Joshua Citarella built his reputation by mapping synthetic e-deologies of terminally online politics, expressed in memes, micro-disputes and merch drops.
Now the artist, Doomscroll host and Do Not Research founder has come to a blunter conclusion: it’s time to lock in.
Behind the seeming diversity of online politics, one ideology has already won: the technolibertarianism of the platforms and supply chains that actually make it all run.
So maybe it’s time to get serious, tune out the noise, and get back to basics: workers versus capital.
This episode is the finale of Do Your Own Research Series 1. We’ll be back soon.
