CORRECTIONS:
According to the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs (Brown University) "At least 800,000 people have been killed by direct war violence in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Pakistan," not solely in Afghanistan, as Collin claims, and his claims about "before 2011" are hogwash.
https://watson.brown.edu/costsofwar/costs/human
Also, that was the plot of the one issue of the Authority that Collin has read, not just "the first thing that happens in the comic."

CORRECTIONS: Adam Toledo's murder happened sometime before Daunte Wright's, but the video surfaced recently, and while the police claimed he was holding a toy gun, there was little evidence that this was the case.
Also, we compare Lenin to Rush Limbaugh in this episode, and if you think we're being Fully Serious about that, please go outside and touch grass.

It's Mutual Aid by Peter Kropotkin! This week, the gang talks about mutual aid in tribal societies. Kropotkin was writing over a century ago, and there's some racist language used. We also discuss Celtic laws, and there's some fatphobia, so trigger warnings abound. Also, obesity is caused by a variety of factors, not just "eating too much." Collin has no fucking idea when the Celtic wars with the Romans were, DO NOT trust the dates he provides for those events, he's off by like 300 years.
Read along if you like, Kropotkin is online for free all over the place.
Special thanks to Nicole Cuddihy, Andrew Harvey, and Shane Ragland, our editor!

Ur-Fascism:
https://www.pegc.us/archive/Articles/eco_ur-fascism.pdf
Getting Informed: A Leftist Lit Podcast is a book club, hosted by Collin Orton, where inexperienced lefties try and make sense of what the hell is going on around them. In Episode 1, Collin is joined by Al Groppi and Dylan Slye to discuss Umberto Eco's Ur-Fascism, which certainly has no bearing in modern politics.
This episode was recorded in August of 2020, and so the news segments will become more relevant to current events as we catch up to the current date.
As this is episode one, there are some audio issues, please bear with us, we're figuring it out.
Ur-Fascism can be found for free here:
