A little over a year ago, they published a Guardian article which explored the rise of what they called “end times fascism”. It’s a coalition of billionaire tech barons, ethno-nationalists and religious fundamentalists all too willing to sacrifice the planet for their end times fever dreams, believing that their power and wealth will protect them from the hell they’re unleashing on the rest of us.

It’s terrifying in its wickedness, yes. But it also opens up the possibility of a powerful movement strong enough to rise up, resist them and defend the planet.

That’s why they’re exploring this ideology further with their new book and with a Guardian Live event on 28 September. Join us for a rare opportunity to hear firsthand from Klein and Taylor as they take us deep into this man-made Armageddon complex, introduce us to the people effectively resisting it around the world, and answer the question: how do we build a movement strong enough to counter this divisionist narrative?

If you’re based in or around Bristol, join us live in Bristol St Georges, or join the conversation by tuning in via the livestream from wherever you are. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask them your questions.
