Normie Socialism or Communist Transgression

September 27, 2018 Kate Doyle Griffiths interviewed by Red Wedge
The Juggalo March on Washington: Transgression as a point of entry into the world of being a Struggalo.

The Juggalo March on Washington: Transgression as a point of entry into the world of being a Struggalo.

Red Wedge spoke with one of our close comrades and collaborators, Kate Doyle Griffiths, for what was initially to be a discussion of transgressive social practices within the context of the West Virginia uprising. What transpired, however, was a wide-ranging discussion of transgression and Left politics, social reproduction theory, Insane Clown Posse and of course, the cultural practices of the striking workers in West Virginia, the polysemic quality of Twisted Sister. The following interview was conducted in June and July 2018. It will featured in our upcoming sixth issue, which you can subscribe to by supporting us through the Red Wedge Patreon.

Yet, like a mole burrowing away, utopia can be found in the strangest of places, which once apparent become obvious. Like the hidden erotica on a Camel cigarette pack, utopian impulses cannot be unseen – or unheard, its mark indelible like ink that will never wash away.

Silent, by Olivia Mansfield.

Silent, by Olivia Mansfield.

In my blackened room, I leapt from a tall building, I descended past the ends of the earth and there was nothing to stop my fall.

My neck wrenched as I shouted, “It hurts.”

The pain paused for a moment and it returned.

I was not the one falling it was my pain it was intimate it was generous.
