In this solo episode, Gavin unpacks his firsthand experience working at a Canadian federal election polling station—and why it left him more convinced than ever that capitalism and democracy are fundamentally incompatible. From authoritarian micro-behaviors to racial dynamics at play, this episode dives deep into the cracks in the illusion of “free and fair” elections.

In the bonus episode on Patreon, Gavin discusses the 2022 film Sinners, exploring themes of guilt, power, and collective moral failure.

This week on Uncolonized, Daniel and Gavin tear into the Royal Ontario Museum, where one of the board’s chairpersons is connected to a company making money off deportations from the U.S. Spoiler: colonial institutions don’t really change — they just rebrand. We also get into Martin Heidegger’s idea of enframing, and how museums, despite all their shiny updates, are still running on the same colonial operating system.

On our Patreon bonus episode patreon.com/theuncolonzed, we break down how the Peterborough mayor thought it was a good idea to use the N-word at a college event — and how boomers are still fumbling around the internet like it's a damn Rubik's Cube.

If you want critical, unapologetic takes on colonialism, racism, and the slow-moving trainwreck of old power structures trying to survive the internet age — hit play.

This week on Uncolonized, Gavin Stephens and Daniel Grant dive into the media’s favorite zombie narrative: the “silent majority.” Every election cycle, pundits and pollsters act like it’s a shocking new revelation—but this trope is as old as Nixon. We unpack the latest reincarnation of it, featuring the supposed shift of white male Gen Z voters to the right, particularly towards Trump. Are they really shifting—or just revealing who they’ve always been?

Plus, in our Patreon-exclusive episode, we get into a viral story about a woman who dated a string of far-right men. What she discovered about their views, emotional development, and how they perform masculinity says a lot about the culture we’re in.
