Summary

We hear about equity all the time but are rarely told that it's shorthand for Social Equity, or even "Critical Social Equity." We also hear all the time about Social Justice, which is sometimes referred to as Critical Social Justice. What are these concepts, though? In Woke Marxism, they are the rebranding of Socialism (Social Equity) and Communism (Social Justice), meant to be achieved through Critical Theory. That's it. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, James Lindsay explains Karl Marx's conception of the evolution of Socialism into Communism and then shows how the terms "equity" and "Social Justice" as widely used today reproduce this precise Theory in a new domain (identity politics) under new branding.

0:00.0	Hey everybody, this is James Lindsay, you're listening to New Discourses Bullets, where

0:28.6	Today, the topic is going to be the relationship between equity or social equity and justice
0:34.9	or social justice in woke Marxist theory.
0:38.7	So I want to make the case just to be very straightforward about it.
0:43.2	The equity is the identity Marxist rebranding or the neo-Marxist rebranding of socialism
0:50.6	and that justice when in the terms of social justice as used by woke Marxist because
0:56.3	it's a more ambiguous term as other meanings.
0:59.9	But when used by woke Marxist, what they're saying when they say we need racial justice
1:03.3	is the equivalent of communism as the way in the same way that Marx saw the relationship
1:08.0	between socialism and communism.
1:10.4	So basically I want to make the case that when you hear a woke Marxist say it or an identity
1:15.9	Marxist say it, equity means socialism or neo-socialism and justice means neo-communism
1:23.9	under their neo-Marxist identity theory.
1:27.2	Okay, so how do we do this?
1:29.0	How do we understand this?
1:30.0	We have to look at how Marx looked at the concept in relationship between capitalism,
