3:01Now PlayingJournalist, editor at “Jacobin,” columnist for the “Guardian,” and speechwriter and senior advisor on Bernie Sanders’s 2020 presidential campaign David Sirota () joins the show and talks about the issues that appear in HBO’s series adaptation of Philip Roth’s WWII novel, “The Plot Against America.”
David describes the series’ depiction of a world in which Charles Lindbergh appeases the American public's desire to other-ize certain people using fascistic elements present in the Third Reich, predominantly extreme institutionalized antisemitism. David warns that the anger and need for a feeling of security that is represented in the show is FAR too closely paralleled in the U.S. right now.
David founded, edits, and writes for The Daily Poster, “a grassroots-funded investigative journalism project that covers politics, business and corporate power.”
