Is your Rage Pure Enough? w/Sina Rahmani - PsychLib ep.5

In this wide-ranging and wide-ranting discussion, Sina, Sacha and Benji explore the psychological clay feet of the dying white empire. We explore the entanglement of settler colonies and how they can't genocide their way to victory over the rest of the world. We look at the psychological protective and mobilizing role of rage. If, like us, you consider that ranting Sina is peak Sina, you'll enjoy this episode!
