Communism Is Not Atheist
The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 168 Is 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 James Lindsay draws from several of Marx's writings to illustrate exactly what the relationship between Communism and atheism really is, and it's not what most people think. Atheism is "far from" Communism, in fact, Marx tells us. Join him to understand this crucially important point about one of the most evil ideologies ever to grip the mind of man. New book!

How Woke Uses Political Warfare as Intelligence Operations
New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 118 Much 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 James Lindsay explains this important manipulative tactic so you can learn to see it and get out from under its spell. New book!

The Nazi Experiment, Vol. 1: The Nazi Racial Worldview
The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 167 As 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 failed. Miserably and disastrously. That experiment is therefore a warning to the world: if you find yourselves in conditions that seem similar, do not go the way of the Nazis. In this New Discourses podcast series, host James Lindsay walks the listener through portions of Hitler's Mein Kampf to explain clearly what the basis for the Nazi Experiment was, so that we might understand it. In this first episode, he reads from Chapter 1 of Volume 2 of that wretched book to explain the Nazi racial worldview (weltanshauung), which built the state we know and rightly hate on deliberate, knowing "racialism" (racism). Join him to understand and to see how close history is to rhyming again. New book!

In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, he summarizes the biggest takeaways from that longer presentation in a quickly digestible form. Join him to get the skinny on this crucial issue. New book!

The Woke Right's Elitist Coup: Inside the MAGA Civil War
The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 166 MAGA 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 Right is using a mechanism called "elitist capture" to run a four-step coup of MAGA and America that has sparked a "MAGA Civil War" in response. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, Lindsay, as host, reads the near-final draft of this essay with minimal additional commentary. Join him to learn about the threat to MAGA and America coming from the Woke Right and its attempted coup.
