Masculinity and Misinformation: How JimmyTheGiant Escaped The Alt-Right Pipeline

Warning: this episode contains strong language and a term of racist abuse. Nish and Coco dig into some scary data about Gen Z. A poll of 13-27 year olds this week suggested nearly half of them favour authoritarian government. And nearly half of young men think women have been given too many rights. Youtuber JimmyTheGiant joins the pod to tell us about this mindset and how he disappeared into the right wing wormhole, and came out the other side. And newts v planes:  Nish and Coco check out Rachel Reeves plans for growth. Is she pinning her hopes on the tech bros and Heathrow while sticking two fingers up to net Zero?   Useful Links https://www.youtube.com/@JimmyTheGiant/videos   Guests JimmytheGiant Clare Farrell   Audio Credits Today Programme, BBC Radio 4 Clare Farrell   Pod Save the UK is a Reduced Listening production for Crooked Media.
