Trump is a Monster

Mythic understanding in the present world, with Rhyd Wildermuth.

Well, this was an unexpected treat for me:

After four or so years of working together,

and I finally synced up for our first voice-to-voice conversation.

We had a great time talking about the limits of philosophy for understanding the present world, and the Trump Phenomenon as a mythic warning light.

And also toddlers with power tools. And demonic chatbots. And sustainable concentration camps. And how Trump might actually be like Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th, but not in a jokey meme way.

makes a spiritual cameo, too.

Very, very grateful for the opportunity to talk to Rhyd, and already looking forward to the next one.
