What would Christopher Hitchens say about the death of constructive political discourse and the rise of political violence? In this satirical reimagining, Hitchens takes aim at the toxic teachings of figures like Charlie Kirk and the corrosive rhetoric that fuels division in America.
From his imagined vantage point, Hitchens laments how debate has given way to demagoguery, how democracy has been hollowed out by partisanship, and how violence has become the currency of political expression. With his trademark wit, he dissects the hypocrisy, cowardice, and tribalism that push society further toward the abyss.
Join us as we explore how Hitchens’ uncompromising defence of reason and open discourse might confront a political landscape where democracy itself teeters on its deathbed.
