New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 193 Radical movements often tend to advance themselves by means of a vanguard approach in which a radical front pushes the issues and agenda forward while the bulk of the movement comes behind. The Communist dictator Vladimir Lenin was famous tor using this approach to conquer Russia and establish the Soviet Union. The thing is, a more sophisticated strategy doesn't use just one vanguard, but at least two, or maybe more. A "bad vanguard" pushes things too far while a "good vanguard" advances the real agenda, like a game of "good cop, bad cop" but for radical movement politics. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains this more sophisticated technique of radical advancement and exposes the strategy.

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.
