How "Woke Right" Beats the Dialectic

New Discourses ·

2025/07/30

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 121 There are a lot of names we could give the obvious problem on the radical Right that has infiltrated and is threatening MAGA today. It used to be called the "Alt Right," and the Left used that term to mount a successful defense and even recruitment campaign for their causes (remember: Joe Biden ran for president and "won" based on Leftist reaction to the Alt Right). Another, better, term for the phenomenon is the "Woke Right." It is not just more accurate and true,

The Communist Manifesto, Volume One

New Discourses ·

2025/07/23

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 170It is long past time we take a look at the Communist Manifesto (instead of just sending it to dubious Woke Right outlets and getting them to publish it: https://newdiscourses.com/2024/12/a-communist-manifesto-for-christian-nationalists-testing-the-woke-right/). Obviously, this infamous document (pdf: https://www.marxists.org/admin/books/manifesto/Manifesto.pdf) is not the beginning point of Communism, but is the beginning point of organized

Introducing the Nazi Experiment

New Discourses ·

2025/07/21

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 120 What happened in Germany from the early 1920s through 1945 is one of the greatest atrocities in human history. It was so bad, in fact, that it became a symbol of ultimate human evil eclipsing even Communism. This had its benefits, but it also presents a weakness. "Never forget" became "we forgot." In knowing that the Nazi Experiment was abjectly evil, we lost sight of why and how it was evil. To remedy this, James Lindsay, host of the New Discourses Podcast and New

The Nazi Experiment, Vol. 2: Hitler's Nazi Race Ideology

New Discourses ·

2025/07/14

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 169Continuing the unique New Discourses treatment of the Nazi Experiment, which the Nazis proposed as a way for Germany to solve its "Weimar problems," we find ourselves having just learned that the Nazi "World Concept" (worldview or weltanschauung) is "racialist." But what does it contain? In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes us backwards into Chapter 11 of Volume 1 of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf to explain

Exclusion as the Basis of Wealth

New Discourses ·

2025/07/11

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 119We're inundated with messages that somehow "diversity is our strength" and the path to that strength and growth is through "inclusion." We also know that term is a Communist scam, and we've talked about that at length in the past, repeatedly. Well, it's time for a defense of exclusion as it is rightly meant by Communists, specifically the "fundamental right to exclude," which is a pillar of what defines private property. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets,

Communism Is Not Atheist

New Discourses ·

2025/06/23

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 168Is Communism atheist? Well, it depends on what you mean by "atheist." Communism certainly wants belief in God out of the picture, since it believes instead in Idealized Man as his own deity, but that's still believing in an idealized Communistic Man (which is a collective, not an individual) as a deity. It builds an entire destructive religion around this central and Luciferian evil, in fact. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host

How Woke Uses Political Warfare as Intelligence...

New Discourses ·

2025/06/19

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 118Much of what Woke does in practice boils down to a certain kind of intelligence maneuver that might be referred to as "displacement." It's important to understand this activity because it is a bread-and-butter technique of Woke manipulation. In short, the Woke are masters of striking a target and getting the target to believe the strike came from somewhere else, which they will then attack instead of attacking the Woke. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host

The Nazi Experiment, Vol. 1: The Nazi Racial Worldview

New Discourses ·

2025/06/13

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 167As recently introduced on the New Discourses Podcast, the Nazis performed an experiment of sorts (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/03/woke-nationalism-and-the-nazi-experiment/) between the mid 1920s and 1945, when that experiment met its catastrophic end. Framing what they did as an experiment is a valuable perspective. They found themselves in a certain set of unpleasant societal conditions, and they turned to Nazism to solve their problems. It

Exposing the MAGA Civil War

New Discourses ·

2025/06/05

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 117The MAGA Civil War is upon us, as many people have noticed. But what is it? Where did it come from? What are the sides, and who is right? In a recent long essay (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/05/the-woke-rights-elitist-coup-inside-the-maga-civil-war/) and New Discourses Podcast episode, James Lindsay outlined the origins and nature of the MAGA Civil War in unprecedented detail, but it is unfortunately very long. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, he

The Woke Right's Elitist Coup: Inside the MAGA Civil War

New Discourses ·

2025/05/23

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 166MAGA is in danger. It isn't just the attack from the Woke Left that it has to worry about these days, either. There's an internal coup attempt happening, trying to take over MAGA from within and steal its thunder. In a recent big essay published on New Discourses (read it here), James Lindsay explains in unprecedented detail what Woke is, how it operates as a false-elitist cult, how it manifests on both Left and Right, and finally, how the Woke

Woke Right: MAGA's "New Atheists"?

