Pursuing the light of objective truth in subjective darkness.

    You Need To Love The Truth

    You Need To Love The Truth

    New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 87

    We all know we have to tell the truth, especially in these trying times. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn told us that a single man telling the truth could bring down a regime. Well, how do you tell the truth against those odds? You need a lot more than knowing you should tell the truth. You have to love the truth (and fear it!) with all your heart, all your mind, all your soul, and all your strength, and then you need to tell your neighbor the truth as you would expect him to tell the truth to you. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks down one of the most important principles against tyranny: loving the truth. Join him to get based.

    Staying Out Of Affordance Traps

    Staying Out Of Affordance Traps

    New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 86

    One of the most potent techniques dialectal wizards make use of is setting "affordance traps." An affordance trap is a way to trap their targets into a very limited range of options (which are afforded to them), usually with the psychological effect of making it difficult or impossible to think of any other possibilities other than those offered. Breaking free of affordance traps is necessary to beating Woke Marxism and all other forms of dialectical manipulation. Join host James Lindsay for this episode of New Discourses Bullets to learn about this important topic.

    China's Neoliberal Communism

    China's Neoliberal Communism

    New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 85

    How should we describe the system currently used in China? It's the CCP, Chinese Communist Party, so it's obviously a Communist nation, but look at the crazy-rich Asians and the huge corporations there. It's not Uncle Joe's Communism, that's for sure. So, what is it? Whether we want to call it Chinese Communism, Communism 3.0, or Neoliberal Communism, it's a Communist state that's operating with a controlled, Potemkin neoliberal "market" economy. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay spells it out. Join him for a little storytelling with a point!

    Communism Marries a Truth to a Lie

    Communism Marries a Truth to a Lie

    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

    Love and Praise for The Queering of the American Child

    Love and Praise for The Queering of the American Child

    The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 137

    "American education is in the grip of a religious cult." That's the first sentence of the newest book coming out from New Discourses: The Queering of the American Child (https://queeringbook.com), by Logan Lancing with James Lindsay. This religious cult, which is called Queer Theory and Queer Activism, represents the basis for the greatest child-abuse scandal in history, and it's time parents, grandparents, teachers, and citizens learn what's really going on with it so we can put a stop to it. Written in Logan Lancing's impressively accessible and easy-reading style, The Queering of the American Child pulls back the curtain on the cult nature of Queer Theory and its unacceptable takeover of American institutions in education, medicine, government, policy, and beyond. It is a must-read. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host and co-author James Lindsay introduces the book and lets you know what some early readers have had to say about it. Join him, and don't miss The Queering of the American Child!

    How to Allocate Your Resources

    How to Allocate Your Resources

    New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 83

    Many of us are working tirelessly to fight Woke Marxism and its attempted takeover of our societies, but the question is whether we're working as effectively and efficiently as we can. Often, we aren't, and it's discouraging, frustrating, exhausting, and demoralizing. When we are, though, we get the opposite effects: morale builds, momentum is generated, and winning builds upon winning. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay introduces the "Pareto principle," also known as the "80-20 Rule" as a guide to organizing our efforts when we're out organizing against Woke Marxism. Join him to learn about how we can all be more effective with our efforts.

A solid and foundation for a vital discussion. Thank you.

In their own words

Many accuse James Lindsay of misunderstanding and misrepresenting the critical theories and their Neo-Marxist roots. He does not. He simply allows the theorists to explain themselves in their own words and their ideas are devastating, dehumanising, and horrifying. If you want to fight back, arm yourself. This podcast is key to doing that.

Brilliant

Very refreshing to find a podcast taking the time to explain critical theory properly and carefully before dismantling it. I can finally understand why it makes me so uncomfortable and why it is dangerous.
