In countless lectures and several previous podcasts, I’ve discussed how Marxist activism (read: bullying) seeks to achieve three primary purposes: to drain its target of moral authority, intellectual authority, and/or psychological authority. That is, Marxist manipulations seek to make their opponents look bad, stupid, or crazy. The reason is that if you believe yourself bad, stupid, or crazy, you might doubt yourself, and if other people believe you are bad, stupid, or crazy, they won’t listen to you. The Iron Law of Woke Projection, however, never misses. With regard to this tripartite Marxist tactic, then, the Marxist seeks to position himself as good, smart, and sane, or at least better, smarter, and saner than anyone who might disagree with him. Why? Because he is not good, not smart, and possibly psychologically disordered, so says the Iron Law of Woke Projection. In this episode of my subscribers-only podcast, James Lindsay OnlySubs, I explore this line of thought and illustrate even further why it is the case that the Woke Marxists do not possess the moral high ground, do not possess the evidence or the argument, and may very well be operating from a position of psychopathology. Join me for a fun, short discussion!
