Finally got around to actually watching this. The best bit is the debate over Advaita Vedanta vs. Eastern Christianity 42 mins in. Who won?

I think this book will shape how historians describe the present political moment.
Started reading The Fraud, and it is abundantly clear that the Labour Party was hollowed out by a cabal of right-wing corporatised infiltrators who clearly despise the left so much that they committed serious crimes to fulfil their goals of total capture of the party and betrayal of their members.