New Discourses ·

2025/05/19

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 165The "New Atheism" movement, which lasted more or less from 2005 until 2015, was a cringey and curious thing, and it has become an object of much mythology, particularly on the highly online, largely Christian Right. Unfortunately, they don't know much about it, leading them to turn it into propaganda for a cause that mirrors it more than many might find comfortable. In this casual episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay goes

A Message to MAGA Youth

New Discourses ·

2025/05/15

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 116"To rebel is justified," Mao told his young Red Guard, loosing them on China at the beginning of the brutal Cultural Revolution. He wanted them to expose the "capitalist roaders" who had ruined everything in the Great Leap Forward and afterwards, as he led them to believe. "Smash the Four Olds!" he commanded, and his young, thoughtless followers did, breaking every taboo of Chinese culture to vent their frustrations with a situation they were led to believe was

The Book of Woke: Critical Hermeneutics

New Discourses ·

2025/05/12

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 164 What is the Woke worldview? It's called "critical constructivism." How is it adopted? The formal name for picking up "Wokeness" is adopting "critical hermeneutics." What in the world does that mean? It means viewing the world through lenses of power as described by critical theory and social constructivism. That is, it means reading Marxian analysis into all perceptions of the world and believing this makes you more "enlightened." In this

What is Agitprop?

New Discourses ·

2025/05/05

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 115Did you know that propaganda comes in more than one form. In particular, there are at least two broad types of propaganda, what the Soviet dictator Lenin termed "agitation" and "propaganda." They're not quite the same thing. Agitation is supposed to influence your emotions; propaganda is meant to make you misunderstand. In this important episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay discusses the concept of agitprop to open your eyes to it. Join him to learn

Totalitarian Stakeholderism, Left and Right

New Discourses ·

2025/04/21

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 163Do you know the name of the "new system" we're all being herded toward? Communism, Fascism, Communo-fascism, Technocracy... sure, yeah, all of those. But these are based on an underlying economic principle called stakeholderism. The World Economic Forum (WEF) "Stakeholder Capitalism" model from Klaus Schwab, along with the corporate ESG gobbledygook, is the most recognizable stakeholderist plan in the game, but do you know its long history and

New Discourses Bullets 114 - Elite Theory,...

New Discourses ·

2025/04/15

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 114Are we ruled by elites? Must we be? Should we be? These are the key questions addressed by a school of thought that's sometimes called "elite theory," or, when answering in the affirmative to the question of whether elites should rule us, "elitism." It's a thoroughly unAmerican idea that is a sure threat to liberty. But what is it, how does it think, where does it come from, and isn't that what Lenin was doing with his Bolshevik Vanguard in the first place? In this

Can Nationalism Solve Our Woke Problem

New Discourses ·

2025/04/10

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 113Is nationalism the answer to our Woke woes? Well, yes and no, and mostly no, and to be that guy, it depends on what you mean by "nationalism." In fact, there are lots of ways to define both nationalism and the nation to which a nationalist program would be ideologically committed. It can be a sentiment in a variety of strengths, which can be quite good and valuable, or it can be a collectivist ideological project, which is not so good. Conquering nationalist regimes

The Book of Woke: Introducing Critical Constructivism

New Discourses ·

2025/04/03

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 162 Woke isn't just a slang term describing Identity Marxist beliefs about the world. Woke is a worldview, a religion. The right name for the ideology and worldview of Woke is critical constructivism, and it was first codified and explained in detail by a critical pedagogue by the name of Joe L. Kincheloe. In 2005, Kincheloe published a primer text on critical constructivism, titled Critical Constructivism: A Primer (https://amzn.to/3YepptI), and

The State of Exception and the Unbound Executive

New Discourses ·

2025/04/01

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 112There's a political theory known as unbound executive theory. It originates with a German thinker, later turned Nazi, named Carl Schmitt. Schmitt, whose political theories were useful to Fascists and finds employment by the CCP in the People's Republic of China today, believed that for a sovereign or chief executive to truly be sovereign, he must be able to exempt himself at need from the general rule of law. That is, the executive must be able to become unbound by

Woke Nationalism and the Nazi Experiment

New Discourses ·

2025/03/06

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 161In many respects, things were not going well in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s in the wake of the First World War. The population was humiliated and impoverished, distrusted throughout Europe, and riddled with various problems of social and cultural degeneracy, not least rampant corruption and the relentless manipulations of Marxism. To address these problems, a grand experiment was performed under the direction of Adolf Hitler, the Nazi
