Ben Burgis and Djene Bajalan join Douglas Lain to discuss the War on Disinformation, and to resolve an argument that broke out on the Diet Soap 15 hour anniversary livestream. Should be hope that social media companies become the fully recognized property of the state, how concerned should we be about the war on disinformation, and how should socialists understand and relate to the Capitalist State?

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.
