Summary

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 88 Compliance can be extracted by tyrants from a population through a straightforward method of creating enmity between segments of the population. First, the population is split into those who comply with the tyrant's programs and policies and those who do not comply. If there are enough among the compliant, a demonization campaign we should call "hatecraft" is employed to pressure those dragging their feet to comply and to demonize those who refuse compliance. Perhaps no one in history was more skilled at these techniques, the politics of compliance, than Mao Zedong in CCP-controlled China. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks down the politics of compliance in detail, exposing the malicious tool behind exactly what we have been put through over the last several years. Join him to understand this powerful weapon in the hands of tyrants and how to resist it. New book!

0:00.0	Hey everybody this is James Lindsay you're listening to new discourse
0:13.8	bullets where I give a single short form bullet point like summary of a
0:19.1	single topic from woke Marxism that we need to understand so we can beat it.
0:23.3	And today I want to talk about a really big picture idea, which is the politics of compliance.

0:30.2	I did an essay on new discourses at the beginning of March titled Mouse Politics of Compliance.
0:35.2	I'm basically going to follow through that essay for this episode and that essay was actually written in the hotel room immediately after I delivered remarks at the International
0:46.1	Crisis Summit 5, which was conjoined to CPAC, but is actually separate from it. And I was invited to speak there and was trying to figure out what I wanted to say.
0:57.0	And I wanted to talk about how the medical phenomenon that we are witnessing parallels the identity politics
1:05.2	parallels the political parallels the environmental and all of these
1:10.1	different domains it's all happening the same way and that that method is
1:13.9	actually derived from Maoism and it struck me while I waited my turn to go on
1:18.4	stage literally while the person before me was speaking that I should frame this in terms of what I call now
1:23.6	the politics of compliance which is what I think Mao Zedong developed and I think
1:28.8	that what's happening in the United States is the Maoist style politics of
1:32.2	compliance so I want people to understand style politics of compliance.
1:33.0	So I want people to understand the politics of compliance.
1:35.3	That's the point of this episode.
1:37.2	I'm going to start like I did in my speech
1:39.7	at the International Crisis Summit with a quotation from Mao Zaidong, which is not to have a correct
