New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 97

In Mao's China, the population was turned against itself through relentless campaigns known as "Speaking Bitterness." Of course, this was prompted and forced by the Communists, and it worked to their advantage by tearing apart the fabric of the communities they were "transforming." We have been doing the same thing here in the West, primarily at work and in our schools, under names like "DEI training," "unconscious bias training," "Social-Emotional Learning," and, broadly, "Sensitivity Training." In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay gives the original context for these disastrous "trainings" so we can be better equipped to expose and stop them.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 144

Leftists believe the state owns your children. Never has that been more evident than in the last few years, at least in Western nations, and the result has been a momentous pushback against them. The Parents Rights movement is the beating heart of the resistance to Woke Marxism, and it's changing the world for the better. The Woke Marxists, for their part, have noticed, though, and they're not just pushing back and "navigating parental resistance," (http://queeringbook.com/ ) they're also trying to rewrite legal theory to convince judges and magistrates that the movement is illegitimate and reactionary. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay goes through a brand new paper (https://newdiscourses.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/The-New-Law-and-Politics-of-Parental-Rights.pdf ) from the University of Michigan Law to show you how they're doing it and how crucial this fight is. Join him to understand how to engage in the next round of the fight to regain our parental rights!

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 143

Canada is in a lot of trouble, but few of us realize how far back the trouble really began. In 1968, Canada was swept with a madness affectionately called "Trudeaumania," and a new prime minister, Pierre Trudeau, was swept into office with an interest in making major transformational changes to the Canadian circumstance. Though his ambitions were greater than what the political environment in Canada in the 1970s and 1980s could tolerate, the elder Trudeau shifted policies and government institutions strongly into the radical model championed even today by some of the most concerning outfits on the planet, including the World Economic Forum (WEF), United Nations (UN), and the infamous neo-Malthusian "Club of Rome." In fact, in this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay exposes that Pierre Trudeau worked closely with the Club of Rome (https://www.utpjournals.press/doi/full/10.3138/cjh-57-2-2021-0101/) before it officially launched and set Canada's environmental policy from its outset in line with their wicked ambitions. Join him to learn how deeply infected the Canadian Liberal Party is, and has been for fifty years, with bad Communistic ideas like "degrowth" (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/08/degrowth-wests-leap-backwards/), "sustainable development" (https://newdiscourses.com/2021/10/sustainability-tyranny-21st-century/), "inclusion" (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/11/the-fraud-of-diversity-and-inclusion/), "Net Zero" (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/05/absolute-zero-and-the-western-holodomor/), and the "well-being economy" (https://newdiscourses.com/2023/11/degrowth-distributism-well-being-economy/).

The United Nations is an evil organization, and it's time for us to recognize it. Fortunately, We Are The Change, part of the Inspired Network (https://www.theinspirednetwork.org/ ), put on a rally outside the United Nations headquarters in Geneva on June 1st to help the world do just that. Among the invited guest speakers to this huge rally, which had over 3,000 people in attendance, was James Lindsay, owner of New Discourses and host of the New Discourses Podcast. Lindsay delivered a short, fiery speech in which he condemned and denounced the United Nations as an evil organization, rejecting its ambition to claim any of our national and individual sovereignty to itself. He explained their big-picture ambition to act as a kind of "central nervous system" for a global "meta-organism" of all of humanity and nature, which is a Marxist agenda. In the end, he warns the UN of their hubris, comparing them to Babel and reminding them: "God shall not be mocked!" Check it out!

