The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 228 The Woke Right that calls itself the New Right is one of the most deceptive movements American conservatives have faced in a long time, even given everything we've been through over the last decade. By playing off the fact that we were in need of a new approach to the Republican Party that abandons the mondialism of the 1990s and 2000s, it positions itself as the necessary change to American right-wing thought even though that renaissance has already occurred. Through a litany of deceptive and sometimes subtle lies about itself, its agenda, and its vision, it is attempting nothing short of a coup of American conservatism. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay walks through all the necessary background and exposes many of these lies one by one so that they can be made plain for all.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 192 Recently on the New Discourses Bullets podcast, host James Lindsay laid out the three classical dialectics of both Hegel and Marx, which laid the foundation for Lenin and eventually Woke thought. In this fourth episode exploring dialectics more directly, he adds an important dimension to the dialectical approach: it is not, as some say, a "one-time good deal." Dialectical manipulations are meant to be iterated. That is, you don't transform a target with them just once but instead apply them over and over again, ratcheting the situation toward a desired goal or state of affairs. In this episode of the podcast, Lindsay explains the iterative intention of the dialectical approach. You don't want to miss it.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 227 The way the Nazis regarded themselves and their ideology is a fascinating story of differentiation and elevation, a kind of therapeutic balm for a humiliated national psyche. Nowhere is this ideological foundation more thoroughly elaborated upon than in Alfred Rosenberg's Myth of the Twentieth Century, published in 1930. It was set to the task of laying out the underlying "myth of the blood" upon which Nazi thought was at least partially based. Here on the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay has been taking listeners through portions of this strange book in this Myth of the Blood series, which is derivative to his longer Nazi Experiment podcast series. In this episode, he takes the listener through the end of the third chapter of Rosenberg's bizarre tome to illustrate how the Nazis distinguished themselves not just racially but ideologically from the Chinese, Indians, and Jews while explaining the "Luciferian" (his term) nature of the Nazi project. Join him for another eye-opening exploration of Nazi thought.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 191 Woke thinking runs on a dialectical engine, which it inherits not just from Lenin and Marx but also from Hegel. The usual formulation for dialectical theory in Communism presents three dialectics, and the third of these is the most mysterious. It is called "the Negation of the Negation." By connecting it to Communist theory and strategy, Mao's "unity, criticism, unity" formula, and the infamous "problem, reaction, solution" dialectic, host James Lindsay brings this seemingly abstruse idea to life in this new episode of New Discourses Bullets. Join him for some valuable clarity.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 190 The only way to understand Woke thinking is to understand its dialectical foundations, which run all the way back not only to Lenin and Marx but even to Hegel. There are three classical dialectical programs, at least in Communism, and the second of these is "the Struggle and Unification of Opposites." In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay takes you through this second dialectical form and how you'll meet it today in Woke behavior and thought. It is the second of a three-part series tackling these three dialectical forms. Join him to learn all about the manipulation.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 189 There's no understanding Woke without understanding its dialectical engine, which traces back through the Critical Theorists back through Lenin and Marx and even Hegel. Classically, there are three dialectical theories put forth and made explicit use of in Communist and Woke thinking. The first of these three is "Quantity transforms into quality, then quality transforms into quality." In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay walks through this dialectical form and connects it to the Woke you deal with today. This episode is the first in a three-part series dealing with the three operational dialectics. Join him to understand how they think.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 226 Popularity of socialism is rapidly on the rise, especially among American youth, but what is it? What is its relationship to Communism? What about Marxism? Why is it so popular even though it never works? Is Woke really related to socialism? These questions demand answers our schools and TikToks aren't giving, so in this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay runs through them. He explains the differences and relationships between socialism, Communism, and Marxism, explains how it's both an economic theory and a social theory that operates on faith, and how that faith works. You won't want to miss it. Join him for valuable insights.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 188 Karl Marx turned an economic idea called the labor theory of value into a theory of resentment and exploitation. The thing is, it's not just that Marx was wrong for adopting the labor theory of value; it's that the labor theory of value itself is also fundamentally wrong. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, aimed especially at younger listeners, host James Lindsay spells out the failures of both the labor theory of value in general and of Marx's theory of labor resentment on top of it. Join him to learn, and share with younger listeners so they can too.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 187 On both Left and Right, our young people are turning against the concept of interest, like money making money for being loaned out. This is an emergency, frankly. Not only does interest make total and absolute sense when you understand what it pays for, it is also an economic and moral good in society. Given current trends, it seems imperative to share the real foundations of monetary interest and how it produces moral and economic goods we should be happy about. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay goes through the basic economics and makes the case. Like most of his economically oriented podcasts, this one was recorded and shared particularly with younger listeners in mind, so join him and share the message with those people who need it most.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 186 There's a fundamental difference between mere power and legitimate authority, and that difference needs to be dragged into the center of our political discussions against Woke. Power is the raw capacity to do something, but authority is something more. It's power, which is to say capacity and permission, combined with right, which is justification. Woke movements covet power. They have no genuine authority. In that gap all the difference that matters hides. Our forefathers in the American Founding era understood this and called power without authority "arbitrary power," which they found slavish and absurd, and believed to be their sacred duty as men to resist. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay does a kind of "book club" reading from Timothy Sandefur's new book Proclaiming Liberty: John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and the Declaration of Independence (https://link.amazon/B079Yg99D), to draw out this distinction and make it clear and relevant.
