In 2006, despite the unstoppable ascendancy of liberal-capitalist hegemony in the post-Soviet context, the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist), completed a successful revolution in one of the poorest countries in the world, overthrowing a nearly 250 year old autocratic monarchy aligned with the United States. We trace a brief chronology of the revolutionary conflict, then discuss how the Maoists were so successful in recruiting the masses to their side, particularly women, peasants, and indigenous groups.

Ep.34: @gabrus and @julianfeeld watch an action movie about a heavily muscled man (Dolph Lundgren at peak sexiness) discovering that communism is bad. But the movie’s production history connects Hollywood directly to the Reagan administration’s proxy wars, the apartheid government of South Africa, and the political career of the infamous Jack Abramoff. by @superstructurepodcast

New episode out now! Episode #32: “The Japanese Cult in Brazil that Never Lost WW2”

This one is a doozy brought to us by Caio Almendra @caioalmendra .

We talk about Shindo-Renmei, a secret society among Japanese migrants in Brazil in the aftermath of World War II. They adamantly insisted that Japan had won World War II, to the point that they spread propaganda and carried out a series of terrorist attacks to reinforce their belief system. by @superstructurepodcast

Surprise surprise, this isn’t the first (nor the last) episode where we look at the ways the USA has impeded democratic reforms in Central and South America…In the 1970s and 80s, Guatemala saw a joint effort by a military junta, the United Fruit Company, the CIA and American Evangelicals to suppress an indigenous guerrilla movement.
