Hey everybody, it's James Lindsay. You are listening to New Discourse's Bullets, where I give a short

bullet point-like summary of a single topic relevant to woke that we all need to understand so we can

beat it and we're doing kind of a little mini-series on fascism and i want to talk about the kind

of core pillars of values of fascism and those are honor and heroism so those sound really good

it meant diversity in form with unity and content. In other words, you can be really diverse people

But what the point is is that that is no hindrance to them all becoming communists. Communists can be diverse,
