Inspired by recent episodes of Paradise, the conversation asks a deeper question:\nWhat actually happens to human behavior when the rules of society disappear?\nAlong the way, the panel discusses disaster psychology, mutual aid, and the jobs that suddenly become powerful when civilization breaks down.\n⚠️ Spoiler note: Light discussion of Paradise Season 2.\nDon’t forget to like, subscribe, and drop a comment with your thoughts on how pop culture, race, and consumerism collide in today’s world!\nSupport:\n4TP merch: https://4tpbysolid.com\nEnd of a Species merch: https://endofaspecies.com/merch\nFollow:\nSuper Solid:\nhttps://www.instagram.com/4theproletariat\nhttps://youtube.com/@supersolid.4tP?si=fDzrUViQDz2pF6QT\nJeff:\nhttps://www.instagram.com/zeusnjeff\nhttps://bsky.app/profile/zeusnjeff.bsky.social\nShaun:\nhttps://www.instagram.com/watchmylegs\nhttps://bsky.app/profile/watchmylegss.bsky.social\nhttps://www.youtube.com/@UCoT2LabnXZOfNhH4SmlZ-Lg","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/qCXJxFjsEWHFrRFBb7wdYrckzi_Ft5nd64v6hPpHZSM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zMWJm/MGExODUyYWE2N2Uy/NzI5M2UxZmJlMDE3/ODUxOS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
