New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 84
"Communism marries a truth to a lie." -Julie Behling, author of Beneath Sheep's Clothing (https://amzn.to/3UDPwtc) and director of a forthcoming documentary (http://beneathsheepsclothing.movie) by the same title.
One of the most basic truths about how Marxism works is that it marries a truth to a lie. Another way that has been put is that "every Woke term conceals an agenda" (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/05/woke-terms-conceal-agendas). In order to combat Woke Marxism, then, it is crucial that we learn to pull apart the truth and the lie and to expose the manipulation involved. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay takes you through the principle and almost a dozen examples of how it works in practice. He then assigns you homework: go practice this skill for yourself!
NB: Some of these ideas and tactics are also covered in detail in James's volume with Charles Pincourt, Counter Wokecraft: https://amzn.to/4bIlGJX
