3: How Does The World REALLY Work with Bo Burnham | Art, Jargon & International Relations Theory

Join me, Bo Burnham & Socko as we try and figure out How The World Works? Spoiler: It’s complicated. Bo tries to tell us that “The secret is the world can only work, when everything works together”, but more than stating a fact, I believe Bo may be wishing the world worked that simply. This is a deep dive on just 1 song on Bo’s Netflix Special: “Inside” titled:“How The World Works”. This podcast works as a response to my original YouTube video. 

We Discuss: 

• Realism VS. Liberalism Debate in International Politics. [The question are humans good or are they evil is a question as old as time. But as we all know the world is not so black and white]
• Bo Burnham’s nod to Marxist Critique on capitalism: Seeing exploitation through a global lens. Many times, exploitation is thought of as a national issue, but our world is a global economy and when valuing human rights we must look further than our own backyard.
• Bo’s “Neoliberal Fascists ’  Destroying the Left” Argument : Discussing the Left VS. Right Divide & how harmful the Us VS. Them mentality can be.
• History’s Bias taught to children in class [In terms of Racism, Classism & Nationalism]
• Critique on the use of Jargon by Socko (Could Socko be alienating Bo in the conversation? This could be an explanation for the tense argument)
