New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 162

We hear a lot these days about the foreign aid money the United States sends to Israel, but most people don't know how that money works. Now, we see Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calling to wind down and terminate that foreign aid deal, which operates under a "Memorandum of Understanding" agreement, while President Trump seems less happy about it. Why would Israel want out and Trump be unhappy? The reason is that the arrangement helps Israel in a strategic way but primarily benefits America and Americans, exactly the opposite of what we hear in the propaganda. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay goes through some of the details of the enormous return on investment that money has been bringing to America and how it works. Join him to cut through the lies.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 207

Radical ideologies have many things in common. Among them, it increasingly seems apparent, is a psychological structure that can only be described as psychopathological. In this groundbreaking episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay explores the interesting idea that perhaps what these radical ideologies are all ultimately answering is a profound sense of humiliation (without humility). By surveying ideologies ranging from Russian weirdo Aleksandr Dugin's "geopolitics" and "neo-Eurasianism," to Nazism, to Fascism, to Islamism, to Communism, to Neo-Marxism, to Third Worldism, to Woke, both Left and Right, Lindsay makes a convincing case that these ideologies are pseudoscientific mythologies organized to provide therapy to the humiliated psyche, thus their destructiveness. Using the model, he also offers an answer and a bright ray of hope for a light to lead us out of this darkness. Join him for an eye-opening discussion.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 160

At the heart of the Communist project is "seizing the means of production." But what does this really mean? Is it just taking control of factories and farms and "expropriating the expropriators," as Marx had it, or is there something deeper? In this fascinating episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay takes a unique look at the concept of seizing the means of production in terms of taking control of the production of humanity itself within different totalitarian schema. For the Communists, it's economic; for the Fascists, it's nationalist; and for the Nazis, it's racial production they're seizing, all with the purpose of remaking man into what he was always supposed to be. Join him for this fascinating look into the real evils of totalitarianism in a way few have ever seen them.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 161

Totalitarian projects are peculiar. They're obsessed with telling us who man is and then controlling who man can become from their unique theories about our true nature. Within each, though, is a particular fantasy about who man is outside of sin (and what defines the nature of sin and depravity). The theological word, at least in Christian circles, for this sinless man is "prelapsarian man," that is, man before the Fall. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explores the prelapsarian fantasies of Communists and Nazis and discusses how they inform the thinking of these two totalitarian cousins. Join him for a uniquely deep look into the totalitarian mindset and the strange fantasies of Communism and Nazism.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 205

Where did Communism really come from? Did it originate with Karl Marx? Is it... "Jewish"? The answers to these latter questions are no. Communism arose out of a combination of German idealism and French socialism, and the first documents on the subject were composed in France. In fact, not only that, the first revolutionary Communist was a Frenchman as well, Francois-Noel "Gracchus" Babeuf, who derived many of his ideas for communist life from an obscure French thinker and tax official named Etienne-Gabriel Morelly. Morelly wrote a tract called The Code of Nature (https://www.marxists.org/subject/utopian/morelly/code-nature.htm ) in 1755 outlining what we recognize today as Communism. Babeuf took these ideas and tried to install them through his "Conspiracy of the Equals," which had a manifesto, "The Manifesto of Equals," (https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/sylvain-marechal-manifesto-of-equals) written by his collaborator Sylvain Marechal in 1796. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes you through these documents and makes it abundantly clear that the Communist Manifesto Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote in 1848 had these ideas at their core. Join him to learn the true origins of Communism.
