New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 168

We're seeing a lot from the Right about a return to tradition... or is it to "Tradition"? As it turns out, there's yet another example of a twisted esoteric philosophy out there that uses a term we're all familiar with in a specific way most of us don't even know about. That school of thought is called "Traditionalism" and has a very peculiar, esoteric (Gnostic) understanding of the concept of a capital-T "Tradition" that's like New Age turned inside-out and upside-down. Like almost all such things, it is a kind of ideological parasite that lures people into something bad through something that seems to be something good, even necessary. In this important episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay pulls back the curtain on this parasitical esoteric ideology that's seducing good men and women on the Right and pulling them into darkness. Join him to find out what it is.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 167

Most of us, if you are a fan of New Discourses, at least, are opposed to "globalism," but we have a rather thin understanding of what it represents. That's because we're lacking the correct vocabulary, as usual. In this case, the word we need is "mondialism," which is a kind of one-world philosophy. The trouble is, our opposition to mondialism runs in parallel to other less savory forms of opposition to mondialism, such as we see from the New Axis, particularly Russia and the multipolarist agenda, though in the opposite direction. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay introduces you to the term "mondialism" and explains what it is and how it fits into the complicated conflicts we see all over the world. Join him for much-needed clarification.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 211

Hitler didn't like parliaments. Indeed, much of his political formulation was based on his absolute hatred for them. Interestingly, his critiques of parliamentary bodies in Mein Kampf is largely correct, if a bit polemical. This introduces an interesting situation where Hitler is correct on a narrow but important point and then proposes the wrong kind of solution to it, in this case a dictatorial tyranny. Such a situation can be particularly seductive for someone who doesn't realize better alternatives exist. When confronted with a genuine problem correctly articulated and a proffered solution, that solution looks very attractive even when it's wretched. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay continues the Nazi Experiment series in a sixteenth volume by exploring Hitler's critique of parliaments and uses it to paint a stark contrast between the American Experiment and the Nazi Experiment. Join him to understand even more deeply how brilliant and insightful the American founders were at setting America apart from European disasters.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 166

Here in the West, we talk a lot about Islam and Sharia as though they're separate things. They are not separate things. Islam means submission. Submission is expressed through the Divine Law called Sharia. Therefore, Islam means submission to God through keeping Sharia. According to Sayyid Qutb in his 1964 book Milestones (https://amzn.to/4xviKeR), "This is Islam. There is no other meaning of Islam." Since Qutb is widely regarded as the intellectual foundation for the current Muslim Brotherhood, we should perhaps take this view seriously. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay makes this point clear, reading straight from Qutb. Join him to understand that there's no difference between Islam and Sharia.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 210

Moral clarity on the Ukraine War has been difficult for many Republicans. There are reasons for that, some good, some less good. For one thing, the Democrats in the name of what seems to be some bizarre globalist agenda, which is the precise thing many Republicans reject, went all in on Ukraine, demanding more and more support. For another, this triggered an isolationist streak in the American Right that was inflamed by deliberate Russian propaganda to get Republicans to pull back or even to support Russia or Putin himself. In this state of confusion, the truth is often that there are not two conflicting sides but at least three. Here, there are three conflicting philosophies of global organization competing, and the American Right is slow to figure this out. In this important episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay uses as Russian source, Aleksandr Dugin's The Foundations of Geopolitics (1997) (https://amzn.to/4eEmXnG) to make these three competing philosophies clear. Join him to gain much-needed moral clarity on this important issue.
