting down people we disagree with. Mentioned: Hyper HardBoiled Gourmet Report (available on NetFlix) and the book Homo Sacer by Giorgio Agamben.
