Zero Books Manifesto:
The modern world is at an impasse. Disasters scroll across our smartphone screens and we’re invited to like, follow or upvote, but critical thinking is harder and harder to find. Rather than connecting us in common struggle and debate, the internet has sped up and deepened a long-standing process of alienation and atomization.

A rather playful and utopian vision of socialism that defends video games and gamers from over eager critics of capitalism who have too quickly decided that Pac Man, Mario, and other pixelated heroes are on the side of reaction.

Ideology and the Virtual City is an exploration of modern society and the critical value of popular culture. It combines a prescient social theory that describes how ‘neoliberal’ ideology in today’s societies dominates our economic, political and cultural ideals, with an entertaining exploration of narratives, characters and play structures in some of today’s most interesting videogames.
Jon Bailes is a researcher and author who writes extensively about ideology, neoliberalism and popular culture. He has a PhD in European Studies from University college London, has published numerous academic journal articles, and co-runs stateofnatureblog.com, a website featuring interviews with social and political theorists. He is also a freelance videogames critic, writing reviews and commentaries for The Guardian, Edge, Kotaku UK, Unwinnable, Wireframe and others.

Too often the left fails to engage with conservative critics of modernity and this failure allows right-wing tropes and concepts to go unchallenged. For instance, if only the right will address the way social alienation creates a sense of meaninglessness and instability, then only the right will reach people who long for meaning and stability. Further, not answering the strongest arguments from our ideological opponents but merely denouncing them leaves us defenseless when our social authority wears out.

The Acid Horizon crew are joined by Ray Brassier to discuss the new edition of Marcuse's 5 Lectures, out on Repeater Books as 'Psychoanalysis, Politics, and Utopia', which he wrote the introduction for. We discuss Marcuse's influence on accelerationism, his historical materialist take on Freudian psychoanalysis, and the function of repression and enjoyment in a capitalist landscape where scarcity appears increasingly artificial in light of technological and cybernetic advances in production.

Black popular culture has been viewed by some as the creative expression of Black American identity. What does it mean when those who create that popular culture don't belong to the class of Black folks they seem to portray while potentially fulfilling the worst trappings of underclass ideology regarding the Black poor?"

Oz Katerji is a writer, filmmaker and journalist with a focus on the Middle East. He is a foe of Bashar al-Assad and the guest on this week’s Inside Zero Books podcast.
Before the interview begins I want to make it clear that releasing this interview is not meant to be taken as support for US or UK military intervention or for US led regime change in Syria. It is, instead, an attempt to allow a vocal and passionate critic of Assad to be heard. Whatever the Anglophone left decides to do, whatever position or action we take, we should not hide from the character of the Assad regime.

As we've seen everything from the random punching of a 75 year old Asian woman in the face in San Francisco, to the murder of 8 (6 Asian women)in Atlanta. How do we on the left view what is a just outcome for these perpetrators of violence?
In the aftermath of the George Floyd protests of the summer do we actually need more law enforcement to help stop these horrible acts from occurring?
Will the backlash we see after this incident in Atlanta be similar to what we saw in Los Angeles in the Karen Toshima murder in 1988? Is there an element of foundation types and lawyers that use situations like this, to brand a #hashtag and advance a career?
We'll be asking these questions and more with the usual Saturday Crüe of Jason, Pascal, Marcus and Paul. Coming to chat with us will be Dr. Sora Han. Dr. Han is the Associate Professor, Criminology, Law & Society School of Social Ecology.
