Ep. 36 James Lindsay: Academic Hoaxes, Woke Mind Virus, and the Right’s Flirtation with Karl Marx

James Lindsay once exposed the woke left’s insanity with a hoax. Now he’s exposed part of the right for bashing liberty and even embracing Marxist ideas.To prove it, he sent a conservative magazine a revised version of "The Communist Manifesto." They published it! He calls them the “woke right" because they "behave like the tyrants of the woke left." In this podcast, Lindsay explains why they’re a problem. We also discuss why capitalism is hated, and how normal people fall for dangerous ideas.
