FaeBun is referring back to Episode 1.
The CEO of the Washingtonian, Cathy Merrill, posted an opinion piece to The Washington Post (different newspaper). The headline read: “As a CEO, I want my employees to understand the risks of not returning to work in the office.” In protest, the editorial staff of the Washingtonian did not publish for a day.
Justin is referring to this post and this post; xe had looked up the Party for Socialism and Liberation (socialist party striving for communism), the Socialist Workers Party (a Trotskyist, Castroist, Communist Party), and the American Independent Party (the party of George Wallace, far-right, paleoconservative).

“Could American Evangelicals Spot the Antichrist? Here Are the Biblical Predictions:” - the article that posits that Donald Trump may be the Antichrist.
