Carl and I also discuss the potential of left unity when it comes to strategic disputes and the concept of militancy in socialist education. Plus, don't miss our exploration of how language can shape our understanding of power dynamics and the role of multilingualism in fostering greater cultural awareness.Throughout the episode, we delve into the challenges of navigating leftist terminology and the importance of ideological unity in building a more robust left-wing movement.
