Reading Weizman - The Least of All Possible Evils
The “lesser evil” was once imagined as an exception, a momentary lapse into evil that could only be rarely justified by the necessity of avoiding a greater evil. Today it is increasingly difficult to imagine political decisions as anything but a choice between competing evils. Lesser-evilism is pervasive, in the electoralist scold that “if you don’t vote than you can’t complain,” in the legalistic insistance that anyone advocating armed struggle must be a “terrorist,” and at every moment of the struggle against opportunism. Revolutionary movements demand more, and we must be prepared to identify and overcome this culture of lesser-evilism wherever it rears its ugly head.

Fascism Lately feat. Alberto Toscano
In this episode, Tyler and Rob talked to Alberto Toscano. The impetus for our conversation was Alberto’s new book, Late Fascism: Race, Capitalism, and the Politics of Crisis, but our discussion was wide ranging —from the recent history of anti-system movements in the U.S., to the forms that fascism has taken in its Latin American manifestations, to the cultural terrain that reactionaries are waging struggles over in our everyday life. You can find some of Alberto’s work, mentioned in this podcast, available here (https://www.versobooks.com/blogs/authors/toscano-alberto) from Verso Books.
