Composting Cultures of Disposability w/ Clementine Morrigan & Jay LeSoleil (Fucking Cancelled)

On this episode, Clementine & Jay from the Fucking Cancelled Podcast join me to help unpack and unravel identitarianism, cancel culture, and the social media spectacle.

Clementine Morrigan is a writer and public intellectual based in Montréal, Canada. She writes popular and controversial essays about culture, politics, ethics, relationships, sexuality, and trauma. A passionate believer in independent media, she’s been making zines since the year 2000 and is the author of several books. She’s known for her iconic white-text-on-a-black-background mini-essays on Instagram. One of the leading voices on the Canadian Left and one half of the Fucking Cancelled podcast, Clementine is an outspoken critic of cancel culture and a proponent of building solidarity across difference. She is a socialist, a feminist, and a vegan for the animals and the earth.

Jay is a writer, artist and designer from Montreal and is the author of the Substack jaylesoleil.com and the zine series What Else Is There to Live For. Jay is also the co-host of Fucking Cancelled.

Cancel culture erodes the very conditions that would allow us to have real power and the conditions that would allow us to have real power are solidarity. - Clementine Morrigan
