The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 152 On December 3, 2024, James Lindsay revealed to the world that he had perpetrated a hoax against the nominally “Christian Nationalist” magazine American Reformer in which he had rewritten a significant portion of the Communist Manifesto to flatter their “Woke Right” ideology. In the ensuing days, the hoax has caused quite a stir on the conservative side of the internet, generating a completely unexpected response in which, in addition to deflecting from the hoax and bashing James, many ostensible conservatives launched into robust defenses of Marxist analysis, critical theory, and postmodernism. How good was the hoax, though,

National Divorce Is National Suicide

By: The Posts Author | Posted on: 1 Feb 24

Should the United States split up? The country is more polarized than it ever has been, at least since the Civil War, having divided not so much geographically but culturally and ideologically. The two broad factions in this split are what we might call the “Red Team” (conservatives) and the “Blue Team” (progressives)—the irony in these color designations not being lost on many. Now that things are so divided, might it just be better to go our separate ways as peacefully as possible so we can get on with life? Might it be time for a “National Divorce”? Blue Team
