Twenty-First Century Propaganda Is Interactive
1w ago00:14:11Tap to summarizeNew Discourses Bullets, Ep. 165 The propaganda we face in the twenty-first century has a new and different character that we must rapidly make ourselves aware of. It's interactive. That is, rather than just feeding you agitation or propaganda in order to engage you, the propaganda methods of the social-media age influence you by giving you contoured feedback on what you post: likes, reposts, shares, criticism, ratios, and all of that. By intervening in what looks like an organic response to your own materials, this "interactive propaganda" environment can lead people down almost any primrose path or even into madness. In this important episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains this new form of propagandistic manipulation. Join him and prepare yourself.

Milestones, Vol. 3: The Basic Nature of Islam
1w ago01:27:09Tap to summarizeThe New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 209 One of the best ways to understand something is to turn to its sources and see for ourselves. We've made a brand of that here at New Discourses, in fact. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes us back into Sayyid Qutb's 1964 book Milestones (https://amzn.to/4xviKeR), which is considered something of an intellectual underpinning for the Muslim Brotherhood and radical Islam ever since. He raises an important question about how seriously we should take Qutb and points out the problem that tens, if not hundreds, of millions of people already do. In this third episode of his series presenting Qutb's Milestones, he weaves a patchwork from all parts of the book to explain the basic nature of Islam, at least as Qutb and his followers see it. Join him for an eye-opening experience.

The Myth of the Blood, Vol. 3: Love as the Enemy of Race and Honor
2w ago02:22:06Tap to summarizeThe New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 208 In 1930, Adolf Hitler's chief ideologist for the Third Reich, Alfred Rosenberg, sought to write a new mythology for the twentieth century that was meant to be the foundational belief system for Nazis. The book he published was the second most important and popular book in the Third Reich, and it's called The Myth of the Twentieth Century (https://ia800405.us.archive.org/31/items/alfred-rosenberg-and-the-track-of-the-jew-through-the-ages/The%20Myth%20of%20the%2020th%20Century.pdf ). In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay continues his "Myth of the Blood" series exploring this book, now turning to Rosenberg's second chapter: "Love and Honor." Here, Rosenberg outlines why the Nordic Aryan (German) mentality is based on racial values of honor and duty as compared to Christian, Jewish, Russian, and Freemasonic values all rooted in love in one form of another, which makes them the ruin of civilizations. Join him for an interesting discussion into the pseudoscientific mythology of the Nazi movement and its strange attempt to ground a positive German identity on bizarre, grandiose lies.

What Are The Protocols of the Elders of Zion?
2w ago00:26:30Tap to summarizeNew Discourses Bullets, Ep. 163 As antisemitic and anti-Jewish propaganda rises across the West (largely catering to recent imported audiences), we're forced to confront its most egregious and damaging source, a 1903 book compiled by the Russian Tsar's Secret Police (Ohkrana) called The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. This fabrication was a bit of darkest black propaganda organized by the Russian Empire's tyrannical leadership between 1899 and 1903. Its purpose was to help the regime consolidate its power by alleging a dark conspiracy of Jews headed by the fictitious group called the Learned Elders of Zion. The book is a complete fabrication, a completely exposed forgery, but its damage has been relentless for over a century. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay explains this wretched book and its impact, tying it to the black propaganda and conspiracy theories of "Jewish Supremacy" still circulating popularly today.

How American Foreign Aid to Israel Supports America
3w ago00:27:02Tap to summarizeNew 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.

Radical Ideology as Therapy for the Humiliated Psyche
3w ago01:34:23Tap to summarizeThe 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.

What Seizing the Means of Production Really Means
4w ago00:27:19Tap to summarizeNew 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. Latest from New Discourses Press!

Totalitarianism and Fantasies of the Sinless Man
4w ago00:24:11Tap to summarizeNew 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.

Where Communism Really Started
4w ago02:05:29Tap to summarizeThe 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.

The Nazi Experiment, Vol. 15: Hitler's Land Equity Argument for Lebensraum
May 2201:46:36Tap to summarizeThe New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 205 One of the things the Nazi Experiment series tries to do on the New Discourses Podcast is to bust popular myths about the Nazis that have popped up in recent years for new audiences. One of these myths is that the Nazis didn't start out with any designs to conquer Europe, which ultimately precipitated World War II. In fact, they did have these ambitions going back to the earliest eras of their movement. In this episode of the series, host James Lindsay revisits part of the fourth chapter of Hitler's infamous Mein Kampf to reveal his thoroughly laid out arguments for why Germany must conquer Europe, particularly going eastward toward Russia. These arguments were made in 1924, a full fifteen years before World War II began as Hitler put them into action after building up his military machine. Perhaps most interesting of all were his stated motivations: a Malthusian population disaster argument combined with a belief in land equity. Join us for another illuminating episode.
