Central to Joshua Citarella’s work is our powerful urge to define our identity through online activities. Citarella is also an adept Twitch-streamer, and it’s a skill he puts to good use in his quest to better understand internet culture, online communities and the way our excessive use of the internet shapes our personalities. His book Politigram and the Post-Left offers a unique insight into the online meme cultures. Gen Z teens use them to explore radical political ideas such as eco-extremism, neo-reactionism, anarcho-primitivism, transhumanism, anarcho-capitalism, alt-rightism, post-leftism, egoism and cyber-nihilism.
