Associate professor of economics and author of new book, The Case for Anti-Fascist Economics: In Defense of Affordability, Dignity, and Democracy Isabella Weber, returns to Bad Faith to make the case for what an anti-fascist economic program looks like, and weigh in on whether Democrats new interest in "affordability" is a meaningful step in the right direction. What specific policies are indicia of a sincerely left populist agenda as opposed to "abundance" chicanery, and what litmus tests should the left use to assess 2028 candidates?
