The systems we live under are having such a massive impact on our collective wellbeing, but are not inevitable — they were built, and they can be unbuilt.
This week, Niall Breslin sits down with someone who has been helping him make sense of the world. Pissed Magistus is a powerful cultural critic and digital creator whose work has helped countless people make sense of the modern world. Known for their ability to translate complex ideas into accessible, emotionally resonant insights, Pissed Magistus brings a unique lens to some of the most pressing issues of our time.
Together, they explore the deep psychological and emotional impact of capitalism, the illusion of individualism, and the quiet crisis of meaning that so many of us are living through. Of course this conversation can’t be had without examining the ever-powerful shadow that America casts on the world, and the divide-and-conquer strategies keep us disconnected. They unpack what a fairer and more humane system could look like, and why communication and imagination are essential tools for collective change.
