Special Edition of A Radical Podcast

In this episode, we take a direct look at how political labels—liberal, neoliberal, leftist, and anarchist—are misused, weaponized, and stripped of their meaning to undermine resistance and protect systems of power.

Too often, these terms are collapsed into one catch-all idea of “anti-Trump,” used interchangeably in media, policy, and everyday conversations. But the reality is more complex—and more urgent. From ICE raids and militarized policing to the co-option of radical movements by nonprofits and political parties, we’re watching resistance get distorted from all sides.

We break down:

  • What each political label means
  • How the right uses simplification to justify repression
  • How liberals and neoliberals absorb and neutralize radical efforts
  • What anarchists and anti-authoritarians are doing to build alternatives
  • Why clarity about these differences matters for collective resistance

This episode focuses on how political labels are weaponized to contain struggle, and how understanding their real meanings can help us build clarity and connection across our communities.

✊🏽 Follow ideas, not people.
