An Experiment in (Lefty) Roleplaying?
Djene Rhys Bajalan, Jason Myles, and the Lain family (Doug, Simon and Noah) come together for another session of roleplaying magic after their write up in MerionWest.
"Since the start of November, Zer0 Books has engaged in a serial experiment in 'lefty roleplaying' called Zer0 Quest: Working Class RPG. In this notable departure from Zer0 Books’ usual self-promotional shorts, publishing manager Douglas Lain has joined forces with university lecturer and self-professed wargamer Djene Rhys Bajalan to produce a YouTube series exploring the relationship between roleplaying games (RPGs) and left-wing politics. Powered by the mechanics of the artisanal horror sci-fi platform Mothership, Zer0 Quest sees Bajalan assume the role of game master as Lain and his two sons, Simon and Noah, indulge in a theatre of the mind—charting strange unknown worlds and trying to survive in the most inhospitable environment of outer space. "

To get to the core of Critical Theory, we need to look at the origins of Critical Theory emerging from Marxism in the early 20th century Germany and the US. We will start by examining two just-so stories about critical theory and then compare this to a history of the Frankfurt school's beginning. Thanks foes out to Shalon Van Tine for the four horsemen phrase and Martin Jay, Susan Buck-Morass, Rolf Wiggershaus, Stephen Bonner, Mathias Rothe, Bastion Ronge, and Rick Kuhn for the bulk of the material used for reference.
