Saudi Arabia, Transgender Memo, & New Horror

We start our podcast with an update on the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. We’re incredulous at the constantly changing story of Saudi Arabia. We discuss the ongoing complications of the case and the hypocrisy of business who still attended the Davos of the Desert conference. We talk about the recently discovered memo by the Trump administration that intends to roll back protections for transgender Americans. We talk about the history of transphobia, the psychology of sexual violence and how it is tied to power and domination. We link this to Alex Jones getting caught watching trans porn and the link between fear and desire demonstrated in the rise in pornography that stereotypes immigrant and Muslim women. Finally we end with a discussion on the latest trends in horror movies.
