Support our work: http://novara.media/support Politics as we knew it has imploded. In the last decade, society has got vastly more politicised. But it hasn’t become any more organised. We’re in the world of hyperpolitics. Anton Jäger is the author of *Hyperpolitics: Extreme Politicisation without Political Consequences* (Verso, 2026). He told Richard Hames about how we got so isolated and how we stick ourselves back together. But have the global Gen Z revolutions and US anti-ICE uprisings changed all that?
