What is a Radical? — the Political Archetype of Our Time

The Living Philosophy

Radical is a word that's thrown around a lot these days but whose meaning is left a bit vague. This episode explores the meaning of the term radical and why it is such an accurate finger on the pulse of the Culture Wars. From Trump and Bernie to Marx, Antifa and the Proud Boys our age embodies the spirit of radicalism.
This is the first in a new theme on the channel where we're going to unpack more political philosophy terminology and schools of thought.
