The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 155
America, we’re losing our sons. A decade ago, the Woke Left arose rapidly in feminist circles and stole many of our daughters, and now the reaction is here, a “Woke Right” that is drawing our sons to Fascism, hatred, and Nazism. It can no longer be denied, and it must be confronted. What draws our young men, and also our young women, to this Woke Right monstrosity? Seductive lies fed into fear and pain. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes a shockingly candid look at the dark soul and evil manipulation of the rising Woke Right and invites you to join him in putting a stop to it.

Thank you. As a Christian, you have explained the spirit of Cain better than many pastors, too many of whom live by the spirit of Cain (in their quest for power/prestige), than by Abel.
Please do not be discouraged by the sins of many you have encountered who call themselves Christians. The Lord said you will know the true believers by their fruits.
I pray that one day you will know Jesus Christ as He is, not just as a good and wise man, but as God Himself.
As Charlie Kirk said, if evil/satan, then God.
James, love your work, but you need a new term if you’re going to truly connect with the masses. Work Right is super confusing.
Why not call it neo-fascism, neo-nationalism, Christian nationalism, etc.
There are countless examples of other branding options, these are just examples. There is a reason Eric Kaufman is making fun of you and the term work right. It’s a dumb term.
Would like to hear more about the woke right use of critical theory. (Specific examples are great.) My opinion is very similar to yours, James. If fascism is the final form of western capitalist society (like neomarxism teaches) then it is so only because the left first becomes successful in gutting the Christian values from the society, throwing it into chaos, leaving the reactionary far right (who believe themselves strong enough) to try to rescue it – with human strength alone. Without this spiritual gutting first, however, the reactionary far right wouldn’t even exist, and capitalist society might just go merrily along its way.
So, the truth of the matter (as it seems to me, anyway) is that fascism (or the woke right) is not necessarily the natural end point of capitalist society as the neomarxists believe, it may more accurately be described as a reaction to the destruction brought to it by the far left.
In other words, fascism is one real-world “antithesis” to the Marxist “thesis” within the real-world “dialectics” of revolutionary logic, which Marx neither foresaw nor understood because his own “dialectics” was only designed to work within the rules of the fairyland of socialist imagination rather than the real world we actually do inhabit: which happens to be a fallen world marred by original sin.
Fascism and Marxism are married to one another in certain respects (in the “philosophical” foundations) but fascism turns out to be a black widow wife to Marxism.
James, how did you manage to twist your self-respect into coming up with, and now presenting your meme : The “woke” right? You’re not fooling anyone but yourself. You have a fine analytical mind. But your manly, “All White” American ego shines so bright…
