b'We are joined by Quinn Slobodian \\u2014 author of Crack-Up Capitalism: Market Radicals and the Dream of a World Without Democracy \\u2014 to discuss the libertarian extremism that forms the intellectual foundation for right-wing movements. We can see how the fringe beliefs of anarcho-capitalists \\u2014 like Murray Rothbard (neo-confederate secessionist) and David Friedman (medieval LARPer) \\u2014 are gaining broader influence, even becoming mainstream. On one hand, they are raving lunatics, ideological zealots, and explicit racists. On the other hand, the utopias they desire can be found manifested in the zones and policies \\u2014 like gated communities and gutted education systems \\u2014 that have been surging for decades.\\n\\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 Quinn\\u2019s book: https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250753892/crackupcapitalism \\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 Quinn\\u2019s twitter: https://twitter.com/zeithistoriker \\n\\nSubscribe to hear more analysis and commentary in our premium episodes every week! https://www.patreon.com/thismachinekills \\n\\nHosted by Jathan Sadowski (www.twitter.com/jathansadowski) and Edward Ongweso Jr. (www.twitter.com/bigblackjacobin).
