New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 56
One of the best things about reading Marxist literature is that they almost always tell you their weaknesses if you pay attention. A huge focus in the literature of Western Marxism has been on the fact that Western societies don’t have Marxist revolutions because they are stable societies. This allows us to develop a kind of guiding light for fighting against Woke Marxism today: stability prevents revolutions. In practice, this means that anywhere we see instability and destabilization, we should work to counter it and create stability, especially economic, social, and psychological stability the Woke Marxists will use to try to invert society for their own agendas. Join host James Lindsay for this episode of New Discourses Bullets where he breaks it down for you.

Revolution by Stealth was the Fabian Socialist method and it’s worked to bring the West to the brink of full CCP totalitarianism (Elites rule and prosper; everyone else is enslaved and suffers).
Along with strengthening Stability, James Lindsay in his interview with Ben Shapiro identified another critical weapon to fight Collectivist Authoritarianism: identifying, exposing and removing all “infiltrators” who’ve subverted institutions from within. If you could find this section of your interview and print it on New Discourses as a transcript, it would prove extremely enlightening and helpful.
As well, Eric D Butler stresses De-Centralization as an essential strategy for countering Collectivist Authoritarianism:
‘The Fabian Socialist Contribution to the Communist Advance’
by Eric D. Butler, 1964. (49 pages; full pdf available online)
“Big business is by no means antipathetic to Communism. The larger big business grows the more it approximates to Collectivism. It is the upper road of the few instead of the lower road of the masses to Collectivism.”
H. G. Wells (Fabian Socialist) 1920 ‘London Sunday Express’
“The Fabian concept [is one] of an elite of specialists, managers and administrators to dominate and plan society… If the Communist [Fabian]… World Monopoly of Power is to be defeated… there must also be a progressive decentralisation of all power, political, financial, and economic under the effective control of individuals who can then be made personally responsible for their actions.
“[W]hat is the basic reality shared by all brands of Socialists? They all believe in the centralisation of power; they all advance the idea that the power of Government should be increased… Every increase in the power of Government is at the expense of the individual, who, as he loses not only power to make decisions for himself, but also loses his sense of personal responsibility, tends to become more and more satisfied to depend upon the State.”
Eric D. Butler
