We talk with journalist and activist Simi (bylines: Skanda Kadirgamar) about the side effects of capitalist realism, where we mistake capitalism for a law of physics. We also talk about Kashmir, Sri Lanka, xenophobia and racism after 9/11, the potentiality of Trans and Queer people, occupying space as a marginalized person and the interest in martial arts, and capitalist realism's effects on journalism.
