Welcome to New Discourses! We like to think of this place as a home for the politically homeless, especially for those who feel like they’ve been displaced from their political homes because of the movement sometimes called “Critical Social Justice” and the myriad negative effects it has had on our political environments, both on the left and on the right.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 156 Central to the psychological and social construction of both Fascists and Nazis are the concepts of heroism and honor. These sound good, like sound foundations of society. Then again, from the Marxist Left, so do fairness and justice. In both cases, though, we find a rule of totalitarian systems: the virtues are defined in terms of the totalitarian project itself. Under Fascist and Nazi thinking, heroism and honor are comprehensible only in terms of one's duty to the state, which should be a matter of personal honor and heroic self-sacrifice for the collective. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay pulls back the veil on this Fascist dimension of nice-sounding but deceptive language. Join him for a clarifying explanation.

As we have been exploring, the Nazis had a worldview, and that worldview formed the core of their European experiment in the 1930s and 1940s. Underneath that worldview was a myth: the Myth of the Blood. This myth was concocted by the Nazi's chief ideologist, Alfred Rosenberg, and formalized the race-based thinking of the Third Reich. And myth it is. Rosenberg records these ideas in his book The Myth of the Twentieth Century, which begins with a chapter titled "Race and Race-Soul," and it opens with a declared intention to rewrite history. In this episode of the Nazi Experiment series on the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay takes you through several sections of Rosenberg's Myth, showing just how deep the racial rabbit hole goes with the Nazis (to the foundations of humanity, to be exact). Join him for yet another harrowing look inside the Nazi ideology.
New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 155 Underneath the hood of Fascism is a heavy insistence that its program aligns with various aspects of Nature. Generally, the belief that something being "natural" (right or wrong in the assessment) means that it is also good is referred to as the "naturalistic fallacy." That means it is an error. That something is "natural" does not necessarily imply that it is good. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay addresses the weird appeals to Nature in Fascist ideologies. Join him to understand the mentality!

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 154 Father of Italian Fascism, Benito Mussolini, is famous for having remarked that Fascism can be summarized simply enough as "corporatism." When we hear this, many of us assume it refers to an ideology of the state being fused with its corporations. That's part of the economic program of Fascism, no doubt, but that's not actually what it means. What it means is much more concerning and creepy. The word "corporate" and thus "corporatism" come from the Latin root corpus, which means "body." Fascism as corporatism actually means that the whole of society operates as a single body or single organism! The individuals are its cells, the institutions (including corporations) are its organs, and the Fascist State is its Central Nervous System and seat of its entire soul. Join host James Lindsay for this episode of New Discourses Bullets in which he explains this worrying idea to you.

The American Experiment: Federalist 51 and Political Realism
The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 200 Click here to listen. At the end of the day, the magic that makes the American Experiment work is that it is grounded in an astute understanding of human nature and political realism. Almost nowhere is this fact more evident than in Federalist 51, written by either James Madison or Alexander Hamilton in early 1788. In this Federalist Paper, addressed to the people of the State of New York, Madison (or Hamilton) makes the case for the need for a federal government but also one with divided powers. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads through Federalist 51 and explains its relevance to our "anti-Woke" approach. Join him to see how solid America's founding really was.
