Episode 95: “There is No Ethical Consumption Under Capitalism” ft. Mo Evil Foods

In this week’s program, I sit down with some former employees of No Evil Foods—a company in Asheville that brands itself as a progressive vegan plant-based meat-maker—and talk about their efforts to unionize their workplace and the brand’s crackdown on organized labor. We talk about performative wokeness, vegan lifestylism, intersectionality, and so much more.