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 96

Dialectical Leftism doesn't just do the old Marxist thing anymore. There's a new dialectical game in town that allows Marxists worldwide to transcend classical Marxism, including in the Chinese Communist Party over the last few decades. That method is called "reflexivity," as it was outlined as a so-called "shoelace dialectic" by George Soros in his famous book The Alchemy of Finance (https://amzn.to/3XjXqJp). Host James Lindsay detailed the Soros method (https://newdiscourses.com/2024/04/the-reflexive-alchemy-of-george-soros/) recently in a long-form podcast on the New Discourses Podcast platform, and here, he summarizes the essential points in short form for the New Discourses Bullets. Join him for this important episode to learn how propaganda and driven feedback loops are misshaping the world.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 95

To be successful at pushing back at Woke Marxism, you have to know some Woke Marxism and know it pretty well. It's not enough to have a tacit sense of what "Woke" or its programs are about. You have to be somewhat knowledgeable. Leftists are extremely good at discrediting their opposition by making them look dumb (or ignorant, or uninformed), evil, or crazy, and they will spring questions on unsuspecting activists to create this image. Preventing them the easy entry against you, your work, and your message that is undermining your intellectual authority on these matters is as simple as one thing: doing your homework. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay talks about this Leftist strategy and the importance of doing your homework to countering them. Join him to up your game!

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 142

A Woke concept that doesn't get nearly the attention it demands is the concept of various "Determinants of Health (DoH)." They are institutions, systems, and societal structures that have health-relevant outcomes, and the Woke Marxists have a few objectives in pushing this perspective, which amounts to "society is preventing you from having optimal health and needs to be controlled by Woke Marxists." There are social determinants of health (SDoH), commercial determinants of health (CDoH), economic determinants of health (EDoH), political determinants of health (PDoH), and more (and more). Each is an opportunity to do surveillance, problematize, and seize control over entire systems to be reorganized to achieve Woke Marxist goals. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reveals in two papers that professional associations like the American Medical Association (and others) have designated voting as a "social determinant of health" with "political determinant of health" consequences and have used this bogus designation to justify doing voter registration and targeted voting drive campaigns from the platform of psychiatric healthcare services. Join him to hear about this extremely unethical practice.

Queer Theory is one of the most destructive ideas ever to have been loosed onto our society from the halls of academia, as we have documented in the recent book The Queering of the American Child (https://amzn.to/3K2HovQ ). But do you know the definition of "queer"? Do you know that it's not possible to be queer, only to act queer? Do you know it has almost nothing to do with gay people? Do you know it's virtually guaranteed by definition to encourage pedophilia? All this and more is available in the original definition of "queer" as it is used in Queer Theory. Join host James Lindsay in this episode of New Discourses Bullets, where he reads and explains the original definition of "queer" from David Halperin's 1995 book Saint Foucault: Towards a Gay Hagiography (https://amzn.to/4bmHaM2 ).

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 141

The more one looks at the United Nations, the weirder it gets, particularly when looking at Robert Muller. In a recent episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay exposed the fruitbat theosophical religion (https://newdiscourses.com/2024/04/occult-theosophy-united-nations/ )Muller urged that international organization to take up as part of its Millennium Assembly to define a new world order for the 21st century and 3rd millennium. In this episode, Lindsay goes further, reading a 2005 document (http://www.goodmorningworld.org/earthgov/ ) from Muller explaining his belief in a need for a "proper" global government with a global religion, all controlled by a newly reconstituted United Nations for the 21st century. The goal is nothing less than a Global Pagan Theosophical Theocracy led by the United Nations. The United Nations is, quite clearly, taking this bad idea seriously, which leads us to an urgent need to take seriously the idea of defunding and abolishing the United Nations altogether.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 93

Surely you've noticed that Woke doesn't work. Of course it doesn't. It's not just bad ideas put into operation by bad people and obvious grifters, though, that causes the problem. Woke Marxism isn't even interested in making things work. In fact, it's worse than that, even. Woke Marxism is, by definition, hostile to making things work. It is, as Herbert Marcuse put it in An Essay on Liberation (https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/marcuse/works/1969/essay-liberation.htm ) in 1969, a protest against "the totality of a well-functioning and prosperous society," even against its very Platonic Form. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay shows you exactly where this mentality was adopted by the radical Left that became the Woke Left to explain why Woke Marxism cannot possibly make anything work. It's opposed to the very concept!
