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.
