Today we’re going to continue this streak of exceptional interviews and our branching out of the WEIRD world we often inhabit (that’s the acronym WEIRD: Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic) with Karun, a currycel living in India. This is a timely interview in part because just last week we had a mind numbingly bad article in GNET (the global network on extremism and technology) titled “Incel Extremism in India: A view from the global south.” I won’t be including that link in the notes but you can google. I’m sure you’ll all be shocked when I tell you that none of its “insights” are reflected in the conversation you’re about to here... Outro: "Take Me Out" by Franz Ferdinand. 2004.
