New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 81

We all hear about the pendulum swinging in politics. We’re also all aware that the pendulum is currently pushed very far Left, leading people to suspect it will swing back hard soon; indeed, maybe too hard. It’s important to understand how Work Marxists and other Leftists throughout history have made intentional and productive use of the pendulum swinging. It is their style to arrange affairs so that when the pendulum swings back, it has also moved position so that instead of striking them, it strikes another one of their targets. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks down this strategic use of “the principle of polarity” so we can strategize more successfully and avoid predictable traps.

    What you describe is more of a ratchet than a pendulum. The left has been ratcheting our culture and politics to the left for nearly a century. Each swing to right is merely a moment of storing energy for another push to the left.
