Mutual Aid as Evolutionary Truth? | A Podcast for Radicals – Special Edition

Peter Kropotkin exposed how capitalists used "survival of the fittest" to justify exploitation. 120 years later, we're fighting the same battle.

This episode explores mutual aid not as charity or activism, but as our biological reality - and why understanding this changes everything about how we organize.

In this episode:

  • The 1800s debate between Kropotkin and Social Darwinists that shaped how we see human nature
  • How industrial capitalists used "natural selection" to justify child labor and poverty wages
  • Why Project 2025 targets mutual aid networks and criminalizes public care
  • Reading from Chapter 6 of A Radical Guide's "Resist Project 2025" booklet
  • Understanding cooperation as an evolutionary strategy, not a political position
  • How communities create alternatives that make authoritarian systems irrelevant


The same ideology that justified factory exploitation now justifies letting people die without healthcare. But communities practicing mutual aid aren't doing charity - they're expressing the same cooperative force that builds forests and keeps thirty-seven trillion cells in your body working together.
