Ben Burgis is widely known for his best-selling book "Give them an argument. Logic for the Left". He is also a contributor to the Jacobin magazine and a very nuanced intellectual. This year he published a book with a very catchy title, "Canceling Comedians While the World Burns. A Critique of the Contemporary Left."
Maria Cernat wrote a review for his book, and now they meet to analyze further why the Left is constantly caught in what Burgis calls "pathologies of the powerless".

Join us on the Barricades to learn more about a fascinating book that dares to challenge most of the themes leftists fight about.
