On May 29, 2019, Arnav Gupta burned himself alive on the White House lawn, wearing a USA t-shirt. Very few people noticed, and even fewer tried to listen to what Arnav might have been telling us. Activist and writer Brent Cooper joins the Wrong Boys for a wide-ranging discussion on this event, self-immolation broadly, and a metamodernist approach to critiquing society and building a better world. ~Episode Artwork by Arnav Gupta, entitled  “HARAMBE OR BLACK PANTHER: THE WORLD IS AS YOU SEE IT”~ Video of the event:https://twitter.com/FightCentralTV/status/1133869927683829760 Brent’s article:https://medium.com/the-abs-tract-organization/man-on-fire-sign-of-the-end-times-958c3f1c3b21Brent’s Twitter and Website: https://twitter.com/tato_tweetshttps://www.abs-tract.org/ Support the Show on Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/srslywrong

The episode also touches on the dystopian future created by organizations providing escape from climate change effects, and the desire for socially just ecological societies.
